We did a great job on OL and DTs. I think this class will historically look great.

I loved signing day in the past. The one in early Feb, where commitments were somewhat binding, at least more than a year. When you couldn't transfer in less that 365 from signing. So today's gains and losses don't swing the meter for me. These kids are free agents, whomever we may have lost today can be back here within a year. I hate what it is, I despise that an entire coaching staff can put in years of work to cultivate relationships and just be left at the alter because we were a few dollars short. I love the recruits that commit, and stay that way because they love the staff, the school and the culture. And I'd love to say that you can win championships with those players, but I can't. You need those elite guys, the guys who command the dollars, and it sucks. Just my very humble opinion.

At least 2 Louisiana players who did not sign with LSU this year will finish their careers here.

There’s a very good chance Jhakeem Stewart is one of those. He comes from a close knit family that’s has a large and influential clan that wants him at LSU so they can watch him play. Signing with USC was strictly about the money. When the start of the 2025 season arrives it will be almost 2 years since he has played and he should be a senior in HS. He will not be ready for big boy football for another couple years.

After the game last night, Matt McMahon told us that Jalen Reed suffered a sprained knee, but now issued a statement saying he tore his ACL and will miss the remainder of the season.
