The Tigers lose their second player to the NCAA Transfer Portal during the spring…
The NCAA Transfer Portal is open for business and the LSU Tigers are prepared to be active during the spring window.
Brian Kelly and Co. will see both players added to the roster while also preparing for current Tigers to depart the program.
On Wednesday, LSU lost their second player to the portal after redshirt freshman wide receiver Khai Prean revealed his intentions to depart the program.
The decision is not a surprising one for the program with the LSU wide receiver room flaunting an embarrassment of riches.
The Bayou Bengals will have a rotation of five or six players consisting of Kyren Lacy, Chris Hilton, CJ Daniels, Aaron Anderson, Kyle Parker and Zavion Thomas this fall.
For Prean, it was set to be another season with a lack of playing time.
LSU is also prepared to bring in coveted wide receivers Kylan Billiot, Michael Turner and Jelani Watkins through the 2024 recruiting cycle.
Now, Prean departs Baton Rouge, marking the second Tiger to enter the portal during the spring window.
LSU lost EDGE Jaxon Howard to the NCAA Transfer Portal with his name officially being entered on Tuesday morning.
Howard, a former four-star recruit and the No. 1 prospect in Minnesota for the 2023 cycle, will depart Baton Rouge after one season with the program.
The coveted recruit played in five games as a freshman and showed flashes in LSU’s spring game last year with four tackles and a sack. During his lone season down South, he tallied two tackles and one quarterback hurry in 2023.
