What I’m hearing about Demond Williams
Posted by The_Whispers on 1/7/26 at 3:13 pm
Apparently Lane and company have had eyes on Demond for awhile, but then when he re signed with Washington the focus shifted to Sorsby, Leavitt, and possibly Chambliss.
As I’ve stated the staff really liked Sorsby, but, and a very big but here they weren’t going all out financially. It already leaked what Lane and company offered him. Now you see what we are offering Demond. Pretty big difference there.
What really sparked this is Sorsby’s back out. I’m told he gave a commitment to LSU while on his visit and backed out of that once TTU came in calling with an upped offer.
This ticked everyone off and thus Demond is circled back too, with Lane getting the big money people organized and such. This time the money we are willing to spend will be all out for him.
In regards to Leavitt, he really likes LSU, but I keep hearing that some things off the field whether that’s with the brother or character issues (insert Bo Callahan here) and obviously health make it hard for LSU to fully commit to HIS asking price. Still doesn’t mean they don’t want Leavitt or told him no, but it’s pretty obvious he’s the fall back option.

Hearing we are closing in on Eugene Wilson with a deal
Posted by The_Whispers on 1/5/26 at 3:03 pm
Staff still trying to get Brown down here.
Some updates on portal players
Posted by The_Whispers on 1/4/26 at 8:25 pm
Good evening everyone. Lot of movement lately with some things. Spoke with 2 guys 45 mins ago and here is some info:
In regards to the OL:
Was told Lane personally told all of the linemen that they will be re evaluated. Which means NIL changes, no starting promises and some processing of players.
With the firing of Brad Davis added to that that is why you see the OL leaving in bunches. Hearing staff may try to keep Tyree Adams and Weston Davis obviously already coming back.
In regards to WR:
Looking to take 6-7 WRs through the portal.
Jackson Harris on board. I’m expecting strong possibility of Duce Alexander, Winston Watkins from Ole Miss. So there’s 3 with probably 4 more left. Wilson from Florida mentioned.
In regards to RB:
I mentioned in my last thread a week or so ago Caden Durham was considering entering the portal. Looks like that came to fruition sadly. However, I’m expecting LSU to take 2 RBs in the portal. Kewan Lacy being the obvious one. Also, have heard Juju Johnson is wanting to see if he can get looks at QB from a D1 program before making a decision on returning to LSU.
In regards to QB:
I’ve been told the top 3 was always 1. Chambliss, 2. Sorosby, and 3. Leavitt.
I mentioned in my thread that Lane and company were confident Chambliss would be approved, but Ole Miss is doing some sketchy things behind the scenes and with his recent play he becomes tougher to land.
Staff loved Sorosby, and had some concerns on Leavitt off the field issues. So Sorosby was the target over Leavitt. Looks like Tech swooped in last min, looking to hear more details on it.
Side Note:
Chaz Coleman has a bag for him waiting. LSU is wanting to make a splash at edge. Thought it was Stewart because he was all NIL but SC shockingly ponied up.

re: Some rumblings and updates in regards to portal players
Posted by The_Whispers on 12/21/25 at 12:02 pm to tigerbait2010
I personally haven’t heard much in regards to Berry. No news is good news kind of deal I would say.
I fully expect Frank to come after Berry, but Berry is from Louisiana and I know LSU has the NIL advantage over Ole Miss as well. My gut says Berry stays
You could see something when LSU announces more players for the Nike Blue Ribbon deal. Pickett and Green are already on there, which basically is ensuring they are locked down.

Some rumblings and updates in regards to portal players
Posted by The_Whispers on 12/21/25 at 11:31 am
Obviously Lacy to LSU likely.
Here are some others things going around I thought I would share.
Hearing LSU and Lane are very very confident on Trinidad waiver situation. Diego Pavia situation helped lot with this. With this, I expect Chambliss to be LSUs starting QB next season. However, Austin Simmons and camp still monitoring situation. Wants to come to LSU but if Chambliss waiver granted likely ends up at Miami or Florida.
Ole Miss WRs Duce Alexander and Winston Watkins are likely to LSU. Apparently Alexander and the weeks bros have some connections I’m told.
Dylan Stewart was always transferring no matter what. Lucas gives us an edge, but this one all about NIL at the end of the day. We will have to fight Ohio State and Texas. Never know.
Also something I want to note, hearing Caden Durham is considering entering the portal. He loved Frank, and always was a home town guy being from Oklahoma. Eric Morris of Oklahoma St trying to make a splash of Durham and Mestmaker through the portal. Oklahoma will probably try to as well. Hope Lane and company can find a way to keep him.

Looks like the time has come. LSU gets there guy.
For anyone that cared I’m glad I was able to share some info and it was pretty entertaining reading through this site.
Had been a lurker here and a buddy of mine said they would go crazy for info you could possibly share. So here we are.
I’ll probably share a post later this evening or early morning about the process of LSU hiring Lane and some of the other things discussed. Similar to this post when Kelly was let go.
Geaux Tigers!

