With fall camp underway, LSU has multiple ongoing position battles, the most important being the offensive line unit. Redshirt sophomore left tackle Tyree Adams will have the unenviable task of replacing fourth overall NFL draft pick Will Campbell, but head coach Brian Kelly is confident in the former four-star.
The Tigers are waiting on the commitment announcement of three-star defensive lineman Darryus McKinley, the younger brother of current Tiger Dominick McKinley. The Acadiana High product will decide between LSU, Florida, Texas and Tennessee at 1:00 this afternoon.
The Bulldogs began fall camp in head coach Sonny Cumbie’s fourth season in Ruston yesterday. Louisiana Tech is led by redshirt sophomore quarterback Evan Bullock. With the departure of top receivers Tru Edwards and Jimmy Holiday, Bullock will rely on junior tight end Eli Finley. Finley was an All-CUSA honorable mention last season, and head coach Sonny Cumbie has high expectations in year three.
Louisiana Tech Hall of Famer and former NFL quarterback Luke McCown will be the color analyst for the Bulldogs’ two ESPN+ broadcast games this fall. He’ll join play-by-play voice Malcolm Butler for Tech’s first two home games, August 30 versus Southeastern and September 13 against New Mexico State.
The Saints are signing guard Shane Lemieux. The 27-year-old started four games for the injury-riddled Saints last season.
