And if YOU paid any attention at all, I've said what you say about blanket treatment vs how you defend every action they take and paint every move they make with the glowiest of glows tell 2 different stories.

So again.......can you understand how, to an outside observer, somebody who tries as hard as you're trying to make it seem like poor wittle ol LSU are the real victims here....whether you want to say you are against the NFL players coming back to school or not.....your actions are pretty much the same as somebody who wants to win at all costs, right?

i never once said LSU was squeaky clean. Never said they should/shouldn’t be doing what they’re doing.

No, but you've said they're just sitting there innocently waiting for a ruling and just gosh darn it trying to build the best dad gum team they can. After all.....that's the only thing sweet sweet Lane Kiffin can be asked to do, right?

LSU are the aggressors here. LSU is putting up the statue of Liberty outside campus asking for your tired, former NFL, eligibility challenged masses yearning to play football again. In spite of the SEC saying don't do that.

We now know why Lane Kiffin is so determined to add former NFL players to LSU’s roster and it’s not the reason we were led to believe​

LSU head coach Lane Kiffin has created plenty of headlines over the last few weeks in Baton Rouge.

Screenshot-2026-08-17-at-1.52.29-PM-1280x736.png


Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers have made headlines over the last week for their attempts to add former NFL players to the roster.

The assumption from many has been that Kiffin felt LSU needed more talent to compete for a College Football Playoff spot this season.

That assumption is wrong.

This isn’t about LSU’s roster being insufficient. Kiffin went into the summer believing his $50 million roster was good enough to compete. And sure, he probably thinks these former NFL players can make LSU even better, but this isn’t a situation where he believes the Tigers have to have former NFL talent in order to truly contend. This is about something much simpler: Kiffin trying to prove he can do something the SEC is telling him he can’t.

Lane Kiffin has always been driven by defiance​

People close to Kiffin have pointed out that he is driven by this kind of thing. When someone tells him he can’t do it, it makes him want to do it even more, regardless of whether it’s worth it.

“Those who know Kiffin best swear he wouldn’t want it any other way,” wrote On3’s Chris Low this week. “The more he’s told he can’t do something, the more hell-bent he is on doing it, even when the risk doesn’t seem to be worth the reward.”

“He’s one of the best coaches in the game, and for some reason, that’s not good enough for him. He lets things drive him sometimes that shouldn’t drive him,” added somebody who’s known Kiffin for decades to Low.

It’s not just those around Kiffin saying this. Kiffin himself told reporters earlier this year, while discussing his trip to Knoxville to woo quarterback Sam Leavitt to LSU instead of Tennessee, that he doesn’t do well with being told no.

“I don’t know. I just know how I do things,” said Kiffin. “There’s a good and bad to it. I’m extremely competitive, and I don’t really do well with no — that just makes me more competitive when someone says no. So sometimes that happens in recruiting, they say no. But I think that’s my job. That’s my job to LSU.”

Kiffin said he met with the players' leadership committee and presented the situation to those players before asking them what they wanted to do about the possibility of adding Wright along with defensive tackle Zxavian Harris and former LSU defensive end Jack Pyburn, who were also released by NFL teams.

Kansas City Chiefs may have ruined Jack Pyburn's plan to make big money at LSU by giving him a job in the NFL

Jack Pyburn was set to earn more at LSU than his NFL rookie salary, but the Kansas City Chiefs claimed the linebacker off waivers from Tampa Bay.

Kansas City Chiefs may have ruined Jack Pyburn's plan to make big money at LSU by giving him a job in the NFL​

The linebacker was expected to earn roughly $1M in college NIL money if he returned to LSU​

Folks who track such things last week were estimating that Jack Pyburn could make around $1 million in 2026 if he was cut by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and allowed to return to college at LSU. Except, well, the Kansas City Chiefs had other plans.

The Chiefs on Monday afternoon claimed the linebacker off waivers from the Bucs, per the NFL waiver wire.

That means Pyburn's NFL career continues as a member of the Chiefs' 53-man roster.

It also means Pyburn is seemingly headed for a pay cut by being in the NFL rather than back in college.

Yes, crazy world.

Pyburn's rookie salary is scheduled to be $885,000. And that is less than the $1 million he was expected to make in college.

Pyburn, by the way, reportedly informed LSU that he is withdrawing his name from the ongoing eligibility lawsuit and will remain in the NFL – not that the Chiefs gave him a choice, really.

Rutgers Held the World's Saddest Fireworks Show After Losing at Home to UMass​

This is insanity. You just got embarrassed on your home field by a Group of Five team that didn't win a single game last season and you're going ahead with the postgame fireworks?

Rutgers needed somebody from the econ department in the press box to explain to whoever was in charge of the pyro what a sunk cost is. You've already paid for the fireworks whether they get shot off or not. The only difference is now you've further humiliated yourselves.

What an embarrassment of an athletic department. Even Vanderbilt has found a modicum of success in the NIL/transfer portal era, but Rutgers is still just as Rutgers-y as it's ever been. Disband the football program and put that money to good use educating young minds.

Barstool, eh. Somebody’s salty about losing his “strongest play of the year.”
