In the ever-evolving landscape of "Wide Receiver U," the 2026 offseason has marked a seismic shift in how the Tigers reload their arsenal. After seeing key departures to the NFL Draft and the portal, Lane Kiffin and his staff didn't just look for replacements—they orchestrated a complete overhaul that has secured LSU the top-ranked transfer class in the country. By landing explosive playmakers like Kansas State's Jayce Brown , Florida’s dynamic Eugene "Tre" Wilson , and high-

Listen: if you still have a hangover from the 2025 National Championship celebration, drink a Pedialyte, grab some water, or maybe just keep drinking. Jay Johnson and Nate Yeskie didn’t spend the summer at Fred’s; they spent it reloading a pitching staff that is somehow deeper than the 2023 squad that featured Paul Skenes. With Kade Anderson and Anthony Eyanson off to the league to get paid, the 2026 staff is a mix of "Super Sophomores" who throw gas, elite transfer portal sn

If you’ve been following LSU basketball lately, you know the vibe: it’s been a lot of "if only." If only a few shots had dropped against Kentucky, or if they’d closed out that late lead against Arkansas on Saturday. But tonight against Mississippi State, "almost" isn't going to cut it. This is a massive "get right" game at the PMAC. The Good News: Dedan is Back The biggest reason for optimism is that Dedan Thomas Jr.  finally looks like himself again. After missing those five

Exhale, Baton Rouge. We finally have a conference win. After a brutal 0-4 start to SEC play that featured a gut-wrenching, one-point loss to Kentucky just days ago, Matt McMahon’s squad finally put it all together on Saturday. LSU (13-5, 1-4 SEC) took it to Missouri from the jump and walked away with a 78-70 victory that felt like a massive weight coming off the program's shoulders. It wasn't just that they won; it was how they did it. This team looked like they actually enjo

Manage the Zone Coach Jay Johnson’s philosophy is basically mental warfare. They call it "managing the zone," but really, it’s just LSU batters standing there, refusing to swing at bad pitches until you’re forced to throw a middle-middle fastball. The approach that Coach Johnson implements helps the Tigers get plenty of walks, hit-by-pitches, and hits. The Everyday Players • Derek Curiel:  Curiel’s strike-zone awareness was elite as a freshman; he laid off anything that he co

As the 2026 baseball season approaches, the Tigers  have to replace half of their everyday  starters. The outfield  is the only position group where the starters are already clear. You have Derek Curiel  making the move from LF to CF, Chris Stanfield moving from CF to LF, and Jake Brown locking down RF. These three might be the best outfielders in the SEC—and probably the country. They possess pure speed and should be able to run down baseballs hit in the gap all year long, t

Look, the reality of LSU basketball right now is a bit of a grind. The Tigers are 0-3 in the SEC, and the injury report is a mess. But if you’re planning to skip tonight because the vibes are low, you’re looking at it the wrong way. Kentucky is coming to the PMAC tonight for a 6:00 PM tip-off. Here’s the actual reason it’s worth heading over. The Stakes are High Starting 0-3 in conference play is a hole, but beating Kentucky at home is the fastest way to dig out of it. This i

If you listen closely, you can hear it. It’s the sound of every other fanbase in the SEC weeping because baseball is back at The Box. Why? Because Jay Johnson hasn’t just "built a program" in Baton Rouge—he’s created a professional-grade talent factory that happens to wear purple and gold and play in front of 12,000 lunatics who haven't slept since the 2025 National Championship parade. The 2026 LSU Baseball team isn't just the No. 1 ranked team in the country; they are a col

The LSU Tigers’ promising 12-1 start to the season hit a major speed bump this past weekend. While the 75-72 loss at Texas A&M was a tough pill to swallow, the real story for Tigers fans is the health of star point guard Dedan Thomas Jr.  Here is everything we know about the injury and how it reshapes the outlook for Matt McMahon's squad. The Injury: Dedan Thomas Jr. Thomas, who leads the SEC in assists (7.1 APG) and LSU in scoring (16.2 PPG), was a late scratch for the SEC o

It is January 5th, we’re all nursing New Year's hangovers, and Lane Kiffin is already out here trying to break the internet. The "Portal King" has officially set his sights on former Arizona State gunslinger (and Big 12 Freshman of the Year) Sam Leavitt. Leavitt is currently in Baton Rouge, and if Kiffin gets his way, this kid is the keys to the Ferrari. Here is the breakdown of why LSU fans should be hyped—and what’s keeping us up at night. The Good: Why He’s "That Guy" Leav

