Just being honest but he wouldn’t have seen the field for us anyway. Roy and Maason Smith will be the best starting DT duo we have had since the Glen Dorsey days. Add in Guillory behind them plus Farrell and maybe Logan coming back for one last year and there was no path to the field. He just was too big and not agile enough for a 4-3. I assume Aranda is running the 3-4 at Baylor so he will start there next year at NT. Good luck to him.

He was going to get passed over. If he never conditions himself physically, you’ll never hear much about him going forward

Meatball was in town this weekend. Showed up on Whiskey and Wine Saturday, wonder if that was for Apu, or other players. Is he from BR area originally? Guess he could be visiting family.

Smart move for him. He’s not a 4-3 DT

Supposed to be, but when have NCAA rules really deterred coaches?

O wants DT that can penetrate and make plays in the backfield/rush the QB. (see ex. Jaqueline Roy). Not guys who spend most of the game trying to pull their jersey down.


and Aranda wants dlinemen eating up blockers...Ika made a good choice

Well the defensive line coach from Baylor was in Baton Rouge the weekend before a defensive lineman transferred to Baylor.

Maybe Meatball was in town visiting his folks but for some reason I doubt it

Wasn't a fit here anymore. Better than going to a school in the SEC. Wish him the best.

He needs to drop 20 pounds to be effective
He could have at least played season out

Ika had announced last week he was announcing this today so I’m just not sure how much active recruiting was going on this weekend

I could be wrong but I think he tweeted “big announcement Monday” on Saturday. Tried to go back and find the tweet but it’s gone now. Again I could be wrong but I think it was saturday

Big deal, the best Saki ever looking in an LSU uniform was the 2019 spring game. He otherwise woefully under achieved as a 4-star player.

Ok. That makes me feel better.


I didn’t even post that meatball was town to accuse him of doing something wrong.

I didn’t even think about us being in a dead period
