Ed Orgeron Comments On What LSU's Defensive Line Could Look Like This Upcoming Season

Ed Orgeron joined ESPN's 104.5 "Off The Bench" Tuesday morning and talked about how LSU's defensive linemen will fit into the new 4-3 defense under new defensive coordinator Bo Pelini.

Orgeron started off by talking about TK McLendon, who was one of the top junior college prospects for 2019 as a tight end but has moved to left end on the defensive line.

"We got TK McLendon who we redshirted last year," Orgeron said.

"He was playing tight end and John Robinson said to me 'Coach, why don't you look at TK McLendon and defensive end?' TK is 6-6, 270, and runs a 4.7 40-yard dash. He looks good in the drills right now so we have him at left end."

"We have Justin Thomas, who is back with the football team, at right end. He's a little heavy right now but Justin is extremely quick."

"BJ Ojulari is a mid-year graduate. I think BJ is going to be an All-American here. He's a great player."

"The guy that has stood out the most to me has been Andre Anthony," Orgeron said. "This may be a position change that has helped him from being a stand-up outside linebacker to more of a 4-3 defensive end in the three-point stance. He's leading this team and doing well."

"Glenn Logan, Tyler Shelvin, Apu Ika are the guys inside along with Neil Farrell. And then we have Eric Taylor coming in. We have Jaquelin Roy who I think is going to be a force. Jacobian Guillory who squatted 705-pounds..."
