BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) -LSU running back Charles Scott and offensive lineman Ciron Black have scheduled a joint news conference on Wednesday to announce whether they’ll remain with the Tigers or enter the NFL draft.
LSU officials said coach Les Miles would join the players at their announcement, which was scheduled for 2 p.m. in Baton Rouge.
Scott, a bruising power runner with deceptive agility and speed, led LSU in rushing in 2008, his junior season, with 1,174 yards and 18 touchdowns on 217 carries, an average of 5.4 yard per carry.
Black, who is 6-foot-5, 327 pounds, has started at left tackle the past three seasons and would be the leader of the offensive line if he chose to return for his senior season.
LSU is already losing two starting linemen from 2008, senior center Brett Helms and senior left guard Herman Johnson.
