On off the bench with Culotta and T-Bob. I know this was assumed because of Dodd leaving and whatever is going on with Clapp. My question is, is this just a spring time move, or did we luck up and get a guy who overlooked at first?

Also, he said Deculus can "lift the house" and "is a man".

Clapp is the starter, but since he is out Cush is getting the 1st team reps

Man, from not even on LSU's radar to flipping on the last day (probably a package deal with Scott) to 2 on the depth chart as a redshirt freshman. Good for him.

I know Lloyd well. He is a great kid, polite, nice, well mannered, soft spoken, and very respectful to everyone. However, on the field he is a beast! It will be great to watch him as a Tiger for the next 3-4 years.

Lloyd is a great kid as someone said earlier. Pretty light on his feet. I am happy for him. It's nice see a good kid get a break

Crap, I just asked the same question in the Deculus thread.

Has he ever played center before?

We only have two centers on the roster, and since one is injured, the other is 1st team no matter what.

I think Lloyd will be a fine center when his time comes, but this is temporary until Clapp can return to claim his starting spot.

I'm thinking the Charles kid out of Mississippi will be a center also. Well be good there.

I may not be remembering correctly, but I think that was his primary position at Dutchtown.

I played ball with his dad at EA and I am sure he is proud of his sons accomplishments. I hope the kid does well.

I believe you're correct. Can't remember who it was on AFR around 4:15 or so, but he said he's primarily a center. Said he may be able to slide over to guard, but will probably stay at center.

It seems like when Cushenberry signed, many thought he would likely contribute the most at center and have the best chance to get the most playing time there.
