Appreciate the reply but my question is more over sustainability YoY not just Seaton. I don?t believe we had the ability to write a blank check for 1 player in 2023.

We spent less than 7 figures on our entire 2023 roster. Let that sink in.
Cohen should be kicked square in the nuts.

and to add, Leach didn't like paying players, At all........... didn't believe in it in any way.

He didn't believe in it but understood it was the way of the future. I had a conversation with Mike on that in July of 22. He railed on it for about 15 minutes on how stupid it was and finished it with, "But if we don't, I'll have to win with little Timmy Sanders who runs at 5.8 and has the hand eye coordination of a blind 17 nun. And even I can't win with that little"

Agree, and thats just for one of many reasons. What a lousy AD he was for us.

No wonder he was talking about throwing midgets over the offensive line! LOL.

Brandon Sneh in the boat. A good get, but not indicative on Seaton in any way. We needed another OT after James transferred.

Thanks for updating the thread and putting it in context.

Glenn West:

I honestly don't have a great feel on Seaton now. Oregon in the mix, so is Miami but him leaving LSU without signing was not what I expected on Monday. Thought Tigers would close and heard Seaton was really impressed with that visit. We'll see but it's a toss up right now.

Do you think we have a chance? I've been told we have moved on. I appreciate the effort, but we have other holes to fill.

[Goldendawg]

Our former safety, Mitchell, has signed with OM. There is a free article from yesterday on Genespage showing the landing spots, or lack thereof, for many of our former players. I regard going to another SEC program as a lateral move, or even an upgrade, for a player who has gone to Alabama. The vast majority that have found a home have really stepped down a level or two from the SEC. About ten have landed nowhere to date. This is a real indictment of our poor evaluation, recruiting, or just taking warm bodies for a practice squad for about the last three years.

No. Both sides have moved on.

[HancockCountyDog]

Jayvin James to Alabama, as we all expected.

I gotta admit, I didn't expect most of our OL to sign with Mizzou and or Bama.

So we lose:

Owens - Mizzou
James - Bama
Work - Mizzou
Jimothy - Cal

We gain

Dent
Matthews
Prudhomme
Nash
McVay
Miller
Chester
Sneh

No clue how this will work out, but the OL market must be rough out there if Bama and Mizzou are signing our OL.

[BlackSailsDawg]

Caleb Unger just committed! That's 2027 IOL 4 star

[Thick]

From MRA?? He?s a 3 star

An update on Seaton from Matt Moscona:

Seaton is leaning towards Oregon.

How you should read this is: "Seaton isn't coming to LSU. I don't really care where he goes so I'll just go with the team that was mentioned after us."

We're still in this thing. Do I think we get it across the finish line? 50/50. But we're in it.

Did he ever actually visit Oregon? Or did Lanning just visit him?

Lanning visited him. He didn't go to Eugene.

I thought both sides had moved on.

State was his favorite visit, but Lebby had to guarantee 10 wins and a playoff spot to get his signature!😂😂😂

“ Sure man, we are getting 10 wins and a playoff spot. Have a seat Mr.Seaton”

[TaleofTwoDogs]

I think he has that backwards. We guarantee the money, he guarantees the 10 wins.
