LSU's Corey Kiner heads home to Cincinnati; Jacob Berry's UL connection

Good morning, everyone.

With less than a week to go before its spring "game," the LSU football team lost a key member of the Tigers' backfield Monday morning.

Stating a desire to "start a new chapter" in his life, sophomore running Corey Kiner announced he was entering the transfer portal.

Before the end of the day, we learned that Kiner, who had received some reps with the No. 1 offense in spring drills, was heading home to play for the University of Cincinnati.

We also have some other items of interest from the holiday weekend:

Football

Beat writer Wilson Alexander had a nice profile on new cornerbacks coach Robert Steeples and his swift rise from coaching high school ball to working at a Power 5 school.

And, columnist Scott Rabalais has a piece on Tigers coach Brian Kelly on his take on the hot-button topics in college football — the NIL and the transfer portal.

Baseball

Beat writer Leah Vann takes a look at an interesting connection between transfer Jacob Berry, who had never been to Louisiana before joining the LSU program, and Tuesday night's opponent — UL.

Also, here’s how to watch and listen to the Tigers' midweek game with the Ragin' Cajuns on Tuesday night.

As expected, LSU took a dip in the polls after losing all three games over the weekend to Arkansas in Fayetteville.

Golf

In case you missed it while hunting for Easter eggs on Sunday, the LSU women's golf team won its first SEC championship since 1992 with a rout of Florida.

Thank you for reading,

The LSU beat team (Sheldon Mickles, Scott Rabalais, Wilson Alexander and Leah Vann)
