Denver's first suspension was literally for speeding. Let's stop acting like we've never met an 18yo with a fast car. As far as the pot thing goes I guess y'all supported kicking the honey badger off the team a decade ago too.
Also I think it's funny to bash on Matthews when the only reason he's not here is bc we bought Perkins so the ags had a bunch more money to throw around and we couldn't get our shit together quick enough. That kid couldn't afford not to take that and believe me when I say if there's financially a way to get him home that makes sense he wouldn't blink.
I think Orgeron got a bit of a raw deal from fans at LSU. He assembled arguably the greatest team and orchestrated the greatest season of all time....followed by an unprecedented two year stretch of Covid pandemic seasons. How many players didn't play because of that? How many would have stayed with the program if Covid had not happened? Would everything have turned out differently? We will never know. I'm not saying Orgeron was a great X's and O's coach, he wasn't, what he was, was a coach that inspired his players and knew how to gather talent around him. That said, I think Kelly is on his way to becoming one of the great coaches that LSU will treasure going forward.
If covid didnt happen it would still be bad. The man got his success and didnt know how to handle it. Cared more about himself and being seen than establishing a consistent, winning football team. It's almost as if he wanted to prove people wrong and once he did (and made his money), he was done
@@tigergirlkita To remove a Louisiana son from LSU for a yankee tells me that there is more to the story than win loss. It started with his decision not to support his black players in their vocal attempt to support the anti-police, Black Lives Matter movements. He did not respond to female student's complaints about his players behavior with them. There was divorce, a younger women in Ed's life. There was a lot more going on, and the program didn't seem to have structure and a clear vision.
Some A&M players really wanted to come but gave in for the money. I don’t want to tell a poor 18- or 19-yo to go pound sand because he was tempted into A&M.
Jacoby Mathews must been offered a great NIL deal, but he still left for A&M on account of more 💰! No need for this type of player! Let him stay i Texas and try to console Jimbo!
@@ivansalazar5448 that's easy for you to say but you don't know about their lives and situations. If their family was struggling and knew that with the money they received they could pay off a debt or move their family out of a bad situation you would take it. He chose money for the opportunity to help his family. He made a sacrifice that im sure was enticing to his family and the choice was made by them. It sucks that a young man couldn't choose for himself but he did what he thought was in the best interest of his family because i guarantee it was a family oriented deal.
Yeah Les Miles had two 8-win seasons in 12 years, and those were his worst. That’s a good year at A&M, and I don’t think they get there this year. Les never lost to a G5 team. Can’t even recall losing to a team who finished with a losing record apart from 2005. I hate that he ran players into the ground and couldn’t improvise his offense, but people forget how much he did well.
@@justinjay9501 so we aren’t going to acknowledge the winning record against Saban before that? Not the 14-game who Ning streak before that either? I’m just saying there was good with the bad. He wasn’t some .500 coach who went between 4-8 and 8-4.
Yes, but by the end his outdated philosophy had created a 9-3/10-2 ceiling. He no longer was striving for championships and foolishly thought 8-4 was enough to keep the job forever. Fortunately he was wrong!
You don’t think LSU players smoke weed? More kids smoke weed than don’t these days. But, you got a point, don’t be dumb enough to do it in the locker room.
It’s easy for us to see the talent at A&M and want a few guys but the goal of Kelly is program building with freshmen and veteran leaders. He really is selective with a transfer and it shows with this year’s transfers…
Yes sir! That’s what a great college head coach should be doing! I was a little dissatisfying at first thinking he is focusing too much on academics and character when some players are clearly destined for nfl and don’t need the degree ever! But after seeing what he has built with kayshon and the relationship he has with other players on this team, I stand corrected! Academics is just as important when your a student athlete as it just shows responsibility and no one is guaranteed anything and having that backup degree is so beneficial especially if they get it in something meaningful to life like business or marketing and not arts and black history lol. I was always the guy that was willing to give pass to any good or great player that we needed on the field when it came to failing a class or passing with help others don’t get but it seems that’s part of character building always impacts your game performance and preparation and respect for your other teammates that are putting the same amount of work in as you are. Those kids may not understand why the degree is also so important at that moment but usually by the time they are 30 or thee tkme when they have career end short or retire that realize it and see more than grateful if the reason that they have it is due to a great coach like BK emphasis on that part of student athlete responsibility! I love my new Lsu tigers HC in BK! “That’s my coach!(T.O. Crying voice!)”
