Congrats to Skylar. You can see his teammates are happy for him too. He’ll have a long career. Nobody can possibly not like the guy.

Maybe I don't listen to enough LSU Sports Radio, but does that announcer sound a little like Chris Blair to anyone else? Also, congrats to Skylar. He was what all student-athletes should hope to become. Very smart, got a great degree and also a great athlete that is getting his shot at the highest level of his sport. Anyone who isn't a star in their sport who is a surefire pro should aspire to be like Skylar.
