Does anyone really know what Kentucky is or isn't at this point? They're clearly better with Stein as HC.

As long as they have Joe Sloan calling plays, I'm not too worried. We've watched a Joe Sloan offense for the past 2 years. "Safe" plays, with plenty of empty yards. Kentucky is LAST in FBS in converting on 3rd downs at 13/53.

3rd down conversion game by game
vs Youngstown State: 3-8
vs Alabama: 1-14
@A&M: 3-9
vs South Alabama: 2-8
@South Caolina: 4-14
Total: 13-53

Worth saying again, Kentucky has a total of 13 3rd down conversions through 5 games this season.
Google might be lying but according to Gemini.

This is the 1st time that LSU had has 2 100 yards running backs in a game since 2017 Guice, Darrell Williams.
A few plays late but.... Durham. What are you doing. SPOT THE BALL!

I love seeing how Gage does not let the ball go. When he goes down he keeps the ball and runs it to the ref, ball doesn't touch the ground. Jones does the same.
The game seems like it moves slower for Longstreet.

Yeah he's against backups, but so was Clark.
1129 rushing yards for this team almost through 5 games.

Last year LSU had 1352 yards in 13 games.

Gotta stretch out Brown

He saw the safety and pulled up.

I was hoping to see Berry get another 10 yards. His 125 is the most rushing yards by an LSU running backs since Logan Diggs 134 vs Mizzou in 2023. So as it stands, it's the 2nd most since TDP's 287 vs Florida.

I'm wrong Durham had a 126 yard game.
The Longstreet pass wasn't much better. Though looked like the WR wasn't even looking for it.
Well that was embarrassing for Turner.

Killing the star dominance.
That rush tied the longest rush for the season for this team. And was Berry's longest run of his career. 46 yards.

Impressive that this team is rushing like this without the massive chunk plays.

Gerald’s with another sack

3 more this season to break Harold Perkins's freshman record of 7.5.

Princewill with 1 so far too. Now has 8. Needs 4 to tie Arden Keys's single season record of 12.
Opening day roster will probably be:

Transfers:
Nunez
Bashir
Ugochukwu
Dioubate

5 for 5 Players (undrafted, no pro contracts):
Dent
Clark

International Players:
Dessert
Niang
Ruzik
Levy

Luis

"Practice Squad" (listed on Tigerrag.com):
Jordan Bender
Luke Stansbury

I think Luis is SOL, and the SEC is going to dig in hard to not allow 2-way/G-League players to be rostered. International players are automatically entered into the NBA draft when they're 22, so the SEC has a decision to make. Relevant info: Ole Miss had a 22 year old former professional Australian player cleared yesterday (automatically entered into 2026 draft, went undrafted).

quote:

Australian guard Ben Henshall has signed with Ole Miss, sources told ESPN on Tuesday.

Henshall, 22, has spent the past three seasons playing professional basketball with the Perth Wildcats, but he began assessing his college eligibility once his 2025-26 National Basketball League (NBL) campaign was complete. He attended the NBA draft combine before the 2025 draft, ultimately withdrawing his name and, after briefly entertaining college interest, re-signing with Perth. He was auto-eligible for last month's draft but wasn't selected.

Henshall will join Ole Miss as a member of its 2026 class. There is hope he'll have two years of eligibility, sources said, though whether he'll be cleared to play a second season is still to be determined.


Hopefully, these rulings start rolling in over the next week and people can chill the f out.
For me: No to any tax exemption. No to most tax renewals (doesn't matter, they still pass).

No to unnecessary amendments for things that aren't issues, and/or don't need to be in the constitution.

quote:

CA No. 2 (ACT No. 273, 2026-RS - HB 521) - Allows taxing authority to continue lower millage rate without losing ability to adjust to max rate

Hell no. This will be a tax increase in the long term, and would allow taxing authorities to propose and likely pass higher "just in case we need it" rates.

quote:

CA No. 4 (ACT No. 414, 2026-RS - HB 225) - Sets a lifetime term limit on a person who has served as governor more than one and one-half terms

Sure. Though I doubt JBE will run anyways.

quote:

CA No. 5 (ACT No. 606, 2026-RS - HB 27) - Authorizes retirement systems to apply funds to any unfunded accrued liability, not only the oldest

Seems like common sense to pay the highest interest debt first instead of the oldest.

Yeah I’d say the stats don’t even do the improvement justice, and I’m expecting these numbers to be pretty lopsided by season’s end.

Lopsided is an understatement. In 4 games, this season's team has more rushing TDs as last years' team. Need another 500 or so rushing yards to match last years total rushing production.

Of course, it's not difficult to have a better offense than last year, which was one of the worst offenses in LSU history.
quote:

This is really interesting and I wonder if it's a common problem with some of the really highly rated recruits

I'm sure it happens. But I think Durham's issues tie back to injury and lack of development, not high school competition.
quote:

Forstall left Jesuit for a payday at IMG. He's already unenrolled at IMG. Having followed him for a while, I think we'd be okay with a pass here

I think we could pass on Forstall as well. Give me Matthews (OT) and Henderson.
quote:

He did. Said this was the only player that has not been practicing with the team and wouldn’t be a part of it.

I think it was announced about the same time that LSU signed the 7'3" Israeli Center Gilad Levy (who is 24 :lol:)
quote:

Can he be eligible next season because of injury?

He's eligible anyways with 5 for 5.
