Lane Kiffin is building something SPECIAL at LSU | CFB HOT TAKES! | 5-Star PG to LSU??

Lane Kiffin has quickly injected elite momentum into LSU football, turning the program into one of the nation's most talked-about powerhouses since taking over as head coach. Operating under a heavily backed $50 million roster strategy, Kiffin has utilized a dominant transfer portal approach—comprising roughly 80% of his offensive starters—alongside high-profile staff additions like Pete Carroll's son, Nate Carroll. The strategy is already yielding results; following a dominant 38-17 road victory over Auburn, the 6-2 Tigers are hitting their stride behind quarterback Sam Leavitt and star tight end Trey’Dez Green.

At the same time, LSU Men's Basketball is in the final mix for 5-star point guard Reese Alston, who is officially announcing his commitment this Thursday at 3:00 PM CT. Head coach Will Wade has the Tigers positioned as legitimate frontrunners alongside Kentucky and Louisville.
