Saw watermelons for sale on the side of the road so I stopped. KT has been farming for 2 years in Erwinville. His melons can also be found at Hi Nabor stores. Also said he will be set up near the lakes at times. The name of the farm is Excellent Farms. Look ‘em up on social media and support a local boy.

Haven’t cut yet. He’s got red and yellow. $12 for red and $10 for yellow. Not bad imo.

Location or address of roadside stand please? I looked at the social media but it only listed a post office box on it. TIA

Just a truck and a trailer. He was on Oneal Lane in front of the old Hobby Lobby.

At least he never quit. He may not have panned out for whatever reason. Lack of love of the game, poorly evaluated, probably a little of both. But he showed up and now apparently owns a business. I wish my kids had this much work ethic.

I’m pretty sure his injury permanently put him back. His technique wasn’t great in HS and once his physical abilities were hindered he just couldn’t put the building blocks together. Really unfortunate but I’ve heard he’s a good guy.

Yep. This happens to a lot of players.

People always expect the guys to make a full recovery but they often don’t. A lot of them are never the same.

Kayshon Boutte is another example.

Not sure why someone is downvoting all the posts in this thread. Seem positive and supportive.

Kardell has some media out there on FB and IG under the Excellent Farms brand. Good for him.

If it’s not a Black Diamond variety. It’s not a watermelon.

There should be no hate for Kardell. He loves LSU and worked his arse off. Respect the hell out of that. Wish it worked out on the field.
