[quote]also not sure why we'd even count a transfer as an "inherited player" as they never played for Kelly.[/quote]

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