Last month, my wife @ALLYCE_TRAPP was diagnosed with angiosarcoma, a rare form of cancer. Thankfully, we have an incredible amount of support. She starts treatment soon, so I won’t be on here regularly for a while. Please keep her in your thoughts.

Holly remained indefinitely suspended at LSU as he awaited trial, which was supposed to start July 7 but had to be postponed because the A/C went out at the courthouse in Union Parish.

LSU already lost 60% of its 2023 recruiting class. Turns out, it's not alone. Arkansas has three players left. Nine SEC teams lost at least half of their HS signees. Looked at what happened to the class at LSU and across the SEC:.

LSU was awful on defense in 2023 and notably better in 2024. But the Tigers must be better still in 2025 against dual-threat quarterbacks who fill their slate.

On Kalen DeBoer replacing Nick Saban, Ty Simpson told me at the MPA: "Not many people — a lot of people trusted him, but they didn’t trust him fully. I think this year, everybody trusts him." Alabama enters his Year 2:.

Brian Kelly told @theadvocatebr this week that, at the time of the accident, he didn't think Colin Hurley would make it back for the fall. "We were worried about cognitive issues with him. But he has been amazing.". He's part of LSU's 2026 QB decision:.
