He got passed up by younger guys. DE is in good shape for LSU with or without him



Hopefully he can catch on with another BCS-Caliber school that isn't in the SEC.

If there's one position we're stacked at, it's DE

He started to slack off a little bit from what I've heard just got passed up on the depth chart, don't blame him for wanting to play somewhere else to better his career.

and he's in the regular DE rotation.

Maybe he got passed up this spring and saw the writing on the wall.. that's the only positive outcome of this situation so hopefully it is that.

slacking off, then quitting before spring practice is even over certainly isn't a good recipe for bettering one's career...

He also had an injury plagued career.

Hopefully Bower & Herron are putting in work during Spring drills.

This is probably the reason. I could see Bower beating him out. I wouldn't think Neal could beat him out right now. So that would still put Allen in the 2 deep. But hey, I'm not at practice, so maybe Neal beat him out too.

That doesn't really happen much.

It's much more likely that something else is going on.

Just spoke with Jordan Allen, who is seeking his transfer from #LSU. Has spoken with ULL. Early in the process.
