Last Tuesday when I attended the team’s second practice of the spring, I noted that there were a ton of dropped passes, off-target throws, and general sloppiness. This was not the case yesterday. In fact, I’d say that compared to a week ago the team looked like a fine-oiled machine. You can see for yourself the improvement by watching my three-minute video below:

quote:

What he did say is, “We haven’t gotten the results yet. As soon as we get the results officially, I’ll let you know what happened.” Martin has been working as the No. 1. buck linebacker, the edge rushing position that Arden Key normally plays. As for Key, I haven’t heard anything official on his situation, but the word I’m getting is that he is still expected to return this summer. As you’ll see in my video, Ray Thornton, André Anthony, and Isaiah Washington worked out at the buck position under the direction of Coach Orgeron yesterday.


quote:

As for the other injuries, Guice is dealing with a “swollen ankle or something like that” that Coach O described as “nothing bad.” LaCouture told The Advocate on Monday that he’s dealing with “scar tissue” issues in his rehabilitated knee, and that is presumed to be the reason for his absence. “Greedy” Williams’ injury was not disclosed but Coach O said he should be back in a couple of days.


quote:

The team held a scrimmage Saturday that was closed to the media and to the public, and Coach O said the offense had the upper hand. “Ran some up-tempo and got the defense very tired,” he said. One player Orgeron singled out as having a good scrimmage is running back Derrell Williams, who has dropped his weight down to 229. This is consistent with an email I received from someone who attended the scrimmage as a guest and left very impressed with Williams.

That would be awesome if Darrel williams dropped some weight.

And sure missing Key is huge, but last years (2016) had some huge defensive recruits that have something to prove. We had some DE/Buck studs in that class. Sci Martin needs to take advantage of this opportunity.

"The buck players — Andre Anthony, Isaiah Washington and Martin — mostly work with Orgeron during practice. The F-linebackers — Corey Thompson, Devin Voorhies and M.J. Patterson — work with Dennis Johnson."

I wonder if this means divinity is officially an inside backer

Donald Long was a class act and we miss him. The good news is that his son Scott is a chip off the old block. We're lucky to have such a great site.

I don't think Scott has the same or as many, if any of his Dad's Louisiana and LSU contacts, yet. Over time they will come.

That is still the first website I go to every morning when I wake up.
