On this episode of The Hannycast, Charles Hanagriff and former LSU tight end Richard Dickson deliver a full film-study breakdown of LSU football’s rebuilt roster heading into the upcoming season.

With Lane Kiffin assembling one of the deepest and most talent-rich rosters LSU has seen in years, the guys analyze how the transfer portal class, signing class, and key returners fit together — position by position — and why roster rebuilds no longer take three to four years in modern college football.

From impact additions like Princewill Umanmielen and Jordan Seaton, to a crowded quarterback room, revamped offensive line, explosive wide receiver group, and a loaded defense with elite depth up front, this episode dives deep into what LSU has, what it needs, and how quickly it can come together.

They also discuss:

- Why expectations are immediately high in the portal era

- How LSU’s offensive and defensive lines stack up nationally

- Breakout candidates across the roster

- Why oddsmakers already believe LSU will be elite

- What spring practice will reveal about this team’s ceiling

Plus, a look ahead to LSU’s season opener odds and a transition toward baseball coverage as the defending national champions gear up for another run.

Charles Hanagriff and former LSU tight end Richard Dickson dive into LSU’s emotional one-point victory over Arkansas — Frank Wilson’s first win as interim head coach — and break down exactly how the Tigers clawed back after a rough start.

This week’s film study covers:

🔥 Harold Perkins’ best stretch of the season

Perkins is back in “game-wrecker mode,” delivering multiple impact plays, including a key interception inside the red zone.

🔥 Michael Van Buren’s first Tiger Stadium start

After early nerves, the freshman settled in and delivered several big-time throws, smart reads, and a game-sealing 35-yard run.

🔥 O-line youth movement

Aubrey Williams, Kern, and Weston Davis all showed promising flashes as LSU evaluates next year’s starters.

🔥 Defensive resilience

The Tigers stuffed a 4th-and-goal QB sneak, forced two empty Arkansas trips inside the 10, and kept LSU alive despite early special-teams mistakes.

🔥 Smart situational football

Harlan Berry’s late slide — giving up a TD to clinch the win — drew praise for maturity way beyond his age.
