Why did they not want Lacy but did players like Lostin, Taj Jones, and Peterson? Hell Ford the back LSU took over Lacy had to appeal being ruled academically ineligible this year, and Jones was ineligible.

I don't think we thought they were going to have those issues, except maybe with Loston. shite, seems like everybody in BR knew in fall 2008 that Lacy would have eligibility issues

There's also the fact that LSU's been more noticeably stacked at HB than CB, FS and LB for several years. The elite CB trend started with Peterson; our 2008 secondary was really inexperienced (Chris Hawkins and Jai Eugene, for Christ's sake). We've been solid at HB since the championship run in 07

LSU did want him. Coaches thought he wouldn't qualify so let him go.
