Kids used to wait years for their chance to start at a big time program.

Now they can't even wait a few weeks.

He probably saw the writing on the wall as far as getting PT goes. It is odd that he didn't wait until after the season was over, but he might have just wanted to move onto the next chapter of his life since LSU wasn't in his future plans.

Good luck to him. It's his life.

It’s interesting how the culture has shifted to “if I don’t play immediately, I’m transferring”

Fully expect that the transfer portal rules to be modified so that players can’t jump in and out of it on a whim.

We stuck with him after a heart issue and he leaves before his first season is over? This guy has no integrity.

He had to have know he would have to wait a bit for PT right?

He had guys like Chaisson, Phillips, Queen, Divinity, Clark, Anthony, Baskersville, etc. all ahead of him

What the hell lol. The guy was redshirting and would be a redshirt Freshman with 4 years to play next year. Why even come in the first place if you were just gonna leave after half a season.

but it will help another player on the team get a scholarship because now they are under the 85 limit


This is possible, but teams usually struggle with getting under the limit and have to process a few to make room for twenty-five new ones. So, it may be more likely that it just means one less player will have to go who doesn't want to. And maybe he was processed.

That was a strange take from the beginning


No it wasn't, he was a beast on the field. Dominated the MS-AL all star game.

Dont think we know the full story here, he hasn't played 1 game on D despite the redshirt rule. He had a medical condition coming in so you never know..

There's studs ahead of him and studs coming in behind him. It's like we never knew him.

Wow. Way to stick it out and compete!




Are we going to say this about everyone that transfers without knowing the facts?

And we sure are ok with it happening to other teams when determining if we can pick them up.
