re: Emery and lack of touches..

Probably been told they are going to red shirt him. He has already played in a few games this year already. Why blow a year of eligibility if he is not needed.

He's played in two games. Has two more in which he can appear and still keep his redshirt year.



Edit to add:
The LSU website has conflicting information concerning the number of games in which John Emery has played..

When looking at stats > miscellaneous (which is participation), "Emery Jr., John" has participated in two games. However, if you go game by game stats and look at participation there, "Emery Jr." shows up in two games, but "Emery" shows up in an additional four. So, that could be a total of six games.

There are also two separate lines for John Emery under season rushing stats, one with a Jr. and one without. The "John Emery" line says 6 games played, but the "John Emery Jr." line says 2 games played.

Not sure if this has to do with the recent update to the stats page or something else.
