LSU Coach Lane Kiffin Praises Dilin Jones Amid 50 Newcomers

LSU’s spring camp concluded Saturday after five weeks of integrating a large influx of new players. The Tigers used the period to familiarize transfers and early‑enrollees with the playbook and coaching staff.

- The roster gained 50 newcomers compared to the previous offseason. - Lane Kiffin said there is still a ton of work to be done on the offense. - Kiffin praised newcomer running back Dilin Jones for his protection, vision, feet, and ball running, calling him a bright spot.

The influx of newcomers signals a rebuilding phase for LSU, requiring time for chemistry and scheme mastery. Jones’ early performance suggests a potential upgrade at running back, but Kiffin’s remarks indicate the offense as a whole remains a work in progress. The coaching staff will likely focus on tightening pass protection and improving overall execution during fall camp.
