In a move not even remotely unexpected, it appears LSU won’t have one member of its 2014 recruiting class at its disposal.
In a tweet, Ross Dellenger of the Baton Rouge Advocate confirmed that, according to head coach Les Miles, “Trey Lealaimatafao will ‘probably not’ play this season after arm injury.”
Last week, Lealaimatafao suffered what was initially feared to be an amputation-level injury to his arm after punching through a weight-room window. Fortunately for Lealaimatafao, the physical damage wasn’t as severe as initially reported and the defensive tackle was released from the hospital two days later.
One day after his release, was Lealaimatafao was arrested for allegedly stealing a bicycle from an on-campus library.
Lealaimatafao was a three-star member of the Tigers’ 2014 recruiting class, rated as the No. 26 defensive tackle in the country and the No. 43 player in the state of Texas at any position.
