Army decided to call a time out with 6 seconds before half instead of just letting it run out. Hail Mary was picked and he got popped on the return. Totally unnecessary on every facet. Really sucks

Yeah it sucks but it also tells you LSU needs to do a better job of getting the right players here to fill those spots quit taking chances on guys from smaller colleges or guys with attitudes. Get out there like LSU used to do and bring in some stud recruits! Cant get lazy and cheap on top talent at the db spots. The previous staff didnt leave much but the 2 years kelly has had to fill those spots he has not done a good job of bringing in top notch Talent. This is LSU we should never be this bad in the secondary especially with the talent in the state.

How do you derive this from him getting injured?

So Zy Alexander wouldn’t have been injured if he weren’t a Southeastern transfer? I don’t understand. The “small college” guy was turning into one of our only reliable DBs.

I don’t completely disagree with this but we had to field a team last year, which meant we had to go get a bunch of transfers to play DB. Would y’all have rather CBK completely punted on 2022 and not brought in any transfers? Just start freshmen in a transition year (which makes it tough to close out the HS class)?

This year we went and got a RS sophomore CB who started 5 games at Ohio State as a RS freshman. Out for the season due to a broken leg.

Our best returning DB (one of the transfers from last year) was diagnosed with brain cancer.

You get Duce Chestnut who said it was a “dream come true” and he “almost broke into tears” when he got the LSU offer.. who has clearly now had some sort of falling out or off-field issue.

You bring Denver Harris - our top CB target from the 2022 HS class - over but he’s a headcase.

You get an FCS standout in Zy Alexander but now he’s injured and apparently it looks bad.

You have Ashton Stamps who started to step up but got a groin injury.

At some point you’re just snakebit.
