Bankston Transferring to the Rajun Cajuns (EDIT: Now Houston)
- Thread starter FeedBreece

Exactly. Pretty obvious to me...LA can beat up on the Sun Belt while getting a lot of attention doing it. It's a move by Latrell to get to the NFL. If it wasn't a good fit at ISU then good for him for moving on. I wish him the best.
If you can't beat em, join em 
That's actually a good spot for him. I imagine he'll put up big numbers next year.

They’ve put out a few NFL players lately. He will have a chance to shine against mostly lesser talent(and some bigger talent still). He gets his wish of playing on a 4 man front where he’ll be able to make more plays.
But yeah, I get the feeling something went down behind the scenes.

Good luck to Bankston. This one is a bit of a head scratcher for me though as he was critical in the Texas game, then seemed to fall off the map before announcing the transfer. If he is looking for starter minutes and stats understood and good luck to him. Still a strong position group for us.
Judging by what both Latrell and Matt Campbell have said (“He’s a great guy!”), here’s what the “mutual” was:
Latrell: “Coach, I want to start. I need to start next year.”
CMC: “Latrell, you know I can’t guarantee that until I see consistency on every play. Isaiah is consistent.”
Latrell: “You mean, I have to wait til next Fall to prove it?”
CMC: “Yup.”
Latrell: “Crap.”
To a well coached top 25 team that beat us?
Don't worry, we have plenty of excuses as to why we're actually the better team. This board spent the early 2000s taking notes from Hawkeye fans.
I didn’t actually think the “beat us” part was necessary, but left it on out of simple honesty.
Napier is a good coach. ULL is a level where an athletic 6’0” DT can excel. He’s guaranteed a starting spot he wouldn’t get at a P5 school. I don’t see how it’s a strange move at all.
Maybe Louisiana’s coach will let him sit out of practice if he’s not willing to put in the effort.
Obviously, he made a bet on the game and lost... now he's having to pay up... 
Y’know, I’m a little tired of the repeated character assassination for a player who made two huge plays that helped win an immense game for us.
He made a choice he felt was best for himself and his future. It’s not hurting us. Get over it.

All jokes here. It’s ultimately his choice he needs to make for himself, and we’re all well aware of that.
