I will keep everyone updated as I get more info............


But IMO don’t see him leaving. He’s entering to explore his options bc of some personal issues that I won’t get into. Also having some family stuff going on right now.

Again, sky isn’t falling. Staff is obviously all in on Marcel. Let’s treat this similar to the LSU bball players declaring. Testing the waters bc of his situation but I think we keep him.

If he were to leave, I would consider it a personal failure on my part. Let’s ride.

Not that I’m being skeptical, but that’s hard to believe. For those not informed, what is your connection to Marcel?

Is taking a year off to redshirt and get some things straightened out an option?

Obviously not outing myself on an anonymous message board.

You can believe what you choose to believe but what I’m saying is 100% fact, direct from the horse’s mouth

Sounds like doesn’t want to play linebacker and is a way to get coaches to agree to that or “I have other options.” Just a guess

Vanilla, can you at least partially explain how you get so close to LSU players?


Like....how did you get on such acquainted terms with marcel that he talks on FaceTime with you?


How does he know who you are?

Did he come to realize that Mo Hampton is ahead of him on the depth chart at safety?

He doesn't. If dudes for real then he's on a first name basis with every athlete on Lsu basketball and football teams.

The timing of when the news broke (Friday evening news dump) does suggest that lsu is informed of, if not involved in, the decision.

Not first name basis with all of them.... but most sure. We run in the same circles and I make sure to look out for them.

Yes coaches very involved and obviously doing everything to keep him here.

He’s a first round talent.

There’s more to the story..... What you’re saying makes no sense. If he’s doing this to threaten the coaches about his position then sadly he needs to leave.

I don’t mean it like f him gtfo. I mean that if he’s trying to strong arm the coaches about his position, that’s not gonna work and he’d probably be happier elsewhere.
