Do you know his story? I haven't heard of he guy.

Hearing that he wants to play in a 3-4 instead of a 4-3.

Saw this about the player on the rant

ka has been a beast here, he is probably upset at lack of playing time, only got 13 snaps against South Carolina this past weekend despite making back to back plays like this:
LINK (2 plays back to back, watch them both

He is in good shape for a guy transitioning from a 3-4 NT to 4-3 NT.

He is the 2nd highest graded DLineman on our team per PFF
(highest graded interior Dlineman). He has a 73.9 PFF grade so far this season, compare that to Bama's starting NT DJ Dale who has a 55.3.

And does the LSU D coach Play into this?

And does the LSU D coach Play into this?

Absolutely. Ika isn't getting enough playing time in the new 4 man front (he's better in a 3 man front at NT), even though he's their best interior DL.

From the outside Ika and Sopsher situations appear different to me. I thought Ika was playing well (insofar as anyone on that d is playing well). Everything I’ve heard about Sopsher is he was out of shape and did not respond well to the conditioning and had a poop attitude in general
