I just don’t understand this. Presumably, he is #2 on the depth chart behind Shelvin, who hasn’t been the model of endurance since arriving. You would think Livingston would be in line for pretty significant playing time.
The university is required to put the name in the portal shortly after they get the request. For all we know the lineman are getting drunk, breaking up with a gf, then sending a late night email to go into the portal.

Is he worried about Ika coming in? Cotton made no sense but this one might actually be a #processed.

If you’ve ever played any sport you know when your out classed........one guy in front of you and you have a chance.....2 and you start looking around......glad Cotton is stayin cause I think he’s gonna be a good one, but we still have to drop 6 players to get down to 85.........

Feelings are going to get hurt, it sucks, but that’s the nature of the buisiness

No reason for Cotton to transfer IMO.

Livingston on the other hand will be passed up by Apu (sp?)

Wonder if there is any coaching backlash? Don't see how there couldn't be.

Frankly, minus the hyperbole, it does seem backwards- we do rotate WRs much more than DL.

Not to mention all the injuries we had.

WHen you withdraw it shows you transfering to the same school.

It's pretty sad actually. This is what recruiting has done. Coaches have to basically worship the kids during recruiting. Then, when they get to campus, all that is gone. Some kids can't handle it. Others thrive. If these kids can't see the opportunity ahead of them at lsu on the DL. Well, I'll just stop there.

I hope a coach stared him in the eyes and told him the truth.

I may be way off base here, but isn't meatball's contract up? Are they getting word that he may not get extended? Just a thought.

Well, say he is virtually tied with someone else for a spot. Wouldn't you think the coach would lean towards the someone else instead of him?
