re: anybody leaving early this year???

We need to consider every single 3 year starter as an early entrant to the draft and just forget about them staying. If they stay like La'el, then it is a bonus.

We are looking at a future LSU with no one redshirting and no seniors of note starting, unless it is someone like Mett or Hilliard/Magee who started late and who is trying to establish himself.

If a guy is starting by his Soph year, just consider him gone once he gets 3 years in. Sad, but true.

LSU is bloated after a 15 year run. Fans, players, coaches, program - all bloated. We will have to have some lean years to get hungry and focused again, I am afraid.
