LSUDad Posted December 4, 2023 Author Share Posted December 4, 2023 LOOK: LSU Hosts Texas A&M Commit, Top DL For Official Visit Brian Kelly brings in Gabriel Reliford for a visit, takes in the scenes of Death Valley. ZACK NAGY DEC 3, 2023 11:21 AM EST TEXAS A&M AGGIES The LSU football staff hosted Texas A&M commit Gabriel Reliford for an official visit this weekend with the Louisiana native making his way to Baton Rouge for a multi-day stay. On3's Shea Dixon first reported the visit. Reliford, the No. 5 rated player in the state, has been pledged to the Aggies for quite some time with Brian Kelly looking to flip the coveted defensive lineman. A four-star prospect in the 2024 class, the Tigers have been in Reliford's ear for months in their pursuit of another gifted lineman. For the Bayou Bengals, their 2024 recruiting class is shaping up to be impressive, but with a few key pieces needed before the Early Signing Period approaches, Reliford is at the top of this program's list. It's no secret the Tigers have pursued Texas A&M commitments after Jimbo Fisher was cut loose and Reliford is one to monitor. LSU has already successfully flipped one Texas A&M commitment after five-star offensive lineman Weston Davis revealed his pledge to Brian Kelly and the Tigers just weeks ago, but what happens now that Fisher is officially out in College Station? From current commitments to potential transfer portal moves, there could be significant shakeup in Texas A&M recruiting with LSU looking to get in on the action. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

houtiger Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 (edited) This is affecting DL recruits, and maybe all defensive recruits to A&M right now.

For what that's worth. Not sure if Reliford flipping will have any impact on his decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big T Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 You literally cannot throw a rock into the portal and not hit a talented kid at a position that we desperately need. Yet crickets from our staff, newsroom, media, what in the world are they doing? Oh I know, wait till all the good ones are gone and scrape up what's left. Yeah that's a brilliant strategy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's a brilliant strategy Umm, maybe they are actually being smart about it and waiting to announce deals once the early signing period is past instead of signing someone from the portal and watching a recruit they've invested years of time with decides to go elsewhere because of a portal signing? Just a thought. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a hidden variable that I haven’t quite identified between year 1 house and year 2. I get it, the players Yada Yada and maybe that is it. Maybe we just need better players. I'm willing to see what happens if we get those guys in and I think we will. This isn't a year where anyone has great expectations. It doesn't seem pragmatic to fire him at this time. Defense looks the same after next season then he has to go. Just my .02 which because of the applesauce brain in the WH means I know owe you a nickel 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houtiger Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I am good with whatever BK decides. I have no particular like of House, but it is not clear to me that the problem was the DC. Remember in Jan. 2022, we had only 1 player in the secondary from O, Sage Ryan. I showed the roster from the Jan 2022 bowl game in another topic in the fall. We signed Welch in Dec. 2021, then brought in a ton from the portal and did well, but then a lot of them were out of years after one year. Greg Brooks, captain, out for the year. Johnson from Ohio State broke leg, out for the year. Chestnut and Harris, quitters or screw ups, Andre Sam, winner. Zy Alexander from Southeastern played his guts out till he was injured and out for the rest of the season. Then we played freshmen, Stamps and Toviano. Toviano and Ryan were both recruited as safties, forced to play corner, now we're at a disadvantage. Lindsey the DL coach, out for the year for medical. We had a dline coach that was not supposed to be a DL coach, and it showed. Brought in 81 year old Pete Jenkins for a consult. At least our DL portal kids played fairly well. Maason Smith did not recover from his ACL in 2022. Wingo went out and missed about 4 games. There were a LOT OF THINGS wrong on the defensive side this season, and I am not sure that Matt House was one of them. Use of Perkins at LB? Somebody has to play the middle of the field. Suppose Perkins was the best guy to do that? A sack is a flashy play, but if you don't make the sack, you have a dud in the middle of the field, and the QB completes a 15 yard pass that goes for 20 more yards after catch because the LB is too slow, that is not good at all. This was Perkins first year as an inside LB, can anyone honestly say he would have been more valuable as a rush LB on the outside? He didn't get as many sacks, but that is not the only way to measure his value to the defense. Well, could Perkins have SPY'ed Jalen Milroe? Hmmmm, I don't know. Suppose you're a DC and after they fire House, you look at what happened and think, how is BK going to treat me? Does he understand what happened? Do I want to coach under him after I saw what happened and how he evaluated Matt House? House didn't have the players, so they fired House. Wrong conclusion.

dachsie Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I see what you are saying but some of his schemes seemed wrong. I don't know if it was his play calling or the players didn't understand it. He rarely called blitzes for example. Surely a player would know how to do that if it were called - they live to do that kind of stuff. I dont know much about this stuff so will let others chime in on it. I know the majority of the fan base wants him gone - of course they want everyone gone most of the time. LOL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishhead Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I'll say this and this alone Last year House was great at in game adjustments. We praised him for it, it was refreshing. This year it seems the opposite. What changed? Personnel did 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishhead Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 But don't take that to mean I think he should stay. Whatever BK says is good with me. Also, fire Steeples yesterday 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
