The 2020 college football season was a tough one for LSU. After going 15-0 and winning the national championship in 2019, the Tigers finished 2020 with a disappointing 5-5 record.
However, the Tigers did win their final two games of the season with an undermanned squad led by true freshman passer Max Johnson.
After the season, LSU signed the No. 4 recruiting class in the country during the early signing period and isn’t quite done yet.
More good news arrived on Friday night when starting right guard Chasen Hines took to his Twitter account to say he would be back in 2021.
He is the second member of LSU’s starting offensive line to say he would return next season, joining center Liam Shanahan.
LSU’s remaining three starters on the offensive line are eligible to enter the NFL draft but have yet to make public declarations.
The offensive line struggled early in 2020, but the group became more consistent late in the season as it got healthier.
The 6-foot-3, 349-pound Hines played in nine of LSU’s 10 games in 2020.
