If Russel Shepard leaves (or others)...does that open up a recruiting scholly?

Forgive me ignorance on college recruiting, but it appears that Shepard is leaving for the draft or trasferring...

Does that allow LSU to get another recruit?

can't blame him if he wants to play out his final year somewhere else though.

I don't blame him either.


Kadron Boone may be thinking this same thing.

Yes, the moment he decides where he is transferring, a spot will open up which we will need to sign our 25 this year

I think Boone has a good chance to see a lot of playing time next year, especially if Randle leaves

I think he is reacting to some serious blow-back from his earlier tweet re: playing time.

No, it does not change the 25 new high school recruits rule by the NCAA,but it does open up one of the 85 total scholarships for a transfer, grayshirt to full scholly, or Jr.college transfer,etc.

Nothing "official" yet, but it appears he is transferring or leaving for the NFL. Most likely transferring.

I'm betting not. Just struggling with a little butt-hurt.

It would make zero sense to transfer for his final season.

He would not get drafted. I can't see this happening

Sources tell me Russell Shepard is debating going to the NFL, not transferring to another program. Sunday is the deadline.
