Unexpected role for LSU defensive back Terrence Alexander

Following the conclusion of spring practice, LSU coach Ed Orgeron felt a need of bringing in another cornerback.

Greedy Williams, an All-Southeastern Conference player in 2017, had one side of the field locked down. But, the Tigers lost both Donte Jackson and Kevin Toliver to the NFL. Kristian Fulton was just halfway through a two-year suspension from the NCAA.

The only other scholarship cornerbacks were Kary Vincent, Jontre Kirklin and Mannie Netherly.