I love the hypocrites in these comments acting like they wouldn't take a job if it offered them more money. aTm was out here offering these kids more money than some of their families make in years. They would be stupid to pass it up. And if after being there for a year they don't feel they're being developed and are hurting their draft stock being there and want to come home, I don't understand why anyone has a problem with that.
BK will probably sit them down and qualify them... as in letting them know there will be no room for lack of integrity and adherence to team rules! LOVE BK. Character is what matters most !
The reason perkins came here was because of the nil deal was dependent upon staying 3 years. You get so much the first year then the second then the third. He thought he was getting 500k but he found out that was only if he was there for 3 years. So you must be mistaken about rules on that
I absolutely ❤LSU and always have but let’s be honest. If I would have been offered a significant amount of money as a high school senior to go somewhere else it would have been VERY hard to turn it down. I grew up in a middle income family in the 80’s and money was tight. I actually joined the army so my education was paid for. A lot of these kids are poor. Some very poor. How can you blame them? Seriously..I do not. And neither should you. If you do then you never had to watch your parents not fix the AC in the family vehicle so you could have a decent prom. Much less skip meals and doctor’s appointments for their child.
This is getting so overblown it’s ridiculous. We’re two weeks out from our aTm game and everyone’s acting like they’re more likely to forfeit than win. Can we chill on this for a few weeks?
Coach Kelly is running a tight ship. No nonsense on and off the field. That is how you build a program. Discipline and zero tolerance. No problem players.
A few guys I wouldn’t mind bringing are Jardin Gilbert and Jacoby Mathews both safeties from Louisiana. Le’Veon Moss since we’ll likely lose John Emery and possibly Noah Cain and/or Josh Williams since they’re both draft eligible also. Only way I’m fine with Denver Harris is if Bk believes he can clean up his act, if not no need for the distraction. But dude is super talented and LSU was his dream school, just comes down to if the staff believes he can contribute instead of cause locker room problems. And of course watch for any of those DLinemen if they leave.
This guy Denver, is exactly the type of player LSU needs NOT to recruit or, have anywhere near our campus... Denver would would have been a perfect fit for the LSU program, during the days of Myles and Orgeron!
@@ivansalazar5448 wasn’t a fistful it was a life changing amount for him. A kid like him wouldn’t choose another school over his dream school if it wasn’t life changing. And from what it sounds like it was all his parents choice and not his.
Same thing my brother when Scott made it known he would pay what ever it takes that told A&M they had no choice but to get crazy to keep him its same thing buddy
I don't think the reason why A&M had a top tier class last year is because of the money so much. I think the reason why they did so well in recruitment last year is because LSU was in shambles. Coach O put us in a bad way last year. Coach Kelly and winning changes things. The players that he mentioned are from Louisiana and they might not get the money they get at A&M but winning Championships still matter. The only player I don't want back at LSU is QB Max Johnson. He's the reason for our slump if you ask me. Had he stayed we'd have a Top 2 or 3 QB in the SEC, a third year QB, and one who has chemistry with Boutte and Nabers. He can make the throws in this offense and he'd probably be a Heisman candidate. He messed up by transferring to A&M and it's costing him.
@@louisianabiggdogg1154 listen I don't care who paid whom. We pay too, bama pays too, Texas pays too, usc pays too.... all of em pays so I don't care about that. I just don't like the fact that Max jumped ship when we got a better coach. Coach Kelly brings more stability and discipline to our program than les and Coach O both. He's a better coach period and for Max to behave the way he did shows what he's about.
