He'll get a lot of balls thrown his way there and get a chance to shine and possibly a shot at the NFL. Good move for him, best of luck. I do wish we would have run an offense that would have worked out better for him here because I think he could have been a very good player at LSu.

Great student athlete!
I wish him well and will never forget his beastly TD run versus Wisconsin!

I will always pull for John Diarse. The class he has shown and the respect he has given to the school we care about will always be remembered. Diarse is kind of the anti Landon Collins.

except for that time he actively cheered for Bama on Twitter on 1/9/12...

but yeah, I don't fault him for transferring and hope him all the success

unless of course LSU plays TCU

Good luck to Diarse! He will be joining his former Neville Tiger teammate, Kavontae Turpin, on the TCU roster.

We will miss his physicality in blocking, and his toughness. He will do really well at TCU. Heck, I kinda root for the Horn Frogs, so I'll still have him on one of my teams. Good luck!

Good for him. I always loved his ability to break tackles after he caught the football. Wish he would have been able to catch more passes here, but it's just not possible with our limited passing game. I hope he shines and makes it to the national championship game next season, and loses to LSU.

What's the word on Anthony Jennings? No way he stays after not getting to play, right?

No, pretty good choice if they are willing to have him. Pretty much entirely 4 or 5 WR sets. He'll also be in space a lot where his ability to break tackles will shine.


I get the impression that this a life choice as well. His old lady is goes there. He has already finished his undergrad and is looking at grad school there.

I wish more player took advantage of their situation like that.

He hit his ceiling at LSU academically and athletically. He finished school and there is so much talent around him and based on Fournette getting the ball a lot next year his touches will not increase and will likely decrease.

It's always better to get a graduate degree from a better academic school than your undergraduate degree. He completed everything he committed to at LSU.

Anyone who faults a kid for this does not see there is nothing here for Diarse but an upside. Cannot fault a kid for that and he completed his commitment at LSU.

Good luck to him

Was looking at his years on the team... Did he graduate with his undergrad in 3 years?? If so,

He'll probably be all-world over there and once again prove that we dont know how to utilize our WRs properly.
