re: Hard to get excited about any player coming when they're only there for the money, not LSU
Posted by Born in BR on 1/12/26 at 7:42 pm to homemadeshine
I am 76 years old and remember when LSU players, what recruited from high school,stayed for 3 to 5 years and you learned their names and numbers. It is not like that now and there is good and bad in that. LSU is doing what it needs to do to be competitive and whether we like it or not that is the future at least for the short term of college football.

Basically, it is a broken foot. Mobility is almost 0 until full healing.

Sam Leavitt represents a significant injury risk. A lis-franc fracture is a devastating injury probably worse than a knee injury requiring surgery. For your history buffs this was first described by Napoleon‘s military surgeon whose name is attached to the injuryas occurring to cavalry due to repetitive trauma during combat where their feet were constantly bouncing on the stirrups. For a better understanding, I encourage you to Google it for a pretty straightforward description of the injury and possible treatments.

Hold until the refs call it! If they don’t call it keep holding!!

I agree, Ole Miss will probably be the reason. They are trying to put together a bullshite case against LSU for tampering! That would also give LSU a reason not to bring up their coaches to help old mess at this point.

From what I understand, the offense is designed to help the defense also.

Coaching plus not positioning players where they can be most successful.

If their NIL is above a certain amount then they should be expected to pay tuition. After all, they’re getting coaching, facility, infrastructure, plus getting paid.

re: Where did Kelly go wrong with the offensive line?

Ohio State in the 60s would be at least three deep in offensive lineman. They would play/practice as an intact group. That way when they finally were elevated to starting, they had played together for several years. Maybe we should do the same. It would be difficult, however, in today’s financial environment.

His previous division 2 college is barking on providing documentation that his second year was interrupted by tonsillitis, at night, and mononucleosis.
re: How did you 80s baws watch games?

I will take you even farther back. In the 50s, my family lived in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. My father, older, brother, and I listen to LSU on an a.m. radio that had to be placed in the window facing south in order to get reception. The LSU Tiger network was transmitted from New Orleans and could be heard across the continental United States.
re: Lane Kiffin E60… revisit … the new addition
Posted by Born in BR on 12/20/25 at 7:33 am to habz007
The press will always push their agenda. Kiffin has matured over the past 20 years. He is reconciling with Layla and is very open about his Christian faith. I am glad he is in Baton Rouge at this stage of his life.

Who do you think Kiffin should go after for quarterback then?

Value in the ball game is two weeks of practice that Kiffin can observe the players still on the roster and plan next year.

Just wait. I’m sure the dumping down will continue. :rotflmao:

Lane Kiffin and the “LSU brand“ goes a long way even in New Orleans. I did not feel an individual recruiter. Can consistently beat out those two realities.

He doesn’t need the money so he could start in a learning position similar to that of a “graduate assistant“.
