Sidell Corley to transfer closer to home while his family deals with tragedy

Sidell Corley, who was expected to provide depth along LSU's D-Line this year, dealt with unspeakable tragedy during the offseason. Last May, Sidell's mother was shot and killed in her own home in Mobile, Alabama. Just a week later, Sidell's uncle drowned to death.

Understandably, Sidell wants to be closer to home, and he has requested a transfer to either Alabama or Auburn. Coach Miles, being the "honorable man" he is, "stepped up to the plate and thought about [Sidell's] welfare", according to Corley Sr.

Corley will apply for a hardship waiver, which would allow him to play immediately instead of having to sit for all of next season, which is the standard for transfers. The thoughts and prayers of Save Toonces and hopefully all of Tiger Nation are with Sidell and his family, and I wish him the best of luck in all of his future endeavors.
