At this point LJD has made his decision. I support his right to make this decision and think it is the best decision for him. At this point he is no longer a member of the Tiger football team. So, Let's move on from LJD. Tired of hearing about a non issue.

Because if he doesn’t play in more than 4 games he can redshirt and save a year of eligibility. With the ncaa waiver for last year that’ll give him 2 years of playing left if he chooses.

Isn’t he a TE. Is he transferring too? ??

He could transfer, play two more seasons and get a Masters

degree. Not a bad deal ! I hope he does well.

He's preserving his eligibility, looks like. The new NCAA rule allows you to take a redshirt after having appeared in no more than four games (1/3rd is the rule) of a given regular season. Kelly Bryant did that when he lost his job to Trevor, and transferred to Mizzou for his senior season.

Honestly, hard to blame Lyn-J. He's in a rough situation, losing his position as an upperclassman because he's frankly been outrecruited, but he probably does have an outside shot at the League if he can put together a good season of film somewhere much as Chez Mellusi is now doing for Wisconsin. He does have some talent. I'd advise my own son - who also is a college player - to probably do the same thing in his shoes.

Mind, Lyn-J is likely going to have the same issues elsewhere - especially in regards to dancing, turning his shoulders, and losing big yards behind the LoS - and then of course whatever his attitude thing is since it seems he's been in the coaches' doghouse more than a fair bit - but you do understand why he's doing it. It's a roster logjam situation, and he's exercising his option...and I can absolutely promise you it's a massively tough time for him. (This is hard on players who do it, leaving their team and teammates is never fun, particularly like this.) And sometimes it's the best thing for everybody. I suspect that is so in this case.

No point in my dumping on him, so I won't. I hope it works out for him at his next stop.

Some wise words here. I wish the best for him and glad to hear he plans to graduate this Dec.
