LSU has a lot of work to do in the wake of Brian Kelly's firing. The school needs to find a new head coach, fill out a coaching staff, and hit the recruiting trail hard in an effort to not only bring in new talent, but hang on to players that are already committed. A long road is ahead for Scott Woodward and company, who can't afford to whiff on finding Kelly's replacement.
Even in the new era of NIL and the transfer portal, recruiting top talent from the high school ranks plays a massive role in college football roster construction.
