On Wednesday, LSU head coach Lane Kiffin sarcastically responded to a tweet from College Basketball Writer Isaac Trotter, who pointed out the staggering impact that the transfer portal has had on "Senior Night" celebrations.

According to Trotter, there are 22 high-major scholarship players who will celebrate Senior Night this week who have played at just one school, which is alarming.

He ain't wrong.

I know the whole education part is a sham, but how can you legitimately complete a curriculum changing schools every year?

I mean it’s been that way a long time for the big time sports.

The education part is only a scam bc most players come from a community that teaches them to not care bout school. Which is stupid bc most these kids won’t make it professionally and that free education they decided to disregard will come handy then. Meanwhile Most kids have to bust their arse to pay their way through school.

I wonder how effective Lane would have been at ole miss without the portal?

I with Sankey on this one...only one transfer. It's 4 years kids! If you can't go 2 & 2 or 3 & 1 at two schools...then you need to learn and understand the virtues of patience.

I agree totally, 1 transfer. But I would add no Money but hey I’m old school who loved these athletes because they loved playing for LSU before $$$$ got involved.

It's really pathetic. NCAA needs to limit this. I agree with CLK with this. I just hope he doesn't piss off the NCAA

Perhaps someone should provide statistics on the number of transfers who competed with other teams prior to the Transfer Portal being initiated.

This mitherfricker is getting paid $13M. Sure, let’s change the system. Get paid $50k next season

I would have guessed it to be B10 bc it fits the kids they recruit.

Coach, don’t go confusing the poster Boosie.

Glad to see the “portal king” airing his true feelings about the system.

Basically the same as the Texas tech boosters. “We all think the system is terrible but if it’s in our favor why not use it.”

KCT•1 day

You criticize Lane for doing the best he can, given a system that he did not create?

El Jefe de Tu Mama•1 day

Should he not use it to our advantage?

Sounds weird from the “portal king”

Kiffin has shown he can adapt and evolve. He’s not nearly the same guy he was when he took the Tennessee job. LSU is potentially set-up to get him for the prime career period in his life. Unless the NFL itch shows up….

You work with the tools you’re given. You don’t have to like it, you just have to succeed.

Eh, he has certainly regressed the last few months.
