Can't wait to have Key, Phillips, Talyor, Chassion as our starting 4 or Chassion, Phillips, Talyor, Cherry, or Anthony!! Going to be a blast watching this defense the next 3 or 4 years!

Also, I love the helmet visor that he has in that avatar pic. The tiger head on the visor is awesome. Love our uniforms.

God our linebacking corp is going to be very stud-like/beast-mode for a long time to come. Aranda coaching these guys is going to be awesome. Our defense is stacked...college football offenses fricked. Geaux tigers.

This kid is gonna be a great player folks. What Adams did in Hooties place Phillips will do in Mosses.

Moses'...jk man, I totally agree with you. We have some freaks on the defensive side of the ball. They're going to be fun to watch. They have the potential to be one of the best defenses in LSU history...that's no bull shite.

Sick! Love single digit numbers on Dline and LBs. I hope the new dude from TT wears 4 here too.
