Xavier Atkins went from barely seeing the field at LSU to dominating the SEC with Auburn in 2025. After transferring for more playing time, Atkins exploded with 68 tackles, 10 sacks (second-most in the nation), and the highest linebacker grade in the country. He even earned All-American honors. It’s wild to see how a change of scenery—and a shot at real playing time—can totally transform a player’s career. For LSU fans, it’s bittersweet watching Atkins shine elsewhere. What do you think: should schools do more to keep young talent from slipping away? #Sports #Football #CollegeFootball
