Football Players Opt to Return for Senior Season

BATON ROUGE – LSU coach Les Miles along with a handful of the Tiger juniors that have opted to return to school for another year met with members of the media on Friday afternoon to discuss their decision.

Miles was joined at the press conference on Friday by cornerback Tre'Davious White, linebacker Kendell Beckwith, defensive end Lewis Neal, defensive tackle Christian LaCouture and center Ethan Pocic. The return of these five players along with the remaining juniors will give the Tigers 19 scholarship seniors for the 2016 season, the most for LSU since Miles’ first year in 2005 when they had 19 seniors on the squad.
