Dae’Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris have committed to LSU after brief stints with NFL teams. Wright was waived by the Cleveland Browns, while Harris was also waived after not practicing due to injury with the Saints. Both players gained a fifth year of eligibility after recent NCAA rulings. However, the SEC has implemented a new rule imposing severe penalties on schools for playing athletes who had entered professional contracts, complicating their potential participation. A hearing regarding their eligibility is scheduled for August 31.
