Aside from the upcoming Texas Bowl against Baylor on Dec. 31, the season is over for LSU football. All eyes now turn to the offseason and how the Tigers can improve a roster that went 8-4 this year.
In last year’s transfer portal, LSU engaged in bidding wars for top players and largely didn’t come out on top. Head coach Brian Kelly has said that this time, the Tigers will be aggressive and spare no expense.
At the same time, after a disappointing season, there are sure to be some players on the way out of the program.
The winter transfer portal window opens on Dec. 9 and closes on Dec. 24.