They won't fire Jimbo but will probably require him to bring in a new OC who has control of the offense, and that OC will be a big hire and lots of $$$.
@@keith1617 I’m a huge LSU fan. Ed O did that to himself because of lack of discipline and inability to control his impulses. That’s not even including the fact that he was not a program building and sustaining coach.
I agree with your premise but I respectfully disagree in your analysis. The booster money for UT and A&M is way more than double the amount available in Louisiana, or Alabama. A&M can definitely afford to spend BOOSTER money to buy out Jimbo. I know it's a hurdle for you, mentally, and me too, but I am certain they CAN. And I asked myself "why would they?" Texas pride, Texas swagger, and one unemployed college football coach: Urban Meyer. I am an LSU double-graduate and I bleed purple and gold. I am not hoping or wishing for this. But it seems inevitable.
Texas money is overrated, both schools..both have large endowments..others have billionaire supporters just like they do.. Tennessee per capita has bigger deeper pockets than either
@@mitchelll3879 I believe you, but does that change my analysis? Tennessee is pretty happy with their coach. A&M seems like a dumpster fire. My argument rests on the fact that they can spend the money for the buyout, not that Tennessee could not also do that.
Your personal take on TEXAS A&M's racially slurred and profane football team stadium entrance song created by a racist musical "artist"? Do Jewish lives not matter...again? -Genesis 12:3
Please encourage our admin to do the right, proper, swift and permanent thing.
@@joeltinney5000 This one of the memos that perhaps hastened the eradication of both Mr. Wests sweet little gem and Gaminos mess: The TH-cam profanity algorithm will not permit the posting of the lyrics. Many websites such as TexAgs and 247 also will not permit the posting of the lyrics. Sadly, even discussion of the song is taboo. Trust me. Why would that be? The song "Power" (@Texas A&M Univ.) , created by a known racist, is played as the football team entrance piece just prior to kick-off for the AGGIES at Kyle Field. Some are claiming.."yeah, it's racially slurred and profane, but we don't sing the lyrics"- "It's just an instrumental". Others, "We play the clean version it's just a brief hype piece". If not for those horrendous lyrics, this song never would have existed. "You can't even hear the racially slurred and profane lyrics.." Should A&M align itself with an artist/song that so freely promotes the use of racial slurs and profanity? A song producer that recently had some very racist remarks directed towards the Jewish community. It's saddening and confusing the lengths of rationalization some people will take to try and justify the existence of something that reflects so poorly on TX A&M. Heck, us as a civilized society.. What hinders us from taking the logical course of action? One of the chief obstacles to progressive change here is the fact that so few Aggies are even aware of the lyrics. That will change. But, what if the song contained lyrics promoting cop killing? Or encouraged the resumption of slavery? Or the abuse of children? Or disparaging remarks/slurs directed towards the LGBT or the Jewish community? Would an "instrumental version" remain acceptable and appropriate knowing full well what those lyrics are? Are there any lines that can't be crossed today? Based on the former OU coach who recently resigned and the backlash created by the spectator at a BYU volleyball game, the data suggests there are. Musician Morgan Wallen was barred from the ACM award function just last year for using a racial slur. Recognize, trust and believe the data. Some things are just not acceptable. Others have suggested it's OK for a person of color to use these shameful and hurtful slurs and others can't...some might argue this is racist. We should think long and hard about that one. Does it really benefit anybody? That's a confusing and dangerous road to take. It's not OK. Learning to respect yourself might make respecting others an easier choice. Perhaps not? Regardless, the extreme profanity with MF-bombs, references to sexual acts and even sexual organs in the song's lyrics should make the decision an easy one. Yeah, it's chocked full of beneficial goodness. The selection of such a crude song is very perplexing. At best. It's tradition now, but does that make it any less toxic and inappropriate? Google the lyrics...you'll be shocked. A state supported institution no less...tax supported. One that prides itself on producing leaders.. What is the priority here? The end-game? Perhaps there wasn't an over-riding scheme/intent behind the decision maker's selection. If there was, the selection of this song in particular is somewhat distressing and clearly runs counter to our school's Statement from The Texas A&M University System Council on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion. Regardless of its popularity, we ought to be better than this. Our core values.....are some departments exempt perhaps? The AGGIE CODE of HONOR: "Is an effort to unify the aims of all Texas A&M men and women toward a high code of ethics and personal dignity ". Do we have a somewhat disturbing disconnect here? A classic case of lack of institutional control perhaps? We should be setting the standard, not burying our heads in the sand and looking the other way. Need to walk the talk IMO. A&M has a golden opportunity here at becoming part of the answer, not the problem.
