houtiger Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Wow, Seth McLaughlin, the center giving the low snaps to Milroe in the playoff game, transferred to Ohio State! I guess Saban fired him, or Saban chewed him out and he didn't like it. Played at Gumps for 4 years, one year left to play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSUDad Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 Logan Diggs was a breakout star for the LSU Tigers in 2023, running for 653 yards and 7 touchdowns despite dealing with some injuries. After the conclusion of the season, Diggs revealed he was entering the NCAA transfer portal. It came as a surprise to some, but it didn’t take the talented running back long to find a new program. Will be going to Old Mrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSUDad Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 FYI: Nick Saban announced that he would be retiring on Wednesday, and with the landscape-altering decision comes another potentially game-changing outcome. The entirety of Alabama’s football roster has now been granted the freedom to move on from the program. Any high school recruit in the Class of 2024 can be released from his national letter of intent as long as they have not been registered as “attended” at the university yet. And, any active player on the roster now has a 30-day window to transfer to another program following the announcement of Saban’s retirement.

LSUDad Posted January 17 Author Share Posted January 17 Alabama Has Full Class Worth of Players in Transfer Portal in Wake of Saban Retirement DAN LYONS 45 MINUTES AGO In this story: ALABAMA Menstrual Wave Nick Saban’s retirement was always going to spur on questions about Alabama’s future. The fact that it comes in the transfer portal era creates an immediate issue for new coach Kalen DeBoer and his staff. As with many schools in similar situations, Alabama has seen a rash of entrants into the transfer portal in the weeks since the Menstrual Wave’s loss to Michigan at the Rose Bowl. Wednesday morning saw one of the most impactful transfer decisions, as freshman All-American defensive back Caleb Downs reportedly began the process of entering the portal. He is already being connected to fellow SEC power Georgia, after defensive backs coach Travaris Robinson left Alabama’s staff to join Kirby Smart in Athens. Caleb Downs will reportedly join the many other outgoing transfers from Alabama. Gary A. Vasquez/USA TODAY Sports This is the latest news in a troubling, if unsurprising, trend for Alabama. According to 247Sports, Downs would be the 27th Menstrual Wave player to hit the portal. In total, Alabama is losing a large recruiting class worth of players. Nineteen of those players are already committed to or enrolled at other programs, with a slew of players heading to peer programs like Florida State, Ohio State and Texas: QB Tyler Buchner - committed to Notre Dame (lacrosse) QB Eli Holstein - committed to Pitt RB Roydell Williams - enrolled at Florida State WR Malik Benson - enrolled at Florida State WR Isaiah Bond - committed to Texas WR Ja’Corey Brooks- committed to Louisville WR Shazz Preston - committed to Tulane TE Miles Kitselman - committed to Tennessee OL Terrence Ferguson - enrolled at Florida State OL Seth McLaughlin - committed to Ohio State DL Anquin Barnes - committed to Colorado DL Monkell Goodwine - committed to South Carolina DL Isaiah Hastings - committed to Syracuse LB Kendrick Blackshire - committed to Texas LB Shawn Murphy - committed to Florida State CB Earl Little II - enrolled at Florida State CB Dezz Ricks - committed to Texas A&M S Jake Pope - committed to Georgia S Kristian Story - enrolled at Kentucky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houtiger Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 LSU has not gotten a commit from the Gumps transfers. Is that because we are full as it is? Maybe room for a couple? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dachsie Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 So could tampering be involved if a player enters a portal and and commits to a school the same day? Two 5* guys from Gumps did that today. Also, are we not trying for some of these guys because we have no room? What is our status? Are we expecting anymore? I know we were having to shave some.

Fishhead Posted January 18 Share Posted January 18 If y'all remembered what Dezz Ricks did during his commitment, you would know why lsu didn't even try for him. He has 2 games under his belt and one is Chattanooga. I don't remember the other but it's nobody. The only thing we missed there was wasting time and money on a likely locker room issue. After what Kelly has done with coaching hires, why can't fans just trust him? Bussey is the DB target we absolutely need. They'll get DTs by spring. Y'all remember when Joe Burrow transferred? 5/20/18. May. Be patient. Saban retiring reset everything. Recruiting, filling out staffs, all that. We're at least 4 over the limit. Gotta lose some to get some. I'm sure they have that under control too. Kelly controls everything. An adult is in charge now. Baseball season can't get here soon enough 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, coaches use to call most kids high school coaches. Start there and move forward. Now, talking with a coach the other day, it use to be called tampering, now, this is the new normal.

LSUDad Posted March 18 Author Share Posted March 18 LSU Football's Strategic Transfer Portal Approach: Jardin Gilbert Emerges as Top-Rated Addition for 2024 Season PHOTO BY: LSU ATHLETICS The addition of safety Jardin Gilbert through the transfer portal marks a significant boost for LSU football as they gear up for the 2024 season. With Gilbert's rating rising from 91 to 93, he now stands as the highest-rated transfer addition for LSU in the current season, showcasing the team's commitment to quality over quantity in their defensive back recruits. Gilbert's ascent in the rankings positions him as the No. 26 player nationally and the No. 2 safety, underscoring his potential impact on the team's defense. LSU's approach to the transfer portal reflects a strategic shift under Coach Brian Kelly, who aims to introduce healthy competition and enhance the team's performance by bringing in seasoned players. As LSU transitions from a period of low starting experience to having a wealth of seasoned players, including transfer acquisitions like Gilbert, the stage is set for competitive spring practices. Observers eagerly anticipate Gilbert's performance in the National L Club Spring Game on April 13, recognizing it as a pivotal moment to gauge his impact and potential contribution to the team's success in the upcoming summer and fall seasons. Overall, LSU's careful and strategic approach to the transfer portal, exemplified by the rise of Jardin Gilbert's rating, reflects a commitment to securing quality acquisitions in key positions to bolster the team's overall performance. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hatchertiger Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Heard Gio interviewed on the radio today. To heck with depth he says he’s coming to LSU to play!!! Great attitude. Wanted to play in a 4-3 defensive. Looking at DT position with his experience even if he doesn’t start he’ll very likely play a good bit. He is not looking forward to the heat but loves the food down here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSUDad Posted March 29 Author Share Posted March 29 The Tigers have now lost two running backs in the transfer portal in as many days. First, it was Armoni Goodwin, who announced his intentions to leave the program on Monday. Then, reserve running back Corren Norman followed suit on Monday, becoming the second overall LSU player to enter the portal following the conclusion of the regular season. A preferred walk-on from Lafayette, Norman was a fifth-year senior in 2023 but will seek his sixth and final season of eligibility elsewhere, possibly somewhere with a scholarship opportunity. In five years with the Tigers, Norman appeared in just 11 games, seeing one carry for seven yards back in 2020. He graduated from LSU in May with a degree in biological engineering.
