Summary

Stephen Sullivan never imagined he'd graduate from college. But that's what LSU's senior tight end did last week. He sits down on this week's episode of HFP (18:39) to talk about his life. From sleeping under a bridge and in hotel rooms to becoming the first in his family to graduate high school and college, Sullivan enters his final season more motivated than ever and ready to break out in a new position.

Before that conversation, we break down some early storylines in camp, including the improvement of the offensive line, the impressive wide receivers, and the impatient freshman.

Also, we hear about one LSU player who has been carrying bricks in his back pack all summer.

Don't forget to leave a five star rating, write up a short (or long) review, and share HFP with all your friends.

Back next week after Saturday's scrimmage in Tiger Stadium.
