On Wednesday, Indiana transfer Philip Blidi will arrive on campus to begin his LSU visit in Baton Rouge, he tells On3.


quote:

Blidi is coming off a 2023 season with the Hoosies where he played in 12 games with 11 starts, logging 30 tackles, four tackles for loss, two quarterback hurries and a pass breakup.

Prior to his 2023 season at Indiana, Blidi spent three seasons at Texas Tech. During his time with the Red Raiders, he appeared in 34 games and posted 39 tackles, six tackles for a loss and two sacks.


He just visited Washington and visits Oklahoma next weekend

Veteran power 5 bodies at DT are sorely needed. Need depth right now, and it's better than trying to convert an offensive lineman. If we can find another Jordan Jefferson or two in the portal, that would be great. He doesn't have to be All-SEC out there, but we need quality experience and depth to plug holes and not get their shite pushed in.

That can be viewed two ways. One, he's performing well enough to outplay guys with much more DT experience. The other is that the DTs on the roster are so bad that the best option is converted OL

It's kind of like when LSU basketball had a tuba player starting at Center. Just because he was a starter on an SEC team didn't mean he was good. It meant that LSU had no other option.

He was originally supposed be at LSU from 10th-12th. Now we’re just a weekday visit. I would say he’s unlikely

Let’s you know how awful that room is when a guy that’s been playing DT for 3 weeks has already passed Jalen Lee and Shon Washington

I mean, there’s been nothing to suggest coming into the season that we had anyone on the roster at DT other than Guillory who has what it takes to be a decent SEC DT. Hope there is a huge surprise, but my hopes are on a couple of decent transfers.

BK needs to take him to Tony’s for crawfish. Maybe some boudin balls to sweeten the deal.
