Kelly: Former Razorbacks 'outstanding additions' at LSU

ATLANTA — Former University of Arkansas defensive backs Greg Brooks Jr. and Joe Foucha are potential starters in the LSU secondary this season as the Tigers had to go heavy into the transfer portal to fill out their roster.

“They have been outstanding additions to our program,” LSU Coach Brian Kelly said of the pair on Monday. “I know many don’t like to see [transfers] happen within the league. I’m not crazy about it either.

“But these are two Louisiana kids that wanted to play at LSU, and they have been great additions. Character. I would say that when we were looking into the transfer portal, we wanted young men that had SEC experience and had ties to the state of Louisiana.
