Because of his fairly slender frame and history of playing other positions in high school, Brooks could be a prospect to change positions whenever and wherever his profession resumes..

Among the three five-star potential customers who signed with LSU in the Class of 2019 has actually entered his name in the transfer portal. Sophomore linebacker Marcel Brooks had a conversation with the Tigers training personnel on Friday early morning before deciding to enter the portal, Geaux247 is reporting.
Brooks got to LSU as one of the most-celebrated gamers in a 2019 recruiting class that was ranked 5th nationally. The Fort Worth, Texas, native played in 11 video games as a freshman and taped eight takes on and 1.5 sacks while playing frequently as a pass-rush specialist.
He played well enough as a freshman to possibly place himself for a starting function this season as the Tigers replace six protective beginners from their 2019 nationwide championship group. But LSU is undergoing a protective planner switch as Bo Pelini takes over following Dave Arandas departure for the head task at Baylor.
There should be no shortage of interested schools if Brooks does indeed choose to move. The 6-3, 205-pounder was a consensus top-100 possibility in the 2019 class. He chose LSU over deals from Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, Texas and Texas A&M, just to call a few.
