that's certainly a step up from D-II someone was predicting yesterday.

He has to sit out a year.

Why do players transfer to a small mid-major in DIA over going to a DIAA and playing right away? I would understand going to a big mid-major or another BCS program and waiting a year, but why would want to go to an Arkansas State over say Jacksonville State (closer to his home anyway).

I'm glad he came here, but this is probably the best thing for him. We took him as a possible quarterback back up plan to Zach Lee. Well now we have Mett, Rivers, Liggins, Randal and hopefully Rettig.

I doubted he was ever going to start or play as a safety for LSU.

That being said, I wonder if Malzhan will use him as a quarterback up there for the read option? I think he'd be good in that role.

Did David Jenkins transfer? I heard a rumor, but that's crazy. He's going to get PT. That being said, we do have to remember that the secondary lost their positon coach. That doesn't help guys who are already not happy be any more happy.

One of my best friends signed with Arkansas St this year and he called Gus earlier tonight to ask about Gibson and he was told Sam will be playing QB
