08/10/22 - *BJ Ojulari, Jr/2023, LSU, 6-2, 248 (DS#4 OLB) + More +

When asked this week whether or not he would continue the No. 18 jersey tradition, Brian Kelly teased an announcement. "We're going to award it to a deserving player," Kelly said. "We're just not going to do that today. But it's coming. Stay tuned." The reveal came Saturday after practice. LSU gave the number, which goes to a high-character leader on the team, to junior edge rusher BJ Ojulari. Ojulari, a preseason All-Southeastern Conference selection, represented the LSU at SEC media days and is expected to have a productive season.

Last year, Ojulari made 55 tackles and 11½ tackles for loss while leading the team with seven sacks. He'll play more out of a two-point stance in new defensive coordinator Matt House's scheme, but he will still primarily rush the passer. "I appreciate all y'all," Ojulari said after receiving the jersey. "All my teammates, training staff, coaches, media personnel. Being able to wear 18 and leave my legacy at LSU is the biggest for me this season." - Baton Rouge Advocate

08/10/22 - *Kayshon Boutte, Jr/2023, LSU, 5-11, 195 (DS#15 WR) + More +

Kayshon Boutte thought about leaving LSU. He really did. When rumors floated around about the possibility in December, the star wide receiver was wondering if he should transfer to another school. It never reached the point where Boutte entered the transfer portal, but consider the circumstances. Everything around him was changing while he recovered from the first major injury of his career. Different coaches. Different teammates. Different staff members. The people who convinced him to pick LSU in the first place were gone. Should he leave, too? "Coming out of high school, I felt like the people who recruited me was the people who had the most trust and belief in me," Boutte said. "I felt like being under a new staff, it was all kind of weird playing for people I never really met. I didn't really know any of them personally. I felt like I didn't fit."

Boutte wanted to know the people around him, and he barely recognized any of the faces in the building. Coming off a season-ending ankle injury in October, his professional future hinged on this junior season. He needed to trust the coaches responsible for developing him. "I thought about it," Boutte said. "I really did. There was a lot going on." Ultimately, Boutte stayed. He got more comfortable with head coach Brian Kelly. He decided he should "overcome this process." And it helped that local personal injury attorney Gordon McKernan signed him to a name, image and likeness deal. On Dec. 29, 2021, Boutte posted on Twitter: "Ignore the rumors...I'm locked in." - Baton Rouge Advocate

08/02/22 - Sevyn Banks, rSr/2023, LSU, 6-1, 202 (DS#54 CB) + More +

At 6-foot-1 and 200 pounds, Banks was a two-year starter at Ohio State, starting in eight games and recording eight pass breakups as a junior. He was a third-team preseason All-American in 2021 and made the Thorpe Award and Bronko Nagurski Trophy preseason watch lists. But he arrives at LSU after dealing with injuries. A knee injury hampered him during the preseason and made him miss the first two games in 2021. He sat out the final three contests because of a hip injury. Given the state of LSU's depth chart at cornerback, keeping Banks healthy will be important. Coach Brian Kelly is confident that will be the case. "We got a positive medical report from our doctors," Kelly told reporters in April. - Lafayette Daily Advertiser

LSU was picked to finish fifth in the Southeastern Conference Western Division this season in a vote by media members who covered SEC media days. The voters predicted Alabama would win the division, and the Crimson Tide received an overwhelming 158 votes to capture another conference title. Georgia, the defending national champions, got 18 votes to win the league. South Carolina (3), Vanderbilt (1) and Texas A&M (1) also received championship votes.

The media has only predicted the correct conference champion nine times since 1992, including the last two seasons. Alabama dominated voting in the SEC West. The Crimson Tide were followed in order by Texas A&M, Arkansas, Ole Miss, LSU, Mississippi State and Auburn. Texas A&M (3) and Arkansas (1) also received votes to win the division. LSU, which has an 11-12 record over the past two years, finished last in the SEC West in 2021. The team will play its first game under new head coach Brian Kelly on Sept. 4 against Florida State. - Baton Rouge Advocate
