Rattler's a good QB, that would be a good pickup for them.

Certainly didn't have Spencer Rattler as the 2022 opening day starter for Nebraska 3 months ago

Oops, by the time I posted about Mickey Joseph yesterday, we'd already re-hired Frank Wilson for our New Orleans hookup.

This is a good move by Kelly--it should give us a higher caliber athlete from New Orleans for him to kill.

is he though? I think he's pretty meh in terms of talent/ability. don't see anything special there. he also seems like the biggest dochebag of all-time. Caleb Williams- now that kid passes the eyeball test. he can do things that just make you go whoa.

Most Latin American countries have a version of picadillo.  Mexican picadillo has raisins, and no olives.  That's primarily what you'll find here in Texico.


Yesterday I posted my dad's recipe for picadillo on the recipe thread.  Mexican version, with raisins and no olives.

That's the name of the game.  You wanna kill the best, you gotta recruit the best.

Yikes.....you folks who are optimistic about Kelly at LSU, I hope you're right.  

We lost Corey Raymond last night and then Kevin Faulk today.  I wouldn't expect many of you to remember Raymond unless you know our coaches for some reason, but those of you who are old enough might remember Faulk's playing days at LSU.  He was the first domino to fall, so to speak, when DiNardo changed the narrative that Louisiana kids don't have to leave for Miami, Nebraska, etc.  Getting Faulk was a big, big deal.  He was the first big hometown kid of my lifetime to stay put, and he made it cool for LA kids not to bolt.  Raymond has been the best DB coach in the business, imo....we just lost him to Florida.  He's a stellar recruiter.

It seems like at least Raymond (probably Faulk too, if I had to guess) wanted to stay.  Doesn't sound like Kelly is getting along with the legacy people around the program.  Regardless of his evaluations, he's going to learn--potentially the hard way--these Louisiana high school coaches are some spiteful SOBs who don't like it when their "people" are removed.  New Orleans area in particular is famous for actively steering kids away from LSU.  He's going to learn how much influence they have on their players too.  Kelly better know what he's doing.  Inferior talent couldn't save him at Notre Dame and it sure won't save him in the SEC.  There's no way this doesn't cost us, both in this class and going forward.  And whoever this guy from ND he's bringing in to coach DBs is not better than Raymond.  

10 out of 10 for signaling that this is his show and everybody else can STFU, tho.

Kelly is not a guy people generally want to work for, there are numerous stories out there.  Hasn't stopped him from winning yet though

He's a great head coach but he doesn't strike me as the CEO and delegate kind of guy. He's the in control of everything kind of guy.

Doesn't he still have to sit out a year?  Or is he a grad transfer? I know the portal changed the rules a little but I thought they still had to sit out.

New rule is you get one freebie transfer.  Anything beyond that, you have to sit out.

He's use to recruiting kids nationally and as i understand it LSU is more of a provincial lean.He might want to get a little chummy with the locals instead of treating them like lepers
