LSU Tigers (official thread)

Mets troll Jayden Daniels over LSU NIL dispute

Jayden Daniels is getting trolled ... by the New York Mets, of all teams.

The Washington Commanders quarterback has been embroiled in an unusual dispute with his alma mater, LSU. Daniels' spokesperson told ESPN that the quarterback took issue with the Tigers allowing cornerback DJ Pickett to wear the No. 5 jersey that Daniels donned during his Heisman-winning season in 2023. Daniels' attorney has informed LSU that it can no longer use his name, image and likeness, according to an Aug. 5 letter sent to Tigers athletic director Verge Ausberry, a copy of which was obtained by ESPN on Wednesday.

The dispute has become fodder for internet trolling. StubHub announced it would "no longer offer tickets in groups of 5." NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series team TRICON Garage said it would not be running No. 5 at a race Friday. The account for Minor League Baseball made a joke about a postponed game resuming at 5:05 p.m. in the fifth inning. But perhaps the most notable troll came Friday night after the Mets' 4-1 win over the Washington Nationals.

After the win, which came against the Commanders' neighbor in MLB, the Mets posted a graphic saying they "Stopped at 4 out of respect for Jayden Daniels."

As much as I endorse their troll here, the Mets are the last organization that should be deriding anyone right now :lol:

ttun recruiting (all classes)

So ttun hires an old school HC Who isn’t known for elite recruiting, but more so multi year development. That would work at Utah where few players were poached into the Portal, but now he’s in the B1G at ttun with a fanbase expecting to keep up in recruiting with OSU, Oregon, USC and now the defending champion Hoosiers(still feels weird writing that). 2 of the top 20 kids in MI have committed to them in 2027, and that’s not going to cut it :scum:

2028 MI QB Donald Tabron II (Texas A&M Verbal)

Ironic…considering UoM just suspended letter grades for incoming freshmen and went to a pass/fail standard because college is hard or anxiety or some bs combo of the two. Seems like lowering standards and coddling to me, but I didn’t get a degree from that school so I must be wrong and misinformed.
:lol:

but but but it's for the childrens!!! The poor dears are STRESSED?!?! No one has ever been stressed before? My God we gotta change EVERYTHING because they are a little put out by letter grades!! ZOMG agony!!

Pathetic.

Yup :lol:

Academic Progress Rate (APR)

Reggie 0.0 Germany who then went on to earn a 3.5 the rest of his time at Ohio State.

For those that don't remember Reggie:

Google AI: Former Ohio State wide receiver Reggie Germany famously posted a 0.0 GPA during the 2000fall quarter, causing him to miss the Outback Bowl. He later admitted he stopped attending classes to focus entirely on the NFL draft out of youthful immaturity, though he eventually returned and graduated with a sociology degree in 2015.

Background and Impact
    • The Incident: At the end of the 2000 regular season, Germany was declared academically ineligible for the upcoming bowl game against South Carolina after earning a 0.0 term GPA.
    • The Aftermath: Germany acknowledged that he completely neglected his coursework because he viewed college merely as a pit stop for a professional football career.
    • Professional Career: Despite the rough finish to his college academic term, he was drafted in the 7th round of the 2001 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills, playing briefly in the league.
    • Later Life: Germany returned to The Ohio State University through a degree-completion program to earn his bachelor's degree in 2015. He later transitioned into business as a franchise owner of Crumbl Cookie locations and local athletic trainer.
Former OSU player finding success with cookie company

“And welcome to Crumbl!” Reggie Germany shouts as customers walk into his Crumbl Cookies location. He suits up to make sure his customers are taken care of.

Germany is the franchise owner of the Crumbl in Centerville, the first one to open in the greater Dayton area. And now, he’s opening even more locations across the state.

RB Lamar "Bo" Jackson (All B1G)

Login to view embedded media
When asked about the running backs on Saturday, Day said Jackson has “had a very good start to camp” and has “certainly stood out.”

"The first thing is his reads and the way he's hitting the hole has really shown up," Day said. "I think he's doing a much better job at the second level. And we've talked about it before, either running over them or you’re running around and making them miss, and you're seeing that. It's showing up on film. It did not show up on film last year. We all know it.

"It’s just practice, so it doesn't matter until he puts it in the game, but if he continues to keep building and practicing and stacking these practices the way he's doing it, it's going to show up in the game. And that's going to be a big part of who we are this year. We felt like there was a lot of good there last year, but there was also a lot of football that we left on the field, and so (making defenders miss is) a big point of emphasis that so far, he's been responding to."

DT James Smith (Official Thread)

Being quiet doesn't mean they aren't crazy. Plenty of silent assassins on the DL. It's the quiet ones you gotta watch out for. Joey Bosa sounds like a permastoned surfer and he's a monster
That's fair. There's exceptions. But if I am drawing up a defensive lineman I want him to be someone like Warren Sapp. This guy is a problem to deal with for their team and for our team. Offensive linemen, I want them to be guys who could also teach kindergarten
