TIGER RAG NEWS SERVICES
If LSU football coach Lane Kiffin thinks you can play, it doesn’t matter where you used to play.
Such is the case with redshirt junior transfer wide receiver Tre Brown III of Old Dominion in Norfolk, Virginia, via Hutchinson Community College in Hutchinson, Kansas.
Brown (6-foot-2, 190 pounds) caught 38 passes for 762 yards for Old Dominion in the Sun Belt Conference last season and signed with the Tigers as the No. 122 portal prospect in the nation and No. 29 wide receiver. After displaying excellent ability at spring practice, he is being called the sleeper of Kiffin’s portal class.
