So you are saying we need to find another scholarship if Valentine comes in?

I stand corrected.

It's a numbers thing and it cost LSU the starting kicker. It's not Les's fault, it's poor management by the compliance office.
Now you may say some other kids may have looked better in the spring but real games sometimes make a big difference to a kicker.
Next, starters are not given the starting job at the end of spring...you may have made a great run at the spot but camp right before the season is where the line up is formed and finished...Seen many guys have a great spring and get smoked in camp....They screwed the numbers up and it cost us our starting kicker who is nominated for a few NCAA kicking awards....
No, it is not normal for a preferred walk on to earn a scholarship and then not be renewed after you earned a starting job. Problem is walk on's do not usually beat out full scholarship guys like he did last year. Hope we can recover...
