Ha-Vy Nguyen Positionless Offense is Here It’s often stated that football is a cyclical game. Ways of thinking rise, fall, rise again, and fall again. Despite this unavoidable truth, ideas change as they resurface. Integrating lessons learned from previous cycles, tactics that return do so in modified form. Some evolutionary outcomes cannot be fully rewound, even as they are countered. As we discussed last year, offenses in the sport have encountered a problem. Defenses have adjusted to offenses that can spread them out. Previously, teams never invested enough, whether it be through the draft ..read more

If the predictions come true it looks like 2024 will be a good but maybe not great year for LSU. The Tigers were picked to finish 5th in the new-look SEC behind Georgia, Texas, Alabama, and Ole Miss, with the Dawgs and Longhorns predicted to face off in Atlanta for the SEC Championship Game.

Photo by Jay Biggerstaff/Getty Images Tanks for the memories With the MLB Draft beginning Sunday night, it is just about time to close the book on Tommy White’s LSU career. Despite only being a Tiger for two of his three collegiate seasons, he is unquestionably an LSU legend. He did many things well on the diamond, but we will remember him for his special ability to do one thing in particular: Hit the baseball really freaking far. He already earned the Tommy Tanks nickname before the transfer portal dropped him into Baton Rouge, so naturally the expectations were gargantuan. Two 24-homer seaso ..read more
