It can’t get any slower than having literally 0 land falling storms in the Gulf.

This would have been a useful prediction last year

---

The season long predictions typically correspond to activity; not location. The total number of named storms and major hurricanes weren't far off from predictions. Luckily, most were fish storms.

I think in one of the first Hurricane season kickoff threads, one of our board experts mentioned that the steering mechanisms and conditions predicted a mild Gulf season.

There is a Cajun meats, boudin, etc… kind of like Bergeron’s in Port Allen going in on the other end cap of that building. Don’t think they have started the buildout yet.

That should do well; especially if they offer some kind of grab and go breakfast. I'm surprised there hasn't been a donut shop opened in that strip considering the morning traffic that stretch of Hwy 30 sees from 6:00-9:00.

Him & Baker both are super high on Benefield. Versatility between all the safeties will be a key piece of the defense again

But but but, PFF said he misses too many tackles.

No contact and the Texas Tech shooter even stuck her leg out.

LSU gets a cut of every SEC win based on tourney credits.

Wade is excellent at evaluating talent to fit his schemes. The man eats, sleeps, and breathes basketball. When he has the players that have the skillsets he needs, he has proven to do more with underrated talent than many other coaches can. It is not all about the big time NIL stars, it is about getting the guys that fit the system. Basketball rosters are much smaller than football rosters, so it will not take nearly as much juice to get this program back up and running and competing under Coach Wade.

I wouldn't even say it is about finding players to fit his schemes. He's just an excellent talent evaluator and willing to adjust his schemes to fit his roster. He was also able to get multiple NBA caliber players to come to LSU.

He inherited Duop Reath and Skylar Mays.

2017 he signed Tremont Waters;
2018 he signed Naz Reid, Javonte Smart, and Darius Days;
2019 he signed Trendon Watford;
2020 he signed Cam Thomas and Alex Fudge (transferred out)
2021 he signed Tari Eason (transfer).

That's 8 players that made it onto an NBA roster who were signed by Will Wade in a 5 year period.

NBA players signed by McMahon:
N/A

LSU is the only SEC school to not put a single player into the NBA since 2022.

McMahon is Trent Johnson 2.0 in a tougher SEC.

While promising rapid deployment and economic benefits, the project faces hurdles such as regulatory approvals from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the fact that no commercial SMRs currently operate on U.S. grids. Supporters see it as a step toward a nuclear renaissance and enhanced energy security, while the scale and timeline will depend on successful execution of permitting, financing, and construction phases.

Nothing a few executive orders can't solve.

Doesn't LSU have the #1 ranked class coming in?

---

That was last year. LSU only has 1 commit in the 2026 class.

And currently no commits for the 2027 class but LSU is the leader for the #6 overall player.

How do they not work? What role does CCS play in these programs which makes it mandatory?

---

I think a part of the financial viability of the projects relies on credits.

It's also my understanding that low carbon footprint products like blue ammonia rely on CCS in order to reduce their carbon footprint and call it blue (or green).

I have been buying the same community coffee bag for many years now. I've never paid over $9 for it.

Thanks for reminding me the news in this country is still stupid 95% of the time.

... a 12 OZ bag for $6.99 = $9.32/lb

That's got Landry's slime all over it. frick him, Nungesser, and their MAGA dickriding to line their own pockets. Carbon capture and sequestration is some of the most bullshite pseudo science green energy crap that I've ever heard of. Just another way for grifters to get free money from the Feds.

---

Billions of investment and capital projects will collapse like a house of cards if carbon capture falls through.

CF Blue expansion; Hyundai Steel (and proposed neighboring DRI facility); Nucor Steel (another DRI facility); Air Products; Clean Hydrogen Works; Southern Energy Renewables (new $1.4B jet fuel/methanol plant).

The politicians in power and big money need it; so the average citizen's thoughts and concerns don't matter.
