That stinks, I know he wasn't going to play much, but hopefully he can go to LSU-E and get a bunch of playing time and transfer back in as a much more experienced player.

That really does stink. He has the sweetest and smoothest shot I've seen in ages. I think he would have been a huge advantage in the 3-pt shooting.

Is that Eric Moutons son from STM?

He would have spent another year running the scout team at UL. Now he will actually get true playing time. Hopefully that lets him develop as a player where he can help some if he comes back as a walkon. Best move for all involved.

I agree, best for all...by no means saying there isn’t a future for him...but based on his limited minutes played last year, he has a long way to go to be ready to contribute meaningful minutes to a quality D1 program...I hope to see him back in Vermillion & White when ready for all parties

Did he play enough minutes to lose his red shirt? If not he can play a year in JUCO and preform as a sophomore in 20/21 in division I.

How good is the program at lsue? I know it is just getting started but how good is the competition?

I believe if you play one minute you lose your redshirt in basketball unless injury is involved. It is not like football so he has likely lost his redshirt opportunity.
