National Recruiting Day and this is the most recruiting talk today on tRant.

damn it, I wanted to talk ball until this basketball starts.

Nice of you not to mention Bussey

I’ll give you the pulse over here.

We’re pretty stoked about the coaching staff & this offseason in terms of firings, hirings, and retentions. Top 3 recruiting class in ‘24, ‘25 #1 overall potential — looking like good years for the state in general in terms of talent.

Anxious to get back to nasty defense but cautiously optimistic basically since 2020 (feels bad man).

It will probably take more than a year to turn it around completely, retaining staff is important.
Best case scenario for ‘24, offense is good enough to win it all with a top 60 defense & we field a top 60 defense.

Worst case scenario, offense looks like last year but defense falls flat again. Sloan or Hankton get offered an NFL job just in time for the defense to really come together in 25.

Again, can’t really stress it enough: whether or not we can maintain consistency on this staff (at least 3 years with Sloan & Baker, probably also Davis/Peoples) will determine whether Kelly goes on a multi-natty run at LSU vs HC with 0 career natties.

Prepare to be letdown. We don't have the WR threats of last season and no RB has proven to be an elite star just yet. Nuss will take some lumps in first season as QB1. Defense will be improved but probably average at best. I look for a rough 2024 season before a return to form in 2025.
