I'm banking on Fidone being at least 2nd team B1G after 800+ yards receiving and 10 TD's but I don't think he was a very good blocker.

He was probably the worst blocker on the team last year
He’s good at blowing out his knees. Heyool

Hopefully better as a blocker, it is a skill that can be learned. Being big and fast and able to catch the football is an another skill set he has. Hopefully he lives up to expectations. I think he will, but we shall see,

LSU posters on on3.
"Our former player insider said that it was because he thought he deserved and earned second string behind Taylor over spring and , but that’s not how it was playing out in fall camp. Short story."
"I was told he is eligible because he’s walking on. Allegedly Nebraska gave him a decent size NIL deal to pay for school and etc for this semester(allegedly but actually lol)"

I don't know where this is coming from, but this is what Dean said on the HOL show. I'm skeptical this is the case. We need to get some actual answers on Markway's situation because there are a lot of half-truths, rumors and speculation starting to run rampant out there. If Markway is able to play right away, then what the heck is the portal for?
I mean, how do you transfer to a new school without any contact with coaches at the new school? This makes no sense.

FWIW Verghese said the same thing when the news broke. I agree it makes no sense to allow a transfer to be immediately eligible as long as he wasn't recruited. In his case, he was highly enough recruited out of HS so that (in theory) he might feel comfortable just enrolling somewhere and showing up in the coach's office once on campus, but I agree it is unlikely.

There are lots of questions, like why he left LSU when he played so much as a true freshman? We don’t need another program’s head cases - if he is - we have had enough of those guys.

I did not see this post somehow before I questioned why he left LSU. I like the word disgruntled, so I will use that. Better had he been gruntled and Nebraska was his dream school…but disgruntled players aren’t always bad to pick up.
There’s literally no risk of picking up someone who played 12 games in the SEC as a freshman. Either he plays, or he’s a problem for maximum 5 months and leaves in the offseason.

I don't think he is eligible for this season. He will probably be sitting out this season to become eligible. An athlete doesn't have to sit out a year if they enter the portal during it's window. A non scholarship player can transfer to a school and walk on and be immediately eligible, but Markway had to be on scholarship at LSU.

I don’t know if he’ll be eligible or not but I don’t think he’ll be a factor in the rotation this year regardless. I could see him being in the top four next year but there isn’t enough time for him to catch up this year and I don’t see the staff willing to slide everyone else who went through spring, summer, and fall for someone who just arrived.
Injuries happen, if eligible he’s instantly our second best TE. I’m not saying he will play against Colorado but coming down the stretch I’d be shocked to not see him. Especially because his strength is blocking, something our tight ends struggle with.

Agree. If he's indeed eligible we'll be seeing him 2nd half of the year. Last 4 games would be ideal and then keep his redshirt. Maybe last 3 and opening round of playoffs game.
