You say that like it’s a small number. I’ve started half that many threads on the SEC Rant in 4 years. You doubled that in 20 days.

You’ve started 54 since January 1.

I don’t think Days that great of a coach. He’s had top talent because of a pile of money they’ve bought players with. They’re loaded again this year, so will be Interesting to see how hot his seat is if they don’t win it all. The win it a couple of years ago with uber talented one year transfers

Why do you think it is that you never have any thoughts or ideas to start a thread?

Yea him too, but Day is a transfer machine because if their money. They’ve swooped up Ole Miss RB’s, numerous Bama players, and that QB they had when they won the title was from NC or somewhere. 90% of their starters are transfer

Probably 50 have been about LSU.

Which part was confusing? The fact they have a ton of money? The large amount of transfers they get, primarily from SEC Schools?

Why do you think they get a large number of transfers?

They took 17 this cycle and that's the biggest class they've had by far.

He's above your pay grade. You don't want to go there. Stay down in the muck where you belong.

Objectively this list has to be:
1. Cignetti (he has had unprecedented success with what will likely end up his least talented teams over the next 5 years)
2. Day (tOSU is the only guaranteed playoff team over the next 10 years).
3. Smart (He’s the best of the south and is on his way to being the next Saban).
4. Freeman (charisma and the Irish have the best playoff setup to sell recruits).
5. Cristobal (for 2 years he has refused to leave Miami for blue bloods. He’s a QB whisperer with top 5 NIL to reload every year at QB and Miami sells itself).
6. Lanning (copy/paste Cristobal, he has built a machine and has endless Nike$).
7. Dabo (When Saban left Dabo was targeted before anyone else for a reason. Close to an auto playoff spot).
8. Sarkisian (I think if Bama could choose they’d trade coaches today for him. Sarks has the formula & $ to never get out-talented).
9. Deboer (he’s still growing as a coach and already getting some big wins).
10. Kiffin (he’s never done it all on his own without inviting distractions to his program. If he starts off hot NFL rumors will be swarming LSU by Halloween. If he was capable of truly planting himself he could be top 5).

OSU will have 5 of the top 10 draft picks but didn't win their conference or a playoff game.

17 is still a lot, especially when they are the tops at their prospective positions and only 22 play on the field. You combine that with a couple of similar years, you’re looking at your entire team being a transfer player.

Move Kirby and Cignett up one. Put Day top of Lanning.

Switch DeBoer and Kiffin. Put Cristobal above Sark.
