What ever happened to Sione Palelei?

He was a one time LSU commit who decided to go to Oklahoma state never to be heard from again. Injuries?

Injured all last season. Probably got pushed to the back of the depth chart

He doesnt have a carry this season, not sure what's going with him. Must still be hurt?

He was replaced by Sione Teuhema.

We don't need him, either.

Buried in the depth chart has no stats and would be the same here. He should transfer if he wants to get playing time.

Right now Okie St has 2 juniors playing ahead of him. Chris Carson (JUCO transfer) and Rennie Childs seem to be getting the majority of work, but if Palelei stays 2 more years, he and Carr (true freshman) could end up being the new Carson and Childs combo.

I think he was injured his sr year at EA too, LSU still held schollie for him but I remember him feeling like OSU would be a better fit.

didn't he have a cousin on staff? or, someone on the roster at that point who he was related to?

Didn't have the chest to compete with Fournette.

Can you blame him?

If I remember correct he was the only other running back we were taking that year. He would have been getting the carries that DW has been getting I would imagine. If he wasn't hurt I mean. I don't think we offered DW until after Palelei de-committed.

Well Les does have a history of RB by committee......
Anyway, bet he wishes he was riding the pine in Baton Rouge rather than riding the pine in Stillwater, OK.

I thought we told Palelei to look elsewhere so we could land DW

Nice work by the assholes on this board to trash a kid. Also a lot of misinformation, Boo has been plagued with knee problems again this year just as last and his Sr year at EA. He's still working hard to get back, but who knows how effective he'll be.
To clear things up, Boo and DW both attended the LSU Camp to basically compete for an offer. Palelei ran 4.4, did well in his workout and was offered that day. He committed immediately, but once he visited OSU and got around his cousin and some childhood friends from Utah, he changed his mind and called Frank from up there to decommit. Cam and Les visited him when he got home, but his mind was made up. DW was offered not long after. Palelei was told he was being recruited to be a Change of pace back and work out of the slot at times by Frank and Cam. His family still hosted the Teuhema's on their visits and Hoko Fanaika was there every weekend until they recently moved back to Utah. When the next of five younger brothers blows up, I suspect he'll be very interested in LSU.
