Defensive end Justin Thomas has left the LSU football team, coach Ed Orgeron said Tuesday. Thomas, a junior, entered preseason camp as a possible starter in LSU's new 4-3 defense. Orgeron did not say why Thomas left the team. "Justin Thomas will not be with us," Orgeron said. "He left the team, and we wish him the best." Without Thomas, Orgeron said former outside linebackers Andre Anthony and Travez Moore are starting at defensive end. LSU has options at the position this season with junior college transfer Ali Gaye, freshman Phillip Webb, freshman BJ Ojulari and junior TK McLendon in the mix for playing time. "At defensive line, we have a lot of depth," Orgeron said. "We can rotate those guys." - Baton Rouge Advocate

08/18/20 - *Cordale Flott, Jr/2022, LSU, 6-1, 178 (DS#47 CB) + More +

Coach Ed Orgeron made a point Tuesday to mention sophomore defensive back Cordale Flott. As an LSU assistant communications director opened Orgeron's virtual press conference to questions at the end of an opening statement, Orgeron interrupted. He had forgotten Flott's name while listing LSU's starting cornerbacks. "Excuse me," Orgeron said. "Excuse me. One guy I forgot to mention is starting at cornerback is Cordale Flott." With that, Orgeron began answering questions about preseason practice. But Orgeron made sure Flott didn't go overlooked. Flott has pushed for playing time throughout the offseason, and he will likely start at either cornerback or nickel this fall. "Cordale has had a tremendous camp and a tremendous summer," Orgeron said. Flott played in 14 games his freshman year. He started once, when nickel Kary Vincent Jr. played sparingly against Ole Miss because of an injury. Flott finished his first season with 15 tackles and four passes defended. - Baton Rouge Advocate

08/18/20 - Austin Deculus, rSr/2022, LSU, 6-5, 322 (DS#34 OT) + More +

LSU starting right tackle Austin Deculus did not practice when preseason camp began Monday, and coach Ed Orgeron said the third-year starter is going to be out for "a little bit." Orgeron told WNXX-FM, 104.5 ESPN's "Off the Bench" that true freshman Marcus Dumervil and redshirt freshman Charles Turner are practicing at the position in place of Deculus. Orgeron later told reporters in a news conference that sophomore Cameron Wire was also moved to right tackle to help with depth. "Those guys, they're doing good," Orgeron said Tuesday morning. "Young guys that are doing well, filling in. Again, Austin's going to be our starter. But those guys gotta be able to provide depth in the rotation. So this is good for us." Deculus is the only returning starter on the offensive line from LSU's national championship season. He started in 13 games, missing Ole Miss and Arkansas due to an injury, and he started in 11 games as a sophomore in 2018. The 6-foot-6, 311-pound Wire played in six games in 2019, and the East Ascension High graduate's experience exceeds the others backing up Deculus. - Baton Rouge Advocate

The Southeastern Conference has established September 26 as the new kickoff for its 2020 football season to allow its universities to focus on the healthy return of their campus communities and the gradual re-introduction of athletics, as the 14 members of the SEC continue to monitor developments related to COVID-19, SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey announced Thursday. The 2020 SEC football season will be comprised of a 10-game Conference-only schedule and the SEC Football Championship Game will be played December 19 at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, rescheduled from the original date of December 5. The schedule will include one mid-season open date for each school and an open date on December 12 for all schools.

"This new plan for a football schedule is consistent with the educational goals of our universities to allow for the safe and orderly return to campus of their student populations and to provide a healthy learning environment during these unique circumstances presented by the COVID-19 virus," Sankey said. "This new schedule supports the safety measures that are being taken by each of our institutions to ensure the health of our campus communities." This action was taken following extensive discussions and thorough deliberation among the SEC's Presidents and Chancellors, Athletics Directors, Conference Office staff, and medical advisors, led by the SEC's Return to Activity and Medical Guidance Task Force. - SEC Football
