Who the hell downvotes Brian Wilson…
Maybe some of you just don’t understand how funny and what a legend he is.


This is the same guy that brought a 7 foot tall sasquatch as his date to the ESPYs and pretended it was totally normal.

you can’t deny from the outside looking in the kid seems slightly immature
There is no reason to think he is less mature than any average 17 year old. He's making a multi million dollar decision and probably following advise from agents or adults he trusts.

There is NO DOUBT we will have one of, if not, the best, IN MY OPINION, ofense in the country every single, yes, this year included, under the Lane Train!
I paused for every comma in that sentence and it took me 60 seconds to read it.
Kiffin was at Ole Miss for six years and only had three OL get drafted, one 4th rounder and two 7th rounders. Ole Miss also had more rushing yards than anyone in the SEC during that same timespan. I don't know how long it will take to pick up his system but its probably fair to say this is the most talented OL Kiffin has had since he was the OC at Bama.

I would hate to have to see a statue of Cam Newton every time I went to campus. Amazing on the field but an absolute jackass off of it.
Bama fans will be hurt because deep down they know it's true.
Come on... other way around and that is funny. I upvoted!

What do mid-tiers

I think it is stupid to think mid-tier players can't transfer and have success. I also think it is stupid to point to a few success examples as justification why it should be expected. Skenes was the #2 player in the portal, Dickinson and Eyanson were preseason all-americans. EVERYBODY wanted these guys. Luis Hernandez was a pleasant surprise and what you hope to get when you sign these guys, but he is the exception.

Mid-tier isn't the problem, hitting 300 (current BA) as a sophomore at Kent St is nice but in my non-expert view, he is the type you fill out late remaining spots with and hope to hit gold.
I'm no scout but this sounds like the sane type that Jay missed on this season, solid mid-tier stats that you hope translates to SEC ball.

Commit the money to a few obvious big time players, fill out the depth with high ceiling freshman. Use remaining spots on Kent St types, don't start with them.

We have longstreet as a rs fr and landen clark as. Soph. Our commit will be qb3.. longstreet was a 5 star ranked right there with haven in his own class. You then need to look at fits in lanes offense, which the 2 on the roster next yr + our elite commit are probably better fits.
quote:

This is not the same game as 5-10 years ago. High school five star QBs don’t have nearly the same value they did now that we are in the age of the transfer portal. Certainly you aren’t going to pay TWO top tier high school kids to sit on your roster for a year just for one or both to leave. Even more so when you can go pay an experienced college qb to come in and start
Three different responses and I think every one of them is right. Deboer's seat is heating up, he needs this recruiting victory and is willing to overpay for it. What better way to get fans excited about the future than signing the #1 ranked QB.

Bad catching cost LSU another run

I feel like it's unfair to single out bad catching, pitching and hitting have also been bad. Team defense hasn't been good either.
100 seems a lot less crazy then it did one week ago, we hit 15 since then to raise our total to 56.

If you just say Louisiana, how do people know if you're referring to Lafayette or Monroe?
Last year our C, 2B, 3B, CF, #2SP, and several other pitchers were transfers, no shot at a title without them

2023 had C, 3B, #1SP (#1 ever), several key RPs, can't remember on LF and DH.

Regardless, the portal has been critical in both championships amd even if you miss some years, you do it again.

Aggies - Preseason #1 last year to not even making the postseason under a new coach, don't see any reason to expect much more this year.

Tennessee - Similar situation as the aggies the year before, lost their really good coach but still came in with high expectations. You should absolutely expect a slide, how far is yet to be determined but losing 2 of 3 to Kent state is a terrible start

Miss St - Also a new coach, but a proven winner. Personally I am sold on this being a legit team.
The lesson here is don't judge based on early information, do not take this as a reason to trust defense attorneys.
I would have paid a lot for that. It was clearly worn a lot, I don't understand how someone's kids or grandkids could have parted with that but I guess someone needed money more than the ring.
They shouldn't use someone with down syndrome in this ad.
He had a great first game for a freshman. It is way too early to declare him a generational talent. TJ Finley by comparison had a better first game starting as a true freshman (against a harder opponent) than Underwood,

I would place a large wager that Underwood will be better than Finley but don't put too much stock in one game. The experts declared Manning the Heisman front runner before last week.
Harold Perkins would have to have a first team All-American season to be in that discussion. Athletically, they are in the same discussion but performance based it is easily Devin White.
