LSU's Darrin Strey prepares for future in No. 69 jersey
Summary

With 69 days until kickoff against the Clemson Tigers, LSU Tigers highlight redshirt freshman Darrin Strey as the next player to wear the No. 69 jersey. Standing 6-foot-7 and weighing 314 pounds, Strey has four years of eligibility remaining and aims to strengthen the offensive line. He appeared in three games for the Kentucky Wildcats last season, primarily at right tackle. LSU's new offensive line coach Eric Wolford, who recruited Strey to Kentucky, sees potential in him to develop into a reliable player against tough SEC defenses. LSU's football season is set to begin soon as preparations continue.
