Anyone know where I can find info about walking on the football team?

Do you need HS tape?

And when are tryouts?

Try outs are sometime during the summer. You need to have your high school coach contact LSU and set up a try out session. And highlights are recommended.

Good luck to you.
I hope you dress, but it would be a thrill for me just to be on the scout team.

You have to be on TOPs I do believe.

You can't be a dummy and walk-on. You have to bring up the team GPA...seriously.

You should not be on here asking for advice. You should talk to the highest ranking coach that you can and ask for this information. Coaches love the ones that put themselves out there. Phone call would be nice but email might be better so you do not interupt anything important. Ask your high school football coach for some advice on what to talk and ask about. Thats the way you go about it.

Don't let anyone discourage you. I know a few players that earned scholarships and played a heck of a lot. One was the deep snapper for a couple of years. Find a way to contribute to the team where they are weak. It is true....some coach must give you a chance. Usually there is a coach on staff that is in charge. Call the football office and keep calling until you get the info you need. They usually invite a dozen or so to report with the freshmen. Try to get that status. Calls from LSU alums really help.

Contact Athletic Department they will tell you the dates
Contact your HS coach for a recommendation
Make sure you meet the requirements to become a walk-on player
Don't think you can walk on and then make an arse out of yourself, they have more than a few scout members that could be playing at smaller schools
