Says everyone on the team is dealing with Kyren Lacy's death differently. They're leaning on their professional counseling department to help his players get through the situation.
Calls Kyren a bright star with an incredible personality. Will remember him as someone who loved LSU and was a great guy. "When you think of Kyren, you're gonna smile."
Wouldn't be surprised if the roster is exactly the same going into May. Thinks there's a good chance nobody leaves and nobody comes in. Loves where the roster is at right now.
Thinks Nic Anderson has really ramped up the last few practices. He's still getting healthier by the day.
Thought the spring game gave them a good evaluation of pretty much every position. Pointed out the defensive ends and said they clearly have a presence there.
Says the young guys have really picked up how to go about their day and compete at practice. Pointed out DJ Pickett and Solomon Thomas. Thinks they'll be so far ahead of the incoming summer freshmen in fall camp.
Colin Hurley was back today, and thought it was awesome to have him back. Says he looked great physically and he did some 1-on-1 work. Called it a blessing to get him back.
Says the summer is where you build accountability. Without being on the field with them, it's up to the guys to come in, put their head down and get to work in the weight room, etc. "The standards for winning a championship are sown in June and July."
Wants to see young guys like Harlem Berry add some more weight this summer as well.
Thinks they have five or six guys who could start at LG, C and RG. They just need to find out the best combination.
