As the transfer portal is set to open up on Friday, the Lane Kiffin and LSU landed a huge win when star linebacker Whit Weeks announced that he is returning to Baton Rouge for his senior season.
"College Football is too hard to leave, and there is no better place in the country to be right now than Baton Rouge, Louisiana. All I want to do is ball in the purple and gold. See you in September,” Weeks said in an Instagram post on Thursday afternoon.
After battling injury for most of the 2025 season, Weeks will look to lead another strong season for LSU's defense under the guidance of defensive coordinator Blake Baker in 2026.
