Do we need another OG in this class?

Elliott Porter woke up Tuesday morning planning on taking care of a few personal things and preparing for the start of pre-season camp in Baton Rouge, La., today. But a summons to Les Miles' office changed all of that.

"I got called to coach Miles' office. I had no idea it was coming," Porter said of his being asked by LSU to 'grayshirt' this season and re-enroll next year. "He just told me that they didn't have room for me. I moved out of my dorm today and I am now back home trying to figure everything out. It's been a rough 24 hours."

Sure, but I think he has to call us and get a release.

I'm not sure of the rules once he is asked to grayshirt.

We have gotten at least three such players in the past. Anthony Hill, who is currently on our roster, is one of them. He was asked to grayshirt by FSU and then signed with us.

Oversigning is a serious problem. Especially in the SEC with Miles and the guy at Ole Miss.

NCAA should do something about this, but they won't.

I know they were working on actually fixing this.

The effective date of this new rule was the beginning of this month.

    "There is no inherent fear among this group of players. The fear of failing drove the program from day one - the fear of failing the coaches, the fan base, the university, each teammate, themselves. Now, as we head into the biggest game in our history at home on a national stage against the highest ranked team to step on OUR field, the players are taking an introspective look at themselves. Unfortunately, I don't know if they get it. They lack the fear."

    Terry Lucas, 09/26/22
