By Scores.wiki Staff · March 25, 2026 at 09:37 PM ET

LSU football was active in the transfer portal during the offseason, with significant roster turnover. However, head coach Brian Kelly anticipates a quieter spring in terms of player movement. Kelly expressed satisfaction with the current roster and stated that he would not be surprised if there were no further additions or departures via the portal in the coming months.

Following a flurry of transfers in the winter, which saw LSU welcome 19 new players and bid farewell to 16, the team's focus has shifted. Kelly highlighted the team's development and noted that while they are open to opportunities to enhance the roster, the immediate priority is stability. Defensive coordinator Blake Baker emphasized the importance of adding experienced players to address gaps in the team, a strategy that has been largely implemented already. With the roster taking shape, LSU is poised to maintain its current composition and build depth as they prepare for the upcoming season.
