LSU to host Maryland OL transfer Mason Lunsford
LSU offered Maryland graduate transfer offensive lineman Mason Lunsford in February. Now, he’s set to visit Baton Rouge this weekend, he announced on Twitter. The Tigers are clearly still on the hunt for offensive line depth.
Schools like Arkansas, Louisville, Houston, James Madison and others have lined up with offers for Lunsford already. The Razorbacks will host him next weekend, he tells On3.
In February, Lunsford announced he’ll be leaving Maryland to play out this final two seasons of eligibility. Lunsford started all 13 games in 2021 and 12 of 13 games in 2022 after being moved to left guard.
“Dear Terps, I want to thank the University of Maryland and the entire Maryland community for giving me a shot to play football at my dream school,” Lunsford said in a tweet. “I want to thank the endless amount of people that helped me get here and anyone that has helped me throughout these past 4 years.
