Oh it's certainly broken... but if it's already broken we may as well pick up the pieces and go win baw

According to Scone tGOAT, LSU had one open roster spot

Who is getting processed two weeks before game 1 to add more players?

Zxavian Harris being that DT would be awesome. Adding those 3 plus the BYU OL who has 2,600 career snaps would be best case scenario.

It does not seem to matter anymore but how does this work with being a student? Internship at Court to Table?

Per ND fans, he’s good and would’ve been a contributor for them this year. This is an excellent pickup.

He actually graduated from Notre Dame in 3 years and was working on his masters per an interview he did that I found online.

Posted this on the thread on the Rant but looks like it’s anchored / this is the main thread, so…

Really good against the run and setting the edge. Great on Special Teams. Great locker room guy. Had a huge game against UGA in the CFP quarterfinals two years ago with a fumble recovery and a sack.

Not an elite pass rusher, but without knowing LSU’s DE depth chart, this should at minimum be a really nice depth / rotational / ST piece for you guys.

ETA: Rant thread is no longer anchored haha, but I’ll just leave this here/in both anyway.

Doesn't look like it .. in 54 games he had 61 tackles and 4 sacks.


If he was good enough to play for Notre Dame the last 2 years, he is good enough to play at LSU. They are looking for experience and depth, he provides both.

Most likely some players that weren’t going to see much playing time, hate to see it but in this nil era, it comes with the territory unfortunately.

Matt mascona was reporting that there was only one available roster spot, and I was convinced it would be Pyburns. Positive note, junior wasn’t drafted or signed because of his injury during pro day. So it’s a good story for both sides. But I believe we are capped now

We aren’t. Walk Ons take up a spot so we can take as many as the number of walk ons we have if we wanted to

Just depth, need bodies at edge


More than just depth, this guy is a solid rotation piece. Had a sack and a fumble recovery vs Georgia in the CFP a couple of years ago. Good run defender. This makes me feel much better about the Edge group.
