I don't believe this has been announced publicly yet, but I received several texts this evening about an interesting and potential transfer portal option currently on another team that would certainly draw the interest of LSU.

That player is Trevor Etienne of Florida. Early on Wednesday the conversation was that he was still up in the air and the latest I've heard this evening is he's planning to enter the transfer portal.

Could LSU be a landing spot?

The first two schools thrown around in the conversations were LSU and Georgia, but it doesn't line up with his reasoning for wanting to leave.

From what I'm told, he doesn't want to be in a time share and wants to be a feature back. I think it's unlikely he would get that at either LSU or UGA. So I'm not sure how realistic of an option LSU would be if he truly wants to be a feature back. But Louisiana is home, so you never know.

The other thing to consider is, will LSU even look to the portal for an RB? It was a very crowded room this season and there are going to be multiple departures with graduations and Goodwin transferring out. Then obviously theres talk that Logan Diggs will put out feelers to the NFL and what he decides could factor into that. But realistically these coaches can't promise him that he'll be a feature back with the talent they have in that room and the talent they have coming in.

Playere can't officially enter until Dec.4 and he hasn't announced publicly to my knowledge his intent to enter. A lot could happen between now and then but I wouldn't be surprised if we hear something from him very soon.
