A couple of LSU linemen are drawing attention as the season nears.
The executive director of the Senior Bowl, Jim Nagy, offered high praise for [autotag]Charles Turner[/autotag] and [autotag]Miles Frazier[/autotag] in a Tweet earlier this week.
Nagy wrote center Turner “jumps off the tape with his twitch and excellent flexibility.”
He went on to highlight Turner’s quick feet and ability to recover.
On Frazier, Nagy said he fits the big gap-scheme prototype a team could target on day three.
Breakout freshmen like [autotag]Will Campbell[/autotag] and [autotag]Emery Jones[/autotag] received most of the discussion on LSU’s OL last year, sometimes leaving the work of Turner and Frazier unnoticed. But LSU had a lot of success staying ahead of the chains last year in large part due to the inside run game.
Baton Rouge ➡️ Mobile @seniorbowl OL pipeline that has included Day 2 picks like Lewis, Cushenberry, & Ingram could continue this year with current OC Charles Turner III.

Turner missed some of spring practice and is in a competition with [autotag]Marlon Martinez[/autotag] for the starting job, but with what Turner showed in 2022, he’s the favorite to win it.
Frazier was the only LSU lineman to play in every game last year. He has two more years of eligibility left.
