What is the plan if we don't land Barrow or Williams?

Seems like we're still very much in play for both but since it's been quiet I was curious what's the plan if we don't get either. I know some of our other targets have already signed elsewhere. I would assume we're taking 2 guys regardless of where they end up being from.

What are the other viable options still out there?

It’s a legit question. I’m kind of curious myself.

LSU will unfold a new defense called the 2 - 4 - 6 formation designed around nothing but our speed.

From what I've heard Barrow from Michigan State is their top option so if we want to have a strong d line we better pay him. LSU has a great program that needs at least one very strong player. Hopefully two, if we want a run at the title.

This is a valid question and concern. BK even acknowledge. Not sure why anyone would downvote. We have to address. The market, not the coach, determines what is a fair price. Welcome to capitalism.

Pub, so what do you think the plan is? BK will slip the head linesman a 50 spot to ignore the extra player on the field? Or maybe have a guy hang on the sidelines who slips onto the field after the ball is hiked? Yeah that could work.

I've said it before and I'll say it now....lsu landing barrow and pairing him with guillory could be a difference maker for this defense and the season...they def should go all out and pay him

Oilers did something like that with the 3-4 under Phillips as did Jimmy Johnson at Okla St. Brought that concept over to Miami as the “Miami 3-4”.

Like I told y'all a while back, we bout to roll out that 3-3-7.

We got spotted an extra LB and DB for the lack of DL.

People are going to melt either way. Even if we land both of these guys, one bad game and people will bitch about how those spots were wasted on them.

I'd honestly be surprised if LSU wins 10 games this year with their schedule, and offense that will be worse, and a defense that may not see a ton of improvement from last year.

I didn't think the secondary could get any worse than last year but after watching spring game I'm terrified with Sage/Burns as your last line of defense. Currently DL is much worse than last year which is saying something. Could the defense end up worse than last year? Tons of inexperience at CB, Sage/Burns at S, and a DL that's significantly lacking depth on a much harder schedule.

Defense will need an extra player and still get gashed
