[autotag]Ka’Morreun Pimpton[/autotag] was one of the highly-touted recruits of the 2023 recruiting class and brought a lot of hype with him when he arrived on campus.
Standing at 6-foot-6 and 242 pounds, Pimpton has athleticism that is unmatched by most people his size. In high school, he was the go-to guy on third downs. At LSU, he has had to learn how to do the dirty work of a tight end.
Being a tight end in the SEC is not all about catching passes, you have to be willing to put your body on the line and block for your running backs. It’s like being a fullback or an offensive lineman, the job is not glamorous, the work is vigorous, and you seem to never get credit unless you do something wrong.
Going into Year 2, it seems Pimpton has bought into becoming a blocking tight end as well as a receiving one. He will get a lot of playing time this fall and has had a great fall camp.
TE Ka'Morreun Pimpton has been one of the biggest risers for LSU in fall camp.
“We knew the pass catching was there. It was the other things he’s done a nice job and that’s what put him in a position where we can utilize him.”
