Y’all broke or something?

Wait that can’t be the excuse: Because “LSU is Broke/Poor” and we’re doing ok.

I just don’t get it I thought Alabama recruited itself and not the 2 greatest coaches ever and a frickton of Dodge Chargers.

Because the better high school players are already there?

Don't worry, I'm sure you won't need *50* total players to pass our 35.



Even when LSU fans are winning, they're still losing...

High school recruiting is dead dude. They all leave after their freshman year for a bigger bag

The notes everyone should be taking is from cignetti. Which is you recruit high school, but you don’t spend big to do so. And if better is in the portal, you recruit over them with no hesitation

This is true.

And I hate that, as I believe the best way to build a roster is through HS recruiting and relationships.

Now, those relationships mean nothing to the team that lands the recruit out of HS, and everything to the other guys that will offer a better deal after the player has developed some and is ready to play.

K cool. Sorry you can’t get hyped up about LSU signing the number 1 portal qb. Whatever floats your boat.

But: What about the 2025 5 star we signed as insurance? Cant get hyped up for that?

Don’t be a pussy enjoy this shite!

Naw. Recruiting still matters. Matters less if your first

If you are final 3 with a kid, and he decides to transfer out a year or two later, your at the top of the list if you have competitive NIL

Better yet, you recruit winners instead of NIL babies. Cignetti has literally created the blue print for the future of college football. It’s no longer about stars out of HS, it’s who wants to actually win in college instead of collecting checks for a couple years off nothing but promise?

Right. So unless Bama recruited a bunch of high school players that are ready and are a plug and play (unlikely), LSU has the better class.

Oh frick off, there is nothing pussy about questioning Sam leavitt who would MAYBE be starter quality for us pre injury. Longstreet was a nice addition, but he’s also hasn’t done shite to date

I like our OL additions though.

Who gives a shite about the gumps. Indiana broke their program and Texas and Notre dame / OSU feasted on their remains

We shouldn’t compare ourselves to those broke bitches

Oh my bad. You’re definitely not a pussy. You’re just retarded.

The best player in the portal could just maybe be a starter at LSU pre injury.

Huh? We’ve spent more $$ total on NIL that LSU has, more $$ per player.

Our average players ranking is just as high.

Are you referring to the QB at Arizona state, or wherever that was dead last in QBR, Dead last in ever possible statistic, and why we didn’t go after him?

We’ll take Russell a 5 star Gatorade player of the above that kid all day.
