Good morning, everyone. It was a slow news day Wednesday, but we still have stories worth sharing with you. Let's get to it. Baseball With the MLB Draft fast approaching this weekend, one of LSU's key recruits pulled his name from consideration and headed to school. It's a big pickup. Paxton Kling was rated as the No. 104 overall prospect by MLB's draft rankings. Football In the next installment of our season preview lists we've run this summer, Patrick Magee looked at these four stats that shed light on the LSU quarterback battle. By the Numbers With 52 days left until the season opener against Florida State, we highlighted one of the greatest players in LSU history: offensive lineman Kevin Mawae. His illustrious career started at LSU before he turned into a Pro Football Hall of Famer. In case you missed it... As we first reported Tuesday, LSU hired Keli Zinn as the new executive deputy athletic director/COO, which is the No. 2 role in the department under Scott Woodward. We also wrote Tuesday about the verbal commitment from Liberty Magnet running back Kaleb Jackson, the three football players headed to SEC Media Days next week and the contract details for new baseball recruiting coordinator Josh Jordan. As always, thanks for reading! Until next time, Wilson Alexander |
