Texas, Oklahoma and Ole Miss are the early favorites with A&M also being a possible landing spot. He's battled a leg issue this season. The last time LSU's training staff was not willing to invest the needed rehabilitation time on an injured running back he found success at a conference rival. When healthy he's a weapon both carrying the ball as well as catching it out of the backfield. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

Yeah, but in our defense, that RB coach couldn't manage a running back rotation any better than he could manage his own dick, because he was also the source of a former AD member's sexual harassment lawsuit.

Where'd that RB coach end up, I wonder?

Ole Miss feeding the family from LSU’s trash can

Kewan Lacy and Harlem Berry in the same backfield.

Damn.

Out of Durham and Berry, I'm glad Berry is staying at LSU instead of entering the portal. I wish Caden nothing but the best and pray he succeeds wherever he ends up. If it's OM, the only bad game I hope he has is against LSU.

Now that is very interesting.

May be a case for tampering there.

I'm with OP, I'm interested to see where this goes.

Dude had fallen to second string, though his 5 carries for 0 yards last game will be missed.

We are in the playoffs with a D2 QB amd 3rd string mizzou RB, "trash can" is subjective

I'm hoping he comes home and gets a second chance at OU, I mean we do such a good job keeping players off the IR....

Durham was who I wanted out. Keeping Berry is much more important. And we need to bring in a vet RB in the portal who has proven production.

Hope Durham has more success at his next stop, but I wont be shedding tears over a guy who averaged 2 yards a carry against 2 different CUSA teams.

Durham won't be shedding any either. Running behind the worst line in the SEC this season almost ended his career. He has the potential to be a Dalvin Cook type player once healthy again and playing behind an Oline that has a competent coach.

Durham's lack of production had more to do with Wilson than it did the OL, which was also admittedly bad. Wilson squandered RB talent at an unbelievable level.

There is just no way to justify piss poor production against CUSA, the worst conference in FBS. If you cant create on your own against glorified HS ball, you are no Dalvin Cook.

DeMarco Murry had his choice of Caden Duraham and Taylor Tatum and took Tatum who btw is also in the portal.
