He's foregoing his final year of eligibility. Unclear if he'll play in the bowl game.

Please dont make up lies. He coasted quite a bit, and we have game film to prove it.

He had his one blow out game a year agaisnt Arkansas, which was great for reminiscing, but overall a very below average season and career at LSU.

I just wish they would have stuck him at safety a few years ago.

he definitely coasted at time and it took us a while to figure out how to use him, but i’d still say he was above average

He completely mailed it in against Texas A&M, but he had a couple good games after that.

Not complaining. Was fun to watch here and there. A lot of wasted potential though

This is false. Perkins did historic things faster, younger, and more efficiently than nearly every elite LSU linebacker before him. That’s why we’ve had such high expectations. Later in his career he became more of a havoc player due to scheme and the injury.

In his last 5 games he had 4 turnovers.

3 interceptions and a forced fumble.

His career arc reminds me a lot of Arden Key. We never saw the full potential from both

Perk will have a respectable NFL career

My money will be him taking it to another level in the NFL, similar to what Danielle Hunter did at Minnesota. Certainly not as a full-time pass rusher, but an ATH LB/S hybrid that makes plays.

I'm guessing his testing numbers (40, agility drills, etc) will be impressive. It will be interesting to see how his future NFL team employs him.

Good luck HP7!