I bet HP is liking his choice for sure today
He must have seen the writing on the way!
He must have had an epiphany!

Some are claiming.."yeah, it's racially slurred and profane, but we don't sing the lyrics"- "It's just an instrumental". Others, "We play the clean version it's just a brief hype piece". If not for those horrendous lyrics, this song never would have existed. "You can't even hear the racially slurred and profane lyrics.." Should A&M align itself with an artist/song that so freely promotes the use of racial slurs and profanity? A song producer that recently had some very racist remarks directed towards the Jewish community. It's saddening and confusing the lengths of rationalization some people will take to try and justify the existence of something that reflects so poorly on TX A&M. Heck, us as a civilized society.. What hinders us from taking the logical course of action? One of the chief obstacles to progressive change here is the fact that so few Aggies are even aware of the lyrics. That will change.
But, what if the song contained lyrics promoting cop killing? Or encouraged the resumption of slavery? Or the abuse of children? Or disparaging remarks/slurs directed towards the LGBT or the Jewish community? Would an "instrumental version" remain acceptable and appropriate knowing full well what those lyrics are? Are there any lines that can't be crossed today? Based on the former OU coach who recently resigned and the backlash created by the spectator at a BYU volleyball game, the data suggests there are. Musician Morgan Wallen was barred from the ACM award function just last year for using a racial slur. Recognize, trust and believe the data. Some things are just not acceptable. Others have suggested it's OK for a person of color to use these shameful and hurtful slurs and others can't...some might argue this is racist. We should think long and hard about that one. Does it really benefit anybody? That's a confusing and dangerous road to take. It's not OK. Learning to respect yourself might make respecting others an easier choice. Perhaps not? Regardless, the extreme profanity with MF-bombs, references to sexual acts and even sexual organs in the song's lyrics should make the decision an easy one. Yeah, it's chocked full of beneficial goodness. The selection of such a crude song is very perplexing. At best. It's tradition now, but does that make it any less toxic and inappropriate? Google the lyrics...you'll be shocked. A state supported institution no less...tax supported. One that prides itself on producing leaders.. What is the priority here? The end-game? Perhaps there wasn't an over-riding scheme/intent behind the decision maker's selection. If there was, the selection of this song in particular is somewhat distressing and clearly runs counter to our school's
Statement from The Texas A&M University System Council on Diversity, Equity and Inclusion.
Regardless of its popularity, we ought to be better than this. Our core values.....are some departments exempt perhaps? The AGGIE CODE of HONOR: "Is an effort to unify the aims of all Texas A&M men and women toward a high code of ethics and personal dignity ". Do we have a somewhat disturbing disconnect here? A classic case of lack of institutional control perhaps? We should be setting the standard, not burying our heads in the sand and looking the other way. Need to walk the talk IMO.
A&M has a golden opportunity here at becoming part of the answer, not the problem.
Do we covet A&M players so bad we do videos about it and then post them on TH-cam? Obviously, some of us do.
I see you’re not talking shit about Jayden Daniels anymore. Still riding the Nuss bus?🤣
How the turn tables ???
