Plenty of players dont make the jump early because nobody is forcing them to. It's not always the case someone makes the jump early just because they can. McGlothern was elite last year for Ark too, why didnt he go pro? We could go on for days why didnt x player go pro when he was a high level player. Because you choose to stay in college doesnt meant you werent a high level player in your 3rd season.

Again, completely unbiased source (PFF) had him as the #4 graded corner in the SEC this season, that's elite. He's not just some guy with LA origins, he's a very high level SEC starter with many teams banging down his door.

Not to mention he's WAY WAY WAY better than anyone we currently have and there's zero arguing that. Our corner play was pathetic last season overall. People are excited for Zy Alexander like he was anything better than average/above average. That's how low of expectations people got at corner after watching last season, we wish we had him back because essentially everyone else couldnt stick.

Compared to our corners he is Deon Sanders. Can't lose him to Ole Miss.

I never said he wasn't. But there is also a market-rate for players and he's apparently asking for the "elite" slot. Ole Miss thinks he's worth that and others disagree, including LSU.

That's the world we are in. Whether LSU is wrong on this will depend on how he performs next year, and also who LSU gets in the portal at CB.
