@Sheadixon: Les Miles confirms #LSU has added Penn St QB Robert Bolden to the roster.


Welcome Mr. Bolden!! Put on the P&G!

To report to LSU on Wednesday

Per Derek Ponamsky - Bolden DOES NOT take a spot from the 2013 recruiting class. They will know in advance how many EE they are expecting and will adjust accordingly.

quote:

@TheNLD: RT @snslant: It sounds like this Rob Bolden to LSU thing is going to happen. Bolden is a JR QB from PSU who was part-time starter in 2011


He'll count in the 2012 class as long as there's room under the 25/85.

If he's a Tiger I'll support him for the rest of his career, regardless of what others say on here.

Congrats, Rob!

Will he be able to play this coming season or does he have to sit out one year?

Good for him if he comes, I really don't see him getting ahead of the two we have, and we have two really good ones coming in next year.

He's immediately eligible. And from what I was told, he's now a Tiger.

The Penn St. players can play right away, because of the unexpected sanctions.

2012 presumably... how would a "2013" recruit be eligible to play this season?

How does this affect our other 2 QB recruits?

If they aren't afraid of each other, I don't think they will mind the competition. Plus, you would think Miles would've talked to them about adding Bolden before he did

From what I understand, for PSU players, teams get an exemption for the 85 total on the team. Seems like there would be an exemption on the yearly total as well.

It doesn't. Bolden will be a senior in 2013 when Rettig and Jennings are true freshmen. We can only assume both would redshirt in 2013 anyway.
