Trilly Donovan says he continues to hear LSU is trying to close Donovan Dent, and adds "would be hilarious if they end up being awesome after all this."

I’d be surprised if JD5 had much to do with this. His mom is a handful and is his agent/business manager.

Either way, ridiculous. You don’t own #5 forever at LSU because of 1 spectacular season.

Can't remember which receiver it was, but there's a story from '05 or '06 about one of our highly recruited young receivers in spring ball that came over the middle to catch a pass and Laron laid him out...then while on the ground Laron told him if he ever caught a ball on him in practice over the middle again he'd kill him.

I wonder if this is anything...

I know I'm mostly alone on this and it will never be reversed due to $$ but college football was better/more intense with huge visitor sections in 1 endzone instead or spreading everyone into remote upper deck corners and a tiny section down low.

The only transfer that currently seems pretty locked into LSU is Skyy Clark.

We seem to be sniffing around multiple other guys including Mitchell...but they require more litigation to be eligible.Clark was already in portal so other than the NCAA winning an appeal he seems good to go.

I know Wade and staff are confident, but from the outside looking in this is stressful as hell. The NCAA seems to be playing hard ball with the Euros too.

Some analysts seem to think the PCSA would allow the NCAA to immediately declare all these guys ineligible (unless the player's court proceedings were complete, which isn't going to happen). I don't understand if that's true but if it is, we'd obviously have a problem and would just start looking forward to 2027.

Sounds like Luke Tucker isn’t going to be here. Kinda shocked by that one since Jay loves his LH bats and he was already on campus posting videos of himself taking BP at the Box. Guess we needed room for Schmidt but wouldn’t have expected it to be Tucker.

Skyy Clark seems to be the guy right now most national people are confident in going to LSU.

He also entered the portal in April anticipating this ruling so the clarification that the injunction doesn’t change anything about transfer rules (the ruling doesn’t mean everyone gets to go in the portal) doesn’t affect him.

Complete avalanche of year 5 college players are being given injunctions over last 24 hours. If that sticks, we're probably in the best position of anyone in the whole country to capitalize.

On the other hand, some people seem to think the NCAA is really going to try and keep the new Euro pros out. I guess they can fight in court the same way?

Overall, just a complete and total mess. But the good news is there should be plenty of talent out there to purchase over the next few weeks if we need it.

Pretty wild that we're playing an exhibition game in less than 10 weeks.

Question on draft eligibility rules -

If Schmidt came to LSU for a year, then decided 3 years in college wasn’t for him, could he go to JUCO for year 2 and then mlb draft after that?

In other words is he locked into 3 years if he attends a D1 school or is it only 3 years if you’re at the D1 school?
