Do it for the ppl! We appreciate the crew!
You guys need to get your audio better.. I can't watch when it's going in and out.. I'm very interested but frustrating with the audio
Wish it wasn't going to go this way but Wright is as good as gone. His HS, Destrehan, is an LSU pipeline. Two of his teammates are in the '25 class. Listening to interviews with his mom, it's clear she prefers LSU.
I'm hoping they can keep him but I'm not holding my breath
Jayden Sanders has quickly become one of, if not the most important recruit in this class. With him in the fold you have an absolutely fantastic DB class; Winston, Taylor, Sanders is a great haul for Lamar Morgan's first class.
Without him…. things get really iffy. There are no other CBs in the board with his pedigree. And with last years CB haul being underwhelming (Edmonds late rise notwithstanding), the need for Sanders is even greater.
Right now there is no successor to Will Johnson. We have a Mike Sainristil successor in Winston. We have a Rod Moore successor in Ivan Taylor. Simply put, we need more CB prospects and Sanders is at the top of that (short) list.
Thanks for the extended coverage! The audio makes it difficult to listen
We better see some "BBQ" this time 😂
Another '26 BBQ visitor I hope they land is Luke Wafle. Yes, he is Owen's little brother and is a beast in his own right.
Would love to see the Wafle Bros smashing Buckeyes together.
I can't stand when kids make commitments than go back on them. It's extremely juvenile. You would want your commitments to be mature kids wanting to be men. People can give every excuse as to why or whatever but it's like listen. Don't commit lol. Commit somewhere when your 100% ready. Parents I believe fail there kids when they allow them to give their word and than back out on that. It's an extremely bad way to start a career and if I'm an NFL scout I'm actually taking that into consideration. Is this player easily manipulated or a follower instead of a leader. I'm wanting guys who when they say they are going to do something they do it. Just my opinion. Nobody is going to change it so no need trying
We gotta get Steve a new microphone lol
So he’s committing to LSU. Got it.
When will you be doing the interviews with the recruits at the BBQ? Will it be on YouTube?
I hope the food is a lot better than last season. That photo was embarrassing
Steve’s audio on point as usual lol
You guys really need to hire a producer or some type of sound engineer. Lorenz sounds awful every time he's on. The most important thing on any YouTube stream is the audio. You can broadcast with cheap cameras in low quality but if people can't hear what you're saying then you'll lose viewers. Is 247/ TMI that hard up that it can't furnish its on-air people with the proper equipment?
Goodness Steve needs a microphone severely. Love listening to you three but man oh man his audio is painful
Don't worry if wright flips, we will get him back in transfer portal when he realizes kelly can't coach and LSU is never gonna be as good as Michigan is. Amorion Walker figured that out at Ole Miss another SEC school. Was there one semester, then transfered back. The grass is not always greener at other schools. Michigan's got supperior coaching and multiple ties to NFL teams and coaches. Michigan just had 13 players drafted and it's only gonna get more drafted as they continue to string together championships. Those who wear the WINGED HELMET will be champions, on and off the field! GOBLUE!!😊
Look…if we can get Myles and Marsh, then losing Wright won't hurt us at all. But if we only add Marsh, and lose out on Myles and Wright, then we'll have to add another late riser at WR just ike at CB in order to maintain the numbers we'll need to have quality depth at those two positions. I'm not crazy about playing true freshman at either WR or CB especially at Michigan because they're required to be more physical than at most other schools. That extra physicality that Michigan requires usually takes a year or two if development.
War eagle 🦅 buf Michigan my 2nd favorite Andrew baboaloa i really want
