A Look at the Second day of LSU Football Spring Practice

A quick over view of LSU Football Spring Practice DAY 2.

Glen Guilbeau has a nice article on Jarrett Lee for the Gannett papers at LSU'S OTHER OPTION: Redshirt freshman quarterback could play into Tigers' plans We shall see if he produces some stuff on how Hatch is doing who is also going for that position.

From the Alexandria Town Talk the media is already rumbling at Tompkins: Perrilloux issue not going away. The Advocate has Eugene ready for challenge which is about our redshirt sophomore cornerback.

The Picayune has am article Line could be strong suit of LSU's offense It talks about the spirited competition between Barksdale and Jarvis Jones for right tackle .Other players are mentioned

I am noticing that James Varney from the Picayune is doing a lot of good updates during the day on the Picayune sports blog. He has Missing faces front and back, The numbers game, and this amusing post at Target punting which I post in full:

A clutch of kickers moved on to one of the practice fields Saturday and its clear LSU is auditioning a handful of players for the punting job left open by the departure of Patrick Fisher.
Under the watchful eye of All-SEC placekicker Colt David, four punters booted the ball back and forth. One of them on the far side of the field was not wearing a numbered jersey and could not be identified but was presumably sophomore Josh Jasper. The other three were walkon freshman Drew Alleman, transfer senior Brady Dalfrey, sophomore Andrew Crutchfield.

But not all the work was on hang time and coffin corners. At one point a hawk, looking suspiciously like a war eagle, cruised over the field. Dalfrey spotted the impressive bird and took careful aim, wafting up a wobbly spiral like a surface to air missile. The ball narrowly missed the hawk and, afterward, the kickers all looked at each other as if maybe the attempt had been ill-advised.

"I'm telling you," Dalfrey said after a moment, ""that thing was no LSU fan."


The Tigers do not practice today They return to Spring Practice tomorrow at 4 pm
