He want to stay but the db coach told him that if he moved back to nickel he would get 0 playing time no rep . The actually move someone else to Nickel with Brooks and Ryan too.

If gardner plays safety lsu is absolutely screwed at corner.

I think he will play corner and possibly be the best one on the team.

He looks like a LB, I don’t think he’s going to play outside chalk

He is huge. He looked good at ull.

All I'm saying is lsu is thin at corner(including him)

What coach moved him?

I understand why he is leaving. He isn't an outside corner. He is a box/nickel all day. He would never see the field at corner.

I'm not complaining about anything. But TRANT was ready to bash a young man that's really trying to fulfill his dreams. I'm just telling the true story of what happened. He will prove everyone wrong and he not feeling sorry himself. Just was making a statement on here that there is two side to every story. He loved LSU and didn't want to leave. Exactly my point this whole time its just a unfortunate situation.

They is Bk staff . Coach Cook if names need to said. He was never given a rep at Nickel nor at corner when they move him. He told him had who they wanted. I think once they got Greg it changed the nickel depth with Sage and they move any guy to nickel name Derrick too.

Exactly ..that's exactly what he said. Cooks moved him. And when he got to the corner position he was buried in depth chart worst than he was nickel

Not as if Kelly signed nothing but 4 and .5 star transfers and recruits like AL snd AtM. Kid looked like he was a player.

Seems it will be greg and sage fighting it out. He was probably third at nickel.

Did they move derrick davis jr to nickel? I hope not.

Where do you think he is going to go? He should look into tulane.

That kid had heart, tackled hard, and just wanted a fair shake.

Yes they did and he took Pig out the mix for the 3rd nickel spot. That's exactly what happened. That who they said they wanted there and push him off to corner.

Nothing is permanent until it is. This is a time to experiment.

I feel like they have too many bodies at safety now.

Derrick davis jr is not a nickel in my eyes at all.

I will give you the full story . Pig left Nicholls where he was on a full scholarship freshman all American etc. He was told be the previous staff walk on because no more scholarship were available when he decided to transfer there back in May of 2021. His parents paid for school this year 45k and hoping he can earn his scholarship like he was told. Then during Hurricane Ida his parents lost their business and home. He plays in the bowl game and does great. Now the new staff comes in they pick up transfer in his position and they tell him . We have no reps for you at Nickel we moving you to cornerback. A position he has never played at the bottom of depth chart still with no fair opportunity to earn a scholarship to pay for school next year. So what you want him to do there is no option for him and no opportunity to earn anything.


Yeah all of this sucks. New staff comes in and has a different plan or idea as to what you can contribute. On the flip side, players want to be able to just transfer , opt out or whatever when then want to the detriment of the teams success. But also wants the staff to be loyal to them and follow through on promises. That isn’t how this works anymore. Just like so many defend players for doing what is best for them. The coaches are doing what is best in the interests of LSU football.
