Four-star CB Kade Phillips has flipped his commitment from LSU to Texas. Just days after announcing he was shutting down his commitment, Phillips decided to flip. An interesting development on the eve of national signing day.

More to come.

More here on a very solid class for LSU but the underlying feeling it could have been even better:

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.

The Tigers are already dipping into the portal as they're looking to set up a visit with a highly touted CB.

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.

Most rating services have this class at about No.8 which is pretty darn good considering the players lost who flipped the last few days

I know the we flipped the outstanding OT Thomas from FSU

Did we flip more players to us than we lost from flipping

In other words did we win the flipping game ?

Mason Taylor has declared for the draft and will forgo his final year of eligibility, he announced on social media.

Taylor was a guy many thought could return, especially after BKs comments about getting some big names back.

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.

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

Rickie Collins, LSU's backup QB, will enter the transfer portal.

Good morning, Tiger fans. It's officially after 7:00 which means the NLI's could start rolling in any minute now. They'll likely come in throughout the day, but I'd expect some early. @Luke Hubbard and I are here manning the news and will keep you updated with everything as it happens. Everything will be posted here in one centralized location. There's a few things to monitor today, and LSU could be in store for some "surprises", some good and some potentially not so great depending on how things shake out.

Prior to the 12 team playoff bowl games were already so irrelevant , now even more so

Seniors opt out so that only a shell of a team remains

Sure the extra practices are helpful,but do players consider it a reward , do fans still travel , does any body really care who wins

Slage Nagle, LSU's TE coach, is expected to accept the OC job at Houston, reuniting him with former Tulane HC, Willie Fritz.

Five-star Louisiana native, Jahkeem Stewart, is announcing his college decision on Wednesday. Right now, USC are the favorites, but LSU is still in the running. Seems like NIL is going to play a pretty big factor in this one, and spending big on a guy who's played 10 high school football games might not be the right move for LSU. We'll update you if anything new comes before he decides.

Sam Speigelman says Keylan Moses has shut down his recruitment and will sign with the Tigers tomorrow. We did hear this same thing from Kade Phillips a few days ago, but he's a U-Lab product, so I think this is different.

@samspiegelman makes three predictions including one on top OG target Soloman Thomas.
