re: Tyree Adams OT enters portal
Posted by MikeTheTiger71 on 12/27/25 at 2:08 pm to BeastTigers10
It’s starting to feel like LSU overpaid their OL and they aren’t happy with the market reset they are getting with the new coaching staff. The unfortunate part of the coaching turnover is that LSU will be less likely to get a “hometown” discount from the returning players. It’s going to be a daunting task to rebuild the entire OL roster. Hopefully the right players are available.

It became too much to bear! It was only two games. Let him cook. Pavia got 2 years worth of Junior college. Seems like he played so much extra football. At least Chambliss actually had something medically going on.
Ferris St had a successful two-QB system in 2022 on their way to the DII championship. One QB had 1500 passing and the other had 1500 yards of total offense. Chambliss wasn’t getting playing time that year regardless. He only had 33 pass attempts in 2023 as well.

The 2 games would not be problematic; you have to miss 60% of the season due to a medical reason, if I recall the rules correctly. I just don't see it based on what he has said.
If he played two games, then had a medical issue that shut down his season, it wouldn’t be an issue. It’s the timing that’s off. He had a medical issue, then came back to play two games. It’s difficult under that set of circumstances to argue that his medical condition ended his season.

For me, Tonsillitis would seem like a fishy reason not to have been able to play an entire season.
Especially considering it supposedly started in August before the season and he ended up playing 2 games that year. It wasn’t a season ending medical issue.

re: So who are the 10 on-field coaches that can recruit on the road?

Moscona said on Locked On that Chris Kiffin would not be one of the 10 so that pretty well answers it.
There are 14 coaches with position/coordinator assignments, 15 if you count special teams. This only answers 1 of the 4/5 coaches who won’t recruit off-campus.

Everyone is an on field coach under the new rules. It’s more about who does or does not recruit off-campus. He may be content not to be in a recruiting position.

Like I said you believe numbers just magically appear and that’s fine you’re just wrong.
I’m sure that sounded good inside your head, but it’s just gibberish. You’ve already said you don’t think LSU is worse than teams who scored more points against Texas Tech, so you agree the actual numbers put up in that game aren’t truly reflective of team strength. You’ve already said you aren’t opposing the idea that the game isn’t proof that LSU isn’t a tournament caliber team, so I just don’t know what numbers you are talking about or what opinion I have expressed that you think is wrong. At this point, you’re arguing just to argue, which is funny given that’s what you accused me of doing.

Look it’s obvious you just want to argue and shill
I think it’s more apparent that you want to argue and bitch. I said something you now say you don’t disagree with, but you went on and on for multiple posts arguing with me anyway. I disagree with your interpretation of the OP and your characterization of the arguments people make regarding the Texas Tech result. I simply stated that believing that Texas Tech is better than LSU doesn’t prevent someone from also thinking that the 24-point margin isn’t representative of the degree to which Texas Tech is better and that the result doesn’t prove LSU isn’t a tournament caliber team. You apparently agree with that. So, again, I ask, what are we arguing about here?

You keep bringing up particular stats as if they just randomly happened. The score just showed the discrepancy in the teams. In other words we couldn’t beat them. Whether it was 24, 30 or 18 points, we couldn’t win that game because of what the teams could and couldn’t do.
You seem to be ignoring the fact that my very first comment stated that it is possible to simultaneously believe that Texas Tech is the better AND that it was a good performance for them and bad one for LSU resulting in a more lopsided score than the true difference between the teams. You are also ignoring that I said that LSU isn’t an NC contender or even a Top 25 team. What I am saying is that you cannot conclude from the one game that LSU isn’t a tournament team.

If they didn’t make money, they would go away. As long as they are turning a nice profit and doing decent ratings, they will remain.
They need to take the money they are making on the games and convert at least some portion of the payouts into direct NIL deals with the players to give them an incentive to participate and perhaps addition NIL endorsement opportunities for members of the winning team.

The opt outs are the best possible thing for this bowl prep and game to provide any value to the 2026 season. You should want every player who’s not on the team next year to opt out.
That’s only true at positions where next year’s starter is already on the roster. Many of these spots LSU needs the current starter to hold down the spot for one more game until a transfer can be brought in.

Or, like I said, we don’t have alot of different ways to win games and Tech exposed that. They pushed DJ outside the pocket and their bigs handled Nwoko relatively easily. We had nothing else to go to once that happened.
And it took a team who just beat #3 to do that. LSU isn’t an NC contender or even a Top 25 team, but there’s no way to look at the margin in that game and conclude it was an accurate reflection of the relative strength of the two teams.

Then what are we arguing here? LSU clearly played poorly offensively in that game and Texas Tech being a good defensive team contributed to that. More than likely they played one of their best, if not their best, game defensively given the fact that only UNO scored fewer points against them. LSU’s 58 output was not representative for either team. LSU is not 24 points worse than Texas Tech.

D2 schools didn't have redshirts when he was a freshman; now they can play in four games and get a redshirt. From what I've read he played in two games hid freshman year.
They had redshirts, but only for players who didn’t participate in any games at all, which is what happened in his actual true freshman year in 2021. He only played in 2 games in 2022 as a REDSHIRT freshman. He wasn’t eligible for a redshirt that season in DI either without a waiver. Supposedly they are filing for a medical redshirt waiver, but I’ve not seen any details of that claim to know how strong or weak the case is.

Sure, if you didn’t watch the game you could go with that theory.
So it is your contention that LSU really is worse offensively than Lindenwood, Sam Houston, Milwaukee, and N Colorado?

But they didn’t, they just beat Duke which proves that and their shooting% vs us was their 7th best this season in 12 games. The more import issue is how we played which continues to be overlooked.
The 58 points they allowed was their 2nd best this season. It’s interesting to see people argue that Texas Tech is the best defensive team LSU has faced, but then assign all the blame for the low scoring output to LSU. Maybe they played their best game of the season defensively while LSU had their worst offensively.

People have said and you’ve hinted at in this very thread that the blowout vs Tech was mostly due to a lucky shooting night. He’s saying them beating Duke proves it wasn’t, that they’re multiple levels better than us.
It can simultaneously be true that Texas Tech is a better team than LSU AND that they played out of their heads against LSU while LSU had an off night. That doesn’t mean LSU could have or should have won the game, only that they aren’t 24 points worse than Texas Tech.
