Seems more likely that he's done with football than coming back to LSU.

They just can't "enter" the portal after it closes. But now the portal straight up doesnt matter when players will just un-enroll at one school and enroll in another. Only timing issue there will be when each individual schools enrollment period closes I would imagine.

Whatever you thought you knew about how transfers, portal, commitments, etc. work....buckle up

Good point, so a player can unenroll after the Spring 2026 semester (assuming in good academic standing/progress) and re-enroll at a new school no issue. I guess the problem might be on the recruiting side of things. Are schools "allowed" to recruit these guys that unenroll? Or is this one of those "agent to agent" things?

Yep. To be fair, I’ve never seen Kiffin with a good defense.

Baker will change that

Kiffin/Ole Miss had/bought a Top 5 defense in 2024. They also had a top 10 offense. Honestly Kiffin should get some flak not making a deep playoff run with that roster. Instead they ended the season in the Tax Slayer Bowl after losses to Kentucky, LSU, and Florida by a combined 13 points.

If he hadn't called those 2 timeouts then Miami probably settles for the field goal with time running down.

Mix in some animal fat (bacon fat, tallow, etc.) with the dry food and he'll probably eat it up.

After looking at reviews and ingredient lists, we've been buying the Costco brand of dogfood for years. No issues.

And then lacy pulls a Demond Williams and joins the good guys in BR

Nah, spend that $2.8 million in the trenches. (Rumor was that LSU was offering $2.5 million and Ole Miss matched and beat by $300k).

Bacon is now healthy.

Two key items in Demond Williams’ signed Washington contract as he attempts to enter the portal and transfer. Washington continues to pursue legal options to enforce the contract, per ESPN sources.
1) The buyout in the contact reads the cost of the buyout is in the “sole discretion” of Washington.

2) The contract specifically states that “the institution is not obligated to enter the Student-Athlete into the transfer portal or otherwise assist or facilitate the Student-Athlete’s transfer to another college or university.”

Washington/B10 isn't winning this one. At least not anytime soon. Sign the guy.

If this is an excerpt from the actual contract, it looks like the agreement is that the player and/or transfer school would be responsible to pay liquidated damages of the prorated amount of the agreement. In this case, if no payment had yet been made, that would be the entire amount. This is the clawback OP referred to, and it would be up to the courts to determine if this could be enforced.

Gotcha. So same situation as the Mizzou player who UGA is suing (he's in the portal again).

Play the player, let the courts settle the contract dispute. The impression I got from the Damon Wilson case is that if a judge decides that the full payback amount is punitive and not damages then the previous school is out of luck.

According to the trusty Google AI:

Key Aspects of Liquidated Damages:
Purpose: To provide a clear, predetermined remedy for breach, saving time and costs of litigation, and to encourage timely performance.

When Used: When actual damages from a breach would be uncertain or hard to prove, such as missed deadlines or loss of reputation.

Enforceability: Courts enforce them if they meet strict criteria:
Damages were difficult to estimate at contract formation.
The amount is a reasonable forecast of anticipated loss, not punitive.
There was an intent to compensate, not punish.

What They Are Not: They are not penalties; a clause set at an unreasonably high amount is void.

Leavitt doesn't look too happy or engaged. Must have just gotten the info that Williams is re-entering the portal and LSU is interested.
