Former NC State safety Tamarcus Cooley will transfer to play for LSU in 2025, On3’s Pete Nakos reported. It will mark the second transfer in as many years for Cooley, who began his college career at Maryland in 2023.

Cooley appeared in 12 games for the Wolfpack this past season to finish with 30 total tackles, seven passes defended, one interception and two forced fumbles. Prior to that, he played one season at Maryland, appearing in four games and taking a redshirt year.

As a recruit, Cooley was a three-star prospect out of Rolesville High School in the 2023 class. He ranked as the No. 953 overall player and No. 953 overall player and No. 89 safety in the cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.

Kyren Lacy arrest: LSU WR posts bail following homicide hit-and-run charges

Former LSU football star Kyren Lacy has been released from jail after posting bail on charges stemming from a deadly hit-and-run car accident.

Lacy has been cooperating with police since an arrest warrant was issued.

The talented wide receiver was booked into the Lafourche Parish Correctional Complex early Sunday evening. He was released on $151,000 bond, according to a report from WAFB.

Kyren Lacy was wanted on negligent homicide and felony hit-and-run charges stemming from a Dec. 17, 2024 accident that killed a former Marine and injured two others. Investigators alleged Lacy fled the scene of the accident, which occurred at approx. 10 a.m. ET, after initially causing it. He also did not report his involvement to police, according to investigators.

Lacy’s agent, Rocky Arceneaux of Alliance Sports, addressed the situation and said Lacy is “fully cooperating” with authorities.

Arcenaux and Alliance are representing Lacy, who recently declared for the 2025 NFL Draft. He said the agency wouldn’t have any further comment on the matter, but is taking it “very seriously.”
