I heard UF sucks, but that was it.

My grandson is his 2nd cousin. I have been told the same. Not sure which one though. We really don't need him. Bit y'all seem to.

Would be surprised if it’s LSU, but he may have a better relationship than Travis did.

Either way someone will be getting a good running back

If Diggs doesn’t come back, we may only have 4 RBs (and Bradford can’t seem to get playing time). Etienne is a take, imo.

I'm sure you've got some really plugged in sources in South Korea

If we have open spots, everyone is a take. Get them here and let them work, it'll work itself out. They either make it or dont. At least we know Etienne can produce at this level.

Widely reported in UF media that Etienne met with Napier yesterday to discuss his intention to transfer, but with the door open to stay. No idea how it went.

With that being said, the primary factor would be playing time, and Georgia splits carries more than Florida so that transfer wouldn't make much sense.

Well. Both Edwards and Milton are seniors. Branson Robinson might not make it back from his injury. We are left with former walk on Cash Jones, 240 lb back Roderick Robinson and the little used Andrew Paul.

Etienne would fill an immediate need for UGA in 2024.

We do have some freshman running backs coming in, but I am sure we don't want to count on freshman if a back like Etienne is available.

If he wants carries, the Zou is his destination given Shredder got like 95% of the backfield Carrie’s this year.

If Diggs comes back, the running back room is going to be a little bit too full I think. If not, then it would be the perfect fit.

UGA is at 5 scholarship running backs for 2024.
Cash Jones would make it 6.

I don't see us bringing in a transfer unless someone leaves.

Practice is hell for the RB room. I don't think bringing in a transfer would be good for the chemistry either.

It could happen.
But not likely.
And probably not if the 2024 room returns as expected.

He hasn't been good enough to be the every down back. I think he is worried that will hurt his NFL prospects, but he's just not as good as his brother.

He's had some really good moments but also some very head-slapping ones. Hope he finds the best spot to develop if he leaves or ups his game to become that #1 back at UF.

He misses that cajun cooking. I hope he doesn’t leave, but wouldn’t be surprised if he wants to win a championship in college. LSU isn’t the place for that though

LSU may have to choose between Sampson from Tenn and Etienne from Fla
