The US imports about the same amount of oil it exports daily. Stop importing foreign oil.

Time of possession. The defense gets a stop and go straight back on the field. 3 and outs and turnovers are killing them.
re: If DeBoer keeps Milroe as starter Elko is a better hire b/c Elko is a leader

Is Elko a better hire than Saban? Saban tried to bench Milroe last year. Nearly got the second and third string qbs killed when the offensive line quit during the USF game.

The defense is learning a new system with several freshmen starting or playing significant minutes. The offense is a mixture of last year’s offense with sprinkles of the new system. And Milroe is just not a good quarterback. He is 10 percent highlights and 90 percent bad.

Not sure what's funnier. You pretending women's basketball and softball are major sports, or you pretending that LSU is your alma mater. :rotflmao:

also not sure why we'd even count a transfer as an "inherited player" as they never played for Kelly.
Because it's what he started with when he took over. Transferred out because Kelly brought in transfers. Kelly did a great coaching job that year. Why embellish what he did that year with false claims?

I mean it may have been more like 42 or so, that's not a huge difference really.
It was 52. I get it, LSU fans heard during the bowl game that they only had 39 scholarship players and took that to mean only 39 left. But to keep parroting that number after an LSU writer wrote the actual number is a bit hard to understand.

Per the 247 Team Talent Composite, 2022 LSU started the year with 72 scholarship players.
The self imposed scholarships. And a couple transferred out after spring. But 39 is not true according to the LSU GEAUX247 site. Sporting News had the same numbers.

He had to recruit draft eligible players to stay with the program and not bolt
So he did what every coach has to do. Sit down with the draft eligible player and look at their projected draft spot and tell them they would be better coming back.

when LSU played the bowl game
Yes, LSU played a bowl game with 39 scholarship players that were willing to play or physically able to play. But Brian Kelly did not inherit a team with only 39 scholarship players.

That article is just wrong.
LSU never had 85 scholarship players in 2022, and we signed 32.
They didn't have 85. They were still suffering from the self imposed scholarship reduction of 8 scholarships.

You didn't break down the roster. After the link was posted you said you would go by what you were told and then you disappeared from the thread.

With 52 scholarship players returning, the new staff was then able to build out the roster through high school signees and transfer portal additions. With 25 new signees already inked, and seven more spots remaining to reach the 32-man signing cap, the Tigers are now up to the 77 scholarship number listed above.

You had 39 available for the bowl game because of injuries and opt outs. Continue the lie if you wish.

The 39 scholarship players has been proven to be not true.

Also looked up Alabama and Georgia. Similar SEC schools. They both had similar numbers returning. Leaving early for NFL and transfers out.
