The Tigers took the practice field for the first day of fall camp today. LSU’s loudest supporter this offseason may have been Tigers head coach Brian Kelly. He says he has a deep roster with winning traits.
Kelly announced five-star freshman offensive lineman Solomon Thomas will miss a month after breaking his fifth metatarsal in his foot. The 335-pound freshman was a top interior offensive lineman in the class of 2025 and is in line to compete in an O-line with four new starters. His return will now likely be after the season kicks off.
Former LSU slugger Tommy White was promoted from the Athletics’ High-A affiliate Lansing Lugnuts to the Double-A Midland RockHounds. White hit .260 with 36 RBI in 66 games with the Lugnuts
LSU will kick off the season at Clemson August 30. Brian Kelly hasn’t shied away from the big game, but he says breaking his week one losing streak will take more than words.
Saints defensive players have seemingly bought into coordinator Brandon Staley’s new scheme. Defensive tackle Khalen Saunders says it’s built to create one-on-ones, which the Black and Gold should win every time.
Cut 21 (16) “…itself well.”
Tight end Juwan Johnson left practice with an injury today. Head coach Kellen Moore said he’d have an update tomorrow, but as of now, nothing was overly concerning.
