Locked On LSU - Daily Podcast On LSU Tigers Football & Basketball

The spring transfer portal window opened on April 16th and now players across the country have until the end of the month to decide if they want to stay or leave from their current team before the 2024 season kicks off. As for LSU, head coach Brian Kelly said Saturday after the Tigers' spring game that they will focus on defensive tackles in the portal, a dire need after former LSU DTs Mekhi Wingo and Maason Smith declared for the NFL Draft. So who is out there for Kelly and company to get?

On today's edition of Locked On LSU we break down the two DTs to which LSU has extended offers. However, in order for LSU to add DTs, current scholarship players must enter the transfer portal to accommodate the 85 full scholarship rule. So which current Tigers are on their way out and why?

LSU TIGERS SPRING GAME RECAP | Has Collins or Swann emerged as the leader in the backup QB battle?

The LSU Tigers hit the field at Tiger Stadium Saturday afternoon for the third spring game of the Brian Kelly era. While spring games are much less of an actual game and much more of a glorified practice, it is still a good opportunity to see the progress of position battles and with which teams certain individuals play. There are several battles shaking out in preseason, whether the secondary or the wide receiver room. Another battle that has ensued during spring practice and will continue to shake out throughout the rest of the summer is the backup quarterback – who will be QB2 behind Garrett Nussmeier? Both Vanderbilt transfer AJ Swann and second-year Rickie Collins got rotations with the second team offense, first Swann then Collins. But did either emerge as a favorite?

Plus, LSU baseball has now lost every single series in SEC play thus far after getting swept on the road at Tennessee. What is plaguing the defending national champions and how much hope, if at all, is there for Jay Johnson's squad to turn things around and qualify for the postseason?

LSU Tigers need to upgrade the defense. Is transfer portal help on the way?

On today's edition of Locked on LSU we breakdown defensive tackles that the Tigers have and should pursue in the transfer portal to add to the massive hole on the interior defensive line. Who would be a slam dunk and who might have some red flags? To what extent should or will Brian Kelly and the rest of the recruiting staff need to accept red flags because of how barren LSU is at the DT position?

Plus, we get into your mailbag questions and address the transfer portal and how the spring window looks slightly different and the fall and what that means for the Tigers, defensive upgrades this offseason, and the underachieving LSU baseball team. Jay Johnson's squad hits the road taking on the Missouri Tigers starting Friday evening but is all hope already lost for the defending national champions?
