CB Ethan Johnson | 247 Sports
39 career starts? All Sun-Belt last year? That’s our guy.

Think for moment... what has a guy like this been doing for the last 8 or 9 months?

Probably worked out leading up to his Pro Day but he hasnt been apart of an offseason program.

Didnt get picked up as an UDFA and hasnt been on any NFL training camp roster.

He played in the Sun Belt conference.

You think this guy could come in here 2 weeks before the season starts and make a difference over the guys we already have?

Depth. CB3 needs help (my opinion)

Injuries occur. 9 game SEC schedule. More in that room that can play, the merrier.

Sorry, brother, but you can't explain common sense. People either have it or they don't. Someone asking that question is either trolling or beyond reach.

Exactly. We need these depth guys starting week 3, not week 1

CB is one of the easiest ramp up positions.

Especially if you play man coverage a lot.

By my count according to LSU sports, we have 112 on roster right now. That's including players like shanklin, reliford, and anding.

Does anyone know how this works out, I'm assuming there's a max roster, and that number seems high as it is. Any insight?

105 is the max according to everything I’m reading regarding official NCAA rules. Would have to make some cuts I assume.

Absolute worst case scenario he is a body, but do you honestly think he hasn't been working on his game? He didn't just give up on football over the past 8 months - he entered the portal because he's probably still able to contribute to a team. Even if that's our CB3 4 or 5, it would add some security where we desperately need it.

We could use CB bodies.
