Description

Interview with LSU Tigers Coach Charles McClendon about Kenny Bordelon being moved to a linebacker position for the New Orleans Saints. McClendon mentions that Bordelon was one of his favorite athletes, leading big plays at LSU for two years. McClendon feels that Bordelon is capable, but that it will take time to adjust to linebacker. He has confidence in Bordelon's running game, but a passing game is more complicated. He thinks it will only take time, and he wishes Bordelon all the best.
