LSU junior linebacker Josh White announced on social media Monday afternoon that he is entering his name into the transfer portal.

The former four-star prospect from Houston, Texas (Cy Creek HS) appeared in every game during his freshman season in 2020, recording six tackles. He missed all of the 2021 season due to injuries.

LSU returns Micah Baskerville, Mike Jones Jr., Greg Penn III, and Jared Small from last year's squad. The Tigers also signed five-star linebacker Harold Perkins and transfers
West Weeks and Kolbe Fields.

If it means that he doesn’t think he can compete against the other LBers we have…maybe a good thing?

Exactly. Its all about getting reps and tape out there. If you cant get it here gotta go play somewhere.

He is too small to play LB at the SEC level.

Don't blame the kids, blame the system. If for 'many' reasons he doesn't see the LSU fit anymore, it is an easy off ramp....