Hand up. I let myself get excited. That’s on me. LSU rolled into 2026 looking like an absolute wagon . We are sitting pretty at 12–1, stacking Ws, vibes are at an all-time high, and I’m already looking up flight prices for the Final Four. Then the calendar flipped to January and the Basketball Gods looked down at Baton Rouge and said, “Oh, you guys are having fun? That’s cute. Watch this.” Welcome to SEC play, where happiness goes to die and every Tuesday night is a knife fig

LSU basketball just wrapped up a two-game East Coast/Midwest business trip that basically told us everything we needed to know about this team right now. One gritty overtime win, one “welp, throw the tape in the trash” loss, and a whole lot of clarity about where the Tigers stand heading into the middle of December. They went 1–1… but it felt like two completely different teams showed up. The High: LSU Survives an Overtime Rock Fight at Boston College LSU beat Boston College

Some things will never die? Some may say. They would be correct. A perfect example as some might remember that’s risen to the surface, is Coach Nick Saban’s departure from LSU after winning a national championship. With grace of the fans, I believe I can speak for most whenever I say, there were many bitter years watching him coach against LSU in that crimson red. However, He might’ve been the deciding factor helping create another thing that will forever seek to die in the m

Finally, after weeks of emotional wreckage, stress-eating, and Twitter rumors that made my brain melt, LSU officially named Lane Kiffin their next head coach on Sunday.  The last couple of weeks have been a certified, five-star, absolute rollercoaster for the coaching carousel. But honestly? It was the most electric, fun, degenerate  time I’ve had in years. Look, this isn’t The New York Times . This blog is likely trash, written straight from my brain to the keyboard without

We’re heading down to Niceville, Florida — yes, that’s a real place — for the Emerald Coast Classic this Thanksgiving weekend (Nov. 28–29). Four teams, two days, tiny arena, and usually at least one upset that ruins somebody’s preseason confidence. This year’s lineup: LSU, Georgia Tech, DePaul, and Drake. A couple power-conference teams, a Big East squad that thinks it’s better than it is, and Drake — the mid-major that always seems to be lurking in these early tournaments. �

LSU wrapped up its homestand Friday night by doing exactly what they were supposed to do: bully-ball the Omaha Mavericks straight out of the PMAC. Final score: 99–73, and honestly, it never felt that close. From the jump, LSU looked like a team that had somewhere else to be. The Tigers were flying around, getting whatever they wanted on offense, and turning the paint into their own personal playground. Omaha tried to hang around early, but once LSU started rolling downhill, i

Baton Rouge, LA – LSU hoops took care of business Tuesday night at the PMAC, dropping 107 points on Alcorn State and cruising to a 107–81 win. But let’s be honest: it wasn’t all sunshine and Tiger droppings from the jump. For the first 20 minutes, LSU looked like they’d just rolled out of bed from an afternoon nap. The defense was late on everything, the rebounding wasn’t nearly as dominant as it should’ve been, and the energy felt… off. Alcorn State hung around way longer th

Shortly after noon, I arrived at the Baton Rouge airport to see whether I could gather any firsthand information about the rumored “Lane Kiffin flight” headed into town. After about fifteen minutes of waiting, the flight that everyone had been tracking finally landed. I watched it taxi over to the MMR hangar, where a carpet had already been laid out. From there, I saw—now confirmed—Layla Kiffin, Chris Kiffin, and Chris Kiffin’s wife and two children exit the plane. I couldn’t

The LSU Tigers continued their unbeaten start to the season Thursday night, defeating the FIU Panthers 98-81 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center. LSU used a strong second-half performance and an excellent night at the free-throw line to pull away after facing early resistance. LSU led 43-38 at halftime but outscored FIU 55-43 after the break, shooting 60 percent from the field in the second half. The Tigers also converted 30 of 34 free throws (88.2%), a key factor in maintai

The LSU Tigers turned a routine Monday night matchup into a statement, cruising past the University of New Orleans 93–58 at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center to move to 2–0 on the season. It took a little while for the Tigers to fully find their rhythm, but once they did, it was lights out for the Privateers. LSU ripped off a dominant second half, outscoring UNO 49–26 and turning what was once a modest 12-point lead into a full-on blowout. 🌟 Big Men, Big Game LSU’s frontcour
