re: Kardell Thomas - will he ever start?

I feel the same. He worked really hard prior to reporting for camp before his freshman year. He showed up in phenomenal shape, then got hurt. Had to be somewhat demoralizing. Then without having any semblance of a normal off-season, he just didn't get where he needed to get. He's very talented, he just needs to get his mind right and I'm very hopeful he does.

He wasn't really overrated coming out of high school, but he did put on a lot of bad weight his senior year and it showed a bit in his play.

Honestly, I expect him to start next year.

In the last 2 games, LSU had to go deep at the guard position. Thomas wasn't even mentioned as a possibility.

I think the writing is on the wall for him.

I agree. There is no chatter about him being in the OL future plans. It's almost like he has disappeared. Of course, after he posted that BLM crap and took a shot at O that may have something to do with his disappearing act!
