Like saying Aranda's defense is easy to learn, then saying we will miss Lacouture's ability to get people lined up?

Valentine looks severely over weight in his bio pic. Anyone know if that is recent or from 2014?

Makes it sound like Aranda's defense is easy to learn for the players if the above statements are true.


The OP alluded that the defense is easy to learn. I didn't see where Mike states that in his comments. Lac appears to have grasped the defense quickly and we will miss that leadership especially early on.

Not sure. Thought it was old, but can't confirm.

I don't think you can tell how fat he is from that though. He's a huge mammajamma and his head/neck are just thick.

Fat & thick are 2 different things. He looks like a blob

Yeah I see what you're saying.

For some reason, I was thinking his facial hair is different now. In his 2014 bio pic on LSUsports.net he has the exact same hair and facial hair as the one on their now, but the head angle is a bit different.

I wonder if they took several in 2014 and just recycled an old one.

The good news for LSU is that Valentine is in better shape than ever before, weighing just north of 320 pounds, which is right where they want him this fall. He is expected to participate in practices starting on Wednesday, but won't be allowed to officially play until August 21, after completing an academic course, which wraps on August 20. Nearly everyone we have spoken with on the matter believes he will make an impact in week one at the noseguard position--possibly the only question mark on a deep LSU defense.

Definitely looks like the used an old pic.

Report of him being 320 is GREAT news. Dude has obviously been working his butt off. Literally.
