A massive turnover probably would have included at least one player from another position.


Such as Jazz Ferguson?
Or Saivion Smith?
Or Isiah Washington?
Or Brandon Harris?

Good post.

Undoubtedly the best post I have ever seen you make. Heck, you even did research - very impressive. Maybe you did learn a little something from RichMomma. Congrats.

Let's take it a little further and look at the transfers since Eaux took over.

OUT: Such as Jazz Ferguson? He finished his LSU career with two catches for 17 yards,
IN: Jonathan Giles - Texas Tech's leading receiver as a sophomore. 1,158 receiving yards and 13 touchdowns on 69 catches. Was added to the Biletnikoff Award watch list midway through the season

OUT: Or Saivion Smith? 4-star was expected to challenge for significant playing time this season. His playing time was far from guaranteed, though. Smith and redshirt freshman Andraez Williams were seen rotating during several practices, each getting a crack at the position behind Toliver, the projected starter at cornerback opposite Donte Jackson
IN: Terrence Alexander - 3-star composite 4-star 24/7. Transferred from Stanford. Career back-up. signed for depth at CB position.

OUT: Or Isiah Washington? missed the final few weeks of spring practice for academic reasons. He played six games in his LSU career, all of them coming late in his freshman season of 2015. Transferred to Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College. Academics casualty
IN: Breiden Fehoko Started all 25 games of his Red Raider career. and the ESPN 300 (51) Ranked as the No. 4 defensive lineman in this year's class by Scout and the No. 24 overall prospect

OUT: Or Brandon Harris? Harris decided after the 2016 season to leave LSU. He began the season as the starter but lost that job to Danny Etling by the second week. Former LSU QB Brandon Harris struggles, benched in debut for North Carolina
IN: Thaddeus Moss The No. 123 player nationally regardless of position by Rivals.com ... No. 6 tight end nationally and No. 7 overall player in North Carolina by Rivals.com ... The No. 18 tight end nationally, No. 2 in North Carolina by Scout.com