I’m saying announcement in regards to LSU saying we have hired Lane or Ole Miss saying he’s leaving. Like I said you might get leaks.
Lane said he would make his decision, but not that it would be announced by him to the whole world
Hold the line.

In regards to the Lane announcement
Posted by The_Whispers on 11/29/25 at 12:46 pm
In my last post probably around a week and a half ago I mentioned we scored when we were in the red zone.
Lane begged Verge and company to let him finish. Ole Miss also didn’t have the guts to push Kiffin out. Can’t blame them actually. And there was some contract issues with this as well.
However where we stand right now is that Layla will be in BR some point today. That is a fact.
From what I can understand Lane will be meeting AD to talk over scenarios and tell him in person he will take LSU job. However I have heard lane will be in Oxford until after the iron bowl supposedly now, just in case there was a scenario he would have to prep for an SEC title game. This if happened would cause a very weird scenario where LSU announces Lane on Monday, but he coaches Ole Miss in the title game and Ole Miss hires a new coach. Yes, that is a scenario. So, you will not hear anything ground breaking. Maybe some leaks like with football scoop already but not like a Chris Low or Thamel bomb until at least after the iron bowl.
Bottom line, let’s cheer for Alabama tonight and keep waiting like we have.
I’d circle Monday for major announcements

Keep a look out for these 3 QBs possibly in the portal
Posted by The_Whispers on 11/22/25 at 10:33 pm
Many now understand that we will 100 percent be getting a transfer QB.
Here are some names to keep on your radar:
Devon Dampier (Utah)
Turn on the film and this guy stands out. Great throwing mechanics, can run with the best of them. 120 yards, 78 yards, and 65 yards rushing on the 3 ranked teams they have faced. 10th in QBR, worked on his downfield passing and it shows. 17 TD, 5 ints. 543 rush yards 5 TDs.
Sam Leavitt (AZ State)
Have heard personally LSU with Lane are gonna try to make his next Jaxson Dart. Tougher year due to injury but still very effective. 10 TDs, 3 ints in only limited games played. Fits the system.
Keelon Russell (Alabama)
Good relationship with Lane and company. Elite upside and some rumors of him looking to stay in the SEC if departing from Alabama.
I’ll keep this updated

Posted by The_Whispers on 11/21/25 at 12:03 pm
I’ve been mentioning we have been in the red zone. We have scored a TD and even gone for 2 and got it.
Very surprised we were able to pull this off with everything surrounding this. If they announce today I would be shocked but it’s definitely gonna start breaking here soon I would think.
Keep an eye on Sam Leavitt. Could be Kiffins Jaxson Dart 2.0. NIL package we promised for Kiffin is elite.

Update on the Lane situation as of now
Posted by The_Whispers on 11/18/25 at 1:37 pm
Good afternoon been a wild past 16 hours or so. Quite a bit of info and speculations going on. I mentioned on my last post here on 11/16/25 that there were heavy discussions and things got more serious in regards to Lane becoming the LSU coach.
Here’s my update as of now:
Right now at this second, there is Nothing signed. This is not a done deal. People telling you otherwise are simply pushing the button too quick. In that post I said we are in the red zone. We still remain in that situation. The longer this plays out the better for LSU. Ole Miss knows this and that is why they keep pushing this ultimatum. This put a little curveball in this process possibly speeding it up. Hold the line and don’t get your hopes up just yet. However I will say this, it is not a smoke screen. Lane is legitimately interested
Moving a little off the topic, it seems like more people are catching up to the Kenny Dillingham smoke I’ve been saying. He’s been heavily discussed with higher ups outside of Kiffin for awhile since at least late October when this whole process started. 10/27/25

We suck in the red zone. I guess that means he's Florida bound.
I laughed pretty good at this.
I’ll tell you this Florida is not being as patient as LSU is. They want Lane now, they keep pushing for a decision. The more this drags out the more it favors LSU. Florida is not gonna be bowl eligible. They also have Kliff heavily interested and the more they wait on Lane the more chance they lose Kliff. Remember Florida has had more time than LSU to get this search going.
Kiffin and LSU getting into deeper discussions
Posted by The_Whispers on 11/16/25 at 9:16 pm
A call earlier this morning went very good supposedly. Florida still pushing, but we are in the red zone though.
LSU highest offer on the table.
I’d bet strongly Lane will not be coaching at Ole Miss after this season. Whether that’s NFL, LSU or Florida he will be gone.

LSU people aren’t mad at Freeman for taking the ND job. They are a little in their feels with how he handled an interview in 21’ and his wife dogging on BR. Also with how he poached Denbrock. Although he wanted to be closer to family.
Might be petty, but that’s how stuff like this works.

Drink would bear crawl to BR right now if offered.
That’s about as worse as this will get.
So if LSU strikes out 3-4 candidates. It will at worse be Drink. I wouldn’t say that’s mid, maybe a little disappointing if anything

Auburn is looking seriously at Dillingham supposedly as well. Will be interesting to see if they have that ability to pull him from his Alma mater
