I'm always frightened for the big guys on the LSU football teams’ line of scrimmage. Because the big men are the biggest and strongest football players. So when they but head with one another over and over again on just about every play, and are in the greatest danger to get seriously hurt. By tearing up their ligaments, bones, and suffering from too many concussions. Football is truly a fierce brutal contact sport that some of those very brave guys don't make it without serious injury. And are quickly forgotten without so much as a decent farewell. So these very big strong your men must really have a deep passion to be a great college football player who might someday become a professional in the NFL.

Big guard looks to have claimed starting spot on veteran O-line

LSU linemen Hoko Fanaika and Evan Washington sat down with Boutte and told him that he should have started at right guard last season and not them.

“Just hearing that from them and Vadal (Alexander) telling me how much potential I have, it put that in my mind, ‘I can actually do it,’” Boutte said in a recent interview.
And here he is. He’s doing it – at least so far.
Boutte has climbed the steep ladder from fourth string to first string in less than a year, mounting a charge during spring practice, dominating in summer workouts, and then “mauling people,” as one lineman put it, so far in preseason camp.
The 6-foot-5, 340-pound Boutte is LSU’s projected right guard on an offensive line that’s expected to be one of the strengths of this team. It’s a veteran, experienced group with bodies that are both tall and wide.
Boutte might be the largest of them all.
