Be safe out there today with this weather. Two confirmed tornadoes touched down in New Iberia causing significant damage.

I would offer Coach Prime, $7.0-$8.0M as hesd coach. If they don't, they might be stuck bring Dan Mullens again. I hate it for MSU as them being able to beat teams like Ole Miss and Arky benefits LSU. Before you say they couldnt, Prime is only making $5M at CU with a base of $500,000!!

The contract has Sanders scheduled to earn $5.5 million in his first season, with a base pay of $500,000 supplemented by $1.75 million for radio, television, and public appearances; another $1.75 million for promotion and fundraising; and another $1.5 million for "development of the student-athlete."

Currently on campus visiting LSU & meeting with BK! If things go well & BK gives the green light, I’d be shocked if Denver doesn’t end up a Tiger. Here’s to hoping that goes well & BK feels good about the kid

Go Tigers

I saw a list that showed LSU currently has 75 players for the 2023 roster. That includes adding the remaining scholarship roster players and all the current commits. They may lose several more players and maybe a commit, but at this point they can add 10 more players to the roster from the portal or new commits to the class. As stated there may be several more losses, so the number could rise as high as 13 Or more. That is about 1/2 of a normal class.

If LSU gets to 85 there is an enormous amount of evaluating and recruiting to do in a short time. Of course they could give some of the walkons schollies, but probably not many.

These numbers seem pretty accurate to me. Are you thinking along these lines?

Newly offered transfer portal defensive lineman Paris Shand will be visiting LSU later this week. He spent time at Rutgers this past weekend and will also visit Ole Miss before arriving at LSU later in the week.

He told the Rivals Rutgers site that he enjoyed that visit and had a good time.

Over the past three seasons with Arizona, Shand appeared in 25 games and racked up 41 total tackles (22 solo), five sacks, two forced fumbles and 1 fumble recovery.

Shand will have two years of eligibility to play at whatever school he chooses.

LSU also offered his Arizona teammate, Kyon Barrs.

As a reminder, here's the transfer portal offers LSU has extended so far...

TE Kyle Morlock
DT Braden Fiske
DL Bradyn Swinson
DE/OLB Josaiah Stewart
DT Kyon Barrs
DE Paris Shand

We all know it was a gut punch to have him leave the state and decide to go to Bama. Here’s to hoping we can bring him home! Kid is special

Sounds like he loved the people, place and the crawfish.

TE target Jackson McGohan tweeted that he has an announcement coming today at 3 pm CT I think will interest y’all.

anyone hearing he had a heart attack?

Jalen Hurts perform this year, I am I wrong in thinking this is the type player Daniels can become? Watching Hurts I'm fairly convinced Daniels has not reached his celling. I still believe another year at LSU may help Daniels tremendously. The preceding is my opinion.

Looks like this is Ojulari’s NFL announcement

Josaiah Stewart set a school record in his true freshman season at Coastal Carolina with 12.5 sacks in 2021.

In 2022, he had 36 total tackles, 10 TFLs, 3.5 sacks and one forced fumble. He named a top three Monday of LSU, Michigan and USC.

He's one of the top players in the portal. Rivals has him at No. 37.

Anyone keeping up? They’ve won 7 in a row and are in 1st place in the West. This is rarified air.

Sunday wrapped up the official visitor weekend in Baton Rouge for seven prospects: LSU commits Zalance Heard, Tyree Adams, Ashton Stamps, Dylan Carpenter and Kaleb Jackson, plus TE targets Jackson McGohan and Ka’Morreun Pimpton.

LSU has all of those commitments locked up and nothing to worry about as they’ll sign early.

Sounds like a great weekend overall with dinner in the middle of Tiger Stadium under a tent plus time at Brian Kelly’s house. I saw some pictures on Instagram, I can’t recall seeing a tent like that before in the past on the field. I’m sure that was a unique and fun experience for families.

I’m very confident in my McGohan FutureCast to LSU after this weekend. Sounds like it’ll be a toss up on Pimpton, who is tight with the Vanderbilt staff recruiting him. We’ll also have to see if he squeezes in a Texas visit after the Longhorns just visited.

The next week is setting up to be a big one with Javien Toviano announcing his decision Thursday followed by OVs from Isaac Smith and Desmond Ricks. No days off for this staff as we’re in the final days/weeks before the early signing period.

Today.

Chase - 119 yards
Jefferson - 223 yards
Chark - 98 yards

Studs.

Those guys have to be pretty cool headed, down 20 or so points and rallying to skin against a pretty good team. It takes a lot of faith from the players to do this.
