Jada Richard Waves Goodbye: LSU Point Guard Jumps Ship
Starting guard Jada Richard, LSU’s spark plug in the 2025–26 season with 9.5 points and 3.3 assists per game, has entered the NCAA Transfer Portal with a “do-not-contact” tag. The former No. 1 recruit in Louisiana thanked fans, teammates, and coaches in a heartfelt Instagram post before confirming she’ll seek a fresh start elsewhere. LSU swiftly moved to replace her by signing Iowa State’s standout Jada Williams, who averaged 15.3 points and 7.7 assists last season.
In a move as predictable as a midseason coaching change, Jada opted for greener pastures—because nothing says “team chemistry” like a mass exodus via the Transfer Portal. Meanwhile, LSU fans can rejoice: for every outgoing guard, there’s an incoming guard sporting a completely different tattoo and Instagram aesthetic. It’s like musical chairs but with more NIL money and fewer seats.
Brian Kelly Shoots His Shot on Nussmeier’s NFL Prospects
Former LSU head coach Brian Kelly praised ex-Tiger QB Garrett Nussmeier on CBS Sports, lauding his football IQ, off-platform accuracy, and loyalty after waiting behind Jayden Daniels. Despite injuries hampering Nussmeier’s last season, Kelly believes a healthy campaign in private workouts with NFL teams could land him as a Day 2 draft pick.
Ah, nothing like a fired coach hawking his former player for TV views—Brian’s got more hot takes than a halftime nacho cart. Apparently Nussmeier’s “incredible off-platform throwing” is the next big thing, even if his last “incredible” moment was a sprained ankle. At this rate, Kelly’s gobsmackingly optimistic—he might just recommend him for president next.
Five-Star Cornerback Takes a Field Trip to Michigan
Joshua Dobson, the No. 2 cornerback in the 2027 recruiting class, will unofficially visit Michigan after stops at LSU, Texas A&M, South Carolina, and Clemson. LSU remains confident despite the Wolverines hosting him this week. Dobson’s commitment looms large, with an official Baton Rouge visit scheduled for June amid stiff competition from several top programs.
Recruiting frenzy alert: a teenager with lofty Pez-dispenser measurements bouncing between college campuses like a confused GPS. Michigan’s got a shot, but LSU thinks it “feels great” about this—because campus visits are the new courtship ritual. Soon these kids will need ring pops and scented candles to seal the deal.
Mulkey Eyes Gators in Transfer Hunt
LSU coach Kim Mulkey has turned her attention to Florida, signing guard Laila Reynolds from the Gators after losing several players to the portal. Reynolds, who averaged 12.1 points and shot 43% from the field last season, joins Iowa State’s Jada Williams in Mulkey’s quest to reload LSU’s roster. LSU also monitors legacy forward Me’Arah O’Neal, daughter of Shaquille O’Neal, as she navigates the portal with a do-not-contact tag.
Kim Mulkey’s shopping spree in the Transfer Portal is like late-night infomercials—“But wait, there’s more!” She’s snagging Florida talent as though SEC teams are handing out free samples. And keep an eye on Shaq’s kid: nothing spices up March Madness like a family reunion in purple and gold.
