Reactions as LSU fires defensive coordinator Matt House

To say LSU fans were relieved with the change would be an understatement.

Though it took longer than some expected, LSU coach [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] opted to make sweeping changes on the defensive side of the ball after that unit massively underachieved in 2023.

Defensive coordinator [autotag]Matt House[/autotag] is out, as is almost the entire defensive staff. The Tigers parted ways with safeties coach [autotag]Kerry Cooks[/autotag], cornerbacks coach [autotag]Robert Steeples[/autotag] and defensive line coach [autotag]Jimmy Lindsey[/autotag], as well.

It was a move that didn’t come as a major surprise after that unit held the team back despite possessing one of the most prolific offenses in program history led by a Heisman Trophy winner.

To say LSU fans were relieved with the change would be an understatement. Here’s how the fanbase reacted.

Recruiting Rankings: LSU has a top 10 2024 signing class per On3

The Tigers sneak into the top 10 with their 28-man class, per On3.

After a stress-free early signing day, LSU’s 2024 class is more or less locked up.

All 27 players who entered the period committed signed, and the Tigers even added a 28th commit on Friday in interior offensive lineman [autotag]Coen Echols[/autotag], who also signed.

Coach Brian Kelly may not be completely done yet as the team still looks to sway five-star Texas A&M commit [autotag]Dominick McKinley[/autotag], but for now, we have a good idea of where this class stands.

While the 247Sports Composite Rankings have LSU’s signing class outside the top 10, there’s a discrepancy with the On3 industry rankings, in which the Tigers do sneak into the top 10.

Here’s how the full top 25 looks following the early signing period.

Twitter reacts to Chiefs’ Week 11 loss to Eagles on ‘Monday Night Football’

Twitter was buzzing after the #Chiefs’ Week 11 loss to the #Eagles on Monday Night Football.

The Kansas City Chiefs dropped their Week 11 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles in brutal fashion after jumping out to a 10-point lead in the first half of the Super Bowl LVII rematch.

With momentum on its side coming out of halftime, Kansas City was shut out in the game’s final two quarters and was completely outmatched by Philadelphia’s effort on both sides of the ball.

The Chiefs’ season is still far from over. Losses are part of life in the NFL, and while primetime defeats lend themselves to a particularly painful sting, Kansas City can still pick up the pieces to finish its schedule with strong showings through the end of the year.

But the team’s fans were absolutely inconsolable on social media after this loss to the Eagles. Their reactions ranged from distraught to angry to comical as they sought to cope with the Chiefs’ latest disappointing showing.

Social media reacts to Chiefs TE Travis Kelce’s old, bizzarre tweets

Check out some of the best reactions to #Chiefs TE Travis Kelce’s old tweets

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is known for his larger-than-life personality. Kelce’s joie de vivre has made him an NFL icon, and one of the most beloved players in the league today.

But nothing could have prepared uninitiated fans for some of the All-Pro pass catcher’s tweets from his college days at the University of Cincinnati that surfaced this week.

Kelce, it seems, was a bit of a goofball back in the day, and didn’t have much of a filter when using social media in his late teens and early 20s.

From comical misspellings to his off-kilter sense of humor, Kelce’s old posts are jarring yet also endearing, painting the picture of a person who has grown up a lot over the years since the tweets first graced the internet.

Fans reacted to his musings on Twitter this week and provided some levity as Kansas City prepares for its Super Bowl LVII rematch against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday.

Reactions as LSU men’s basketball is stunned by Nicholls

The Tigers’ baffling loss to Nicholls on Friday night felt like a new low.

LSU’s men’s basketball team entered the 2023-24 season hoping to reverse last season’s woes, but instead hit what felt like a new low on Friday night.

The Tigers were stunned at the Pete Maravich Assembly Center by Nicholls, losing 68-66 on a last-second go-ahead shot.

LSU looked like it was heading for disaster as the Colonels jumped out to a 16-4 lead and took a 44-25 advantage to the locker room after a horrendous first-half shooting performance. The Tigers came out in the second half on fire, erasing the deficit while shooting above 50% in the frame.

They took a lead with 3:11 to play, but they couldn’t manage to pull away, allowing Nicholls to take the game at the end.

It’s a cataclysmic loss in a crucial season for [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag]. Here’s how the LSU faithful reacted online.
