April 8: Who has stood out at LSU spring practice? We break it down here.

from LSU Sports Insider · host The Advocate

Beat writer Wilson Alexander joins sports editor Perryn Keys to discuss the latest developments from LSU's spring football practice, where Brian Kelly and the Tigers. The spring game is at 1 p.m. Saturday. Wilson begins with the emergence of Kyren Lacy, who has been LSU's best offensive player, and why he's been so good this spring. We also discuss changes to the ground game and why Brian Kelly and Joe Sloan intend to take advantage of their experienced offensive line. From there, we discuss LSU's defensive ends, including Bradyn Swinson working with the first team and Paris Shand's commitment to new mental and nutritional programs.  Then it's on to the position of most concern — defensive tackle. Wilson tells us why Jacobian Guillory has been "ouststanding" against the run, how converted guard Kimo Makane'ole made it to the first team and what's happening with Jalen Lee and junior-college transfer Shone Washington. We also take a look at the secondary, where true freshman PJ Woodland has excelled at a cornerback position that is quite unsettled, and where Major Burns is settling into Blake Baker's new STAR position. Finally, we discuss Harold Perkins' role on the defense — whether it will change, and whether those changes will work. Subscribe to our YouTube channel!
