One analyst weighs pros and cons of Caleb Williams at LSU

Crazier things have happened on the Bayou.

Brian Kelly has made a living in the transfer portal this offseason. Thus far adding a total of 12 players to the team through the transfer portal. With three quarterbacks on the roster for 2022, would he dare go after another one?

The top-rated transfer available is Caleb Williams. The former Oklahoma quarterback that took over for a struggling Spencer Rattler in 2021. After Lincoln Riley bolted for the USC job it seemed like Williams was destined to follow. When he entered the transfer portal, everyone expected an announcement would come sooner or later.
