LSU is down to 77 scholarship football players after freshman tight end Hanner Shipley left the team and transferred to FCS Abilene Christian. Shipley was an early-enrollee. The Tigers have five scholarship tight ends -- senior Dillon Gordon, junior Colin Jeter, junior DeSean Smith, redshirt freshman Jacory Washington, true freshman Foster Moreau.
There will certainly be some walk-ons, who will receive scholarships. Junior kicker Colby Delahoussaye was placed on scholarship last fall. He remains on scholarship. Junior kicker Trent Domingue is expected to be put on scholarship this fall.
Here is the breakdown of scholarship players by class.
