“I transferred to be closer to my family. A lot of personal stuff going on in the world. And I don’t want to be 6 hours away from them. So just trying to get closer.”

ETA: IG Live = Instagram live, for the boomers.

Don’t shoot the messenger. He went on live 5 minutes ago.

Hope it’s just a phase and he decides staying here is best for his future.

I hate to lose him and it sucks he is dealing with personal problems. But with all the issues going on in the country, I'm happy is isn't related to conflict around the team.

Don't believe it. This is first indication of internal problems following a championship. It's called a hang over. Happens to many championship teams. Lots of selfishness comes out post-championship.

I guess “The Family Atmosphere” at LSU is not what it’s cracked up to be. Regardless, he will have to sit out.

Good luck....but your likely making a future nfl mistake...just take a look at all the defensive players LSU has put in the league...this could end up costing you millions...I'd just stay a year or two and then leave early for the nfl...your family will thank you....

That's just stupid. It's a strange time in this nation and these are extremely young men. Some are refusing to play at all. At least he wants to play. Just wants to be closer to his family. I get it.
Bet money the current situation in the US will allow many to transfer without penalty. The NCAA isn't gonna dare turn down a kid if he says he wants to go home because he doesn't feel his family is safe. True or not. Lawyers aren't dumb, most of them
