The Tigers remain in the mix for one of the most sought-after grad transfers in college basketball as they made the cut for Wofford forward [autotag]BJ Mack[/autotag], who recently trimmed his list down to 10 teams according to his Instagram account.
The 6-foot-8 native of Charlotte become a full-time starter for the Terriers over the last two seasons, and he averaged 16.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in 2022-23 while shooting 49.2% from the field. He entered the transfer portal after the season, and he’s received quite a bit of attention since.
Alongside LSU, Mack included Florida, Arkansas, Iowa, Butler, Xavier, Mississippi State, Vanderbilt, Michigan and South Carolina among his finalists.

LSU is competing with a number of good programs here, but this team could really use the help after a disappointing Year 1 campaign from coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag], who went just 2-16 in SEC play and lost 14 straight games from December to February.
