Tyler Baron was listed at 6'5" 260 on Tennessee's roster. Wonder if we need more depth at edge because we are moving Shand, Jones, and/or others inside.
Edit: Imagine landing Suggs, Lane, Baron, and Walker... Would be some nice pieces out of the portal this late in the game.
UPDATE: Walker commit to Michigan. They also picked up Aamir Hall yesterday. Others have said it’s possible that Baron may have signed something at Ole Miss and can’t transfer within the SEC.

LSU has become a legit contender for both former Louisville, Tennessee transfers EDGE Tyler Baron and DB Wesley Walker, according to On3's @PeteNakos_ ??

I hope but they haven’t visited yet

This would be an insane way to fill the defense out
Baron has been extremely effective in the SEC and Walker is a multi year starter
Pair those with Suggs and Lane and you've salvaged this window imo.

If we are taking Baron because we are moving those guys inside then we are in serious trouble. Obviously the coaches even this week thought those guys weren’t interior quality. I’m hoping we land Suggs.

I like it

They are brothers and want to play at the same school together, apparently Louisville collective isn't paying out what they promised players. I don't think lsu is moving anybody inside.

Exactly

You are right

So who starts at edge between Swinson, Womack, and Baron? Would be helluva edge lineup.
Posted on 5/14/24 at 12:04 pm to lsufan0582
Baron in 2023 had 10.5 TFL and 6 sacks. He probably would've been our best DL last year. Get them both please.

A poster or two said we are not Great at DE. Just okay. So a former five star DE may fit.

I thought Baron was going to Ole Miss at one time? Regardless I'm glad he's not. They got enough D-line talent in the portal. He and Nolan could be scary.

We have a lot of talented bodies at edge just not much experience. It makes the edge coach’s job easier if he can slowly bring them along during season if he has a seasoned starter he can play a lot in beginning.

I wasn’t saying they weren’t quality players. I was replying to the OP saying we were getting Baron to move Shand and whoever inside. Coaches obviously haven’t thought that was a good idea so far. Not sure why I got all the downvotes.

Wouldn't Baron have to sit out this year due to SEC spring transfer rules or did that change?

Shand is listed as 6'5" 275 pounds. I'd be nervous about him getting blow into the linebackers because he cant get underneath the guard

You can’t have ever have enough pass rushers

He could play the 3 tech or the 4i.
He could 1-1 with quickness and power.
Long arms could keep the OL off of him

I imagine our DL this year is going to be the Gumbo package. A bit of this and that to hopefully confuse the offense. We have some talent just not a lot at pure DT. I hope Dom Mc can step in and play, at least as a rotation piece.
