We have padded some stats on offense (like other teams) but on defense we've done the opposite by playing so many backups late. LSU's D is better than the stats indicate.

re: NFL to college: An opposing view

When the narrative is limited to "LSU is signing NFL players", it sounds absurd. Oh well, embrace the villain role.
quote:I would agree if the NCAA excluded the entire 2022 class from the 5 for 5 rule. The problem is the NCAA grandfathered in nearly all 2022 signees and excluded the ones that attempted to go to the next level believing their college eligibility had run out.
Maybe an unpopular take, all of them should be ineligible.
As long as this ruling applies this year only, I think it is a very reasonable decision by the courts.
NFL to college: An opposing view
Posted by eelsuee on 8/24/26 at 8:31 am
This may be unpopular but I think there is a better case for these guys than what the media is portraying.
Players had to declare for the NFL draft by 01/14/26
NFL draft was held on 04/23/26
NCAA announced and approved the 5 for 5 rule on 06/23/26
Take a hypothetical player who played all four years at Southeaster who didn't even bother to declare for the draft, it seems everyone is ok with them unexpectedly getting a 5th year and taking advantage of it.
Now take a hypothetical player who played all four years at Tulane who did declare for the draft but got no invite, it seems everyone is ok with them unexpectedly getting a 5th year and taking advantage of it.
Now take a hypothetical player who played all four years at Ole Miss who also declared for the draft and was not good enough to get drafted but got an UDFA invite. This is the OBVIOUS line that shouldn't be crossed that they are able to return for an unexpected 5th year?
Had the NCAA announced the rule much earlier, it would be clear that a player deliberately gave up any remaining eligibility by participating in the draft. Now players that aren't good enough to get a call from the NFL have the option of returning, the players good enough to make an NFL roster have no reason to return, and the ones stuck in the middle should lose out on the option in the court of public opinion.

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.

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
Air Force

all have in common?
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: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.
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

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.

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.
