LSU not having a wide open offense and only wanting to run the ball being the reason that he was transferring?



In that case it's odd he came here in the first place.

It was definitely his work ethic. He felt with all the skills it would be given to him. Also he didn't want to block on the outside. That's mandatory foR LSU wide outs and a big reason why the NFL loves our wide outs. Beckham was flashy but he blocked his arse off and Juice always did. Pay attention to last year, Sullivan, Gage and Chark were always making big arse blocks for Guice. Also I saw some plays Anderson was driving corners down field. If you explode off the ball during running plays and block, the defense never knows when you're going out for a pass. That's the key to getting open here.



Bingo!

I thought he left because he was getting beat by the guys who will start in 2017?

Yo no se, amigo.

Once Dee Anderson arrived on campus Johnson was no longer the only WR you could just throw up a jump ball to and expect him to out jump the DB and come down with it.

Given that Anderson has 3 inches on him it seemed probable that his role would be in jeopardy moving forward.

Pretty sure he's a few inches taller than him too.

Ppl forget he's the one who recorded the video of the boxing match between fournette and brumfield. After it got out miles took heat for it and took it out on Johnson dropping him on the depth chart and putting him in the dog house. He was also attacked by teammates and had his locker vandalized to which miles did nothing even encouraging it. That's why he left and why his dad said he wasn't going to get the amount of passes he expected.

At the time Les and Cam were still not doing anything to improve the situation despite les saying they were. I think he and Trey Quinn would still be here if they saw Danny Etling playing like he is with Canada as OC

Johnson and Quinn are gone and we wish them well. We need to focus on present and future Tigers under Coaches O, Canada ???? and Aranda.

Can Sullivan be developed into a Mega-Tron for college football?

What other WRs will have an immediate impact, i.e. Guidry, Anderson.

Chalk will be the "Go to" receiver ala Jarvis Landry on 3rd down.

That is more exciting to discuss than guys who are Tiger Bait.

If he is still here, yes he starts as he is very talented and would be a great Slot man in Canada's system

I know this is diff, but I recall a highly touted cb transferring early and like the next year we were starting Mills and collins as freshmen. I just don't understand the not wait your turn. A couple of injuries or failed drug tests and you could be starting.

The only explanation I have for some of these kids is a poor attitude.

People don't understand that concept. I'm amazed at how many kids willfully pick a school based on all the fun stuff besides playing time and opportunity.
