The LSU Tigers may have cornerback Kristian Fulton back for the 2018 season.
The cornerback's father says he was reinstated by the NCAA and will be eligible to play once he passes a drug test. The NCAA previously gave Fulton a two-year ban for tampering with a drug test sample. Fulton thought the test was for marijuana and tampered with it out of fear of a positive test, but it was actually for performance-enhancing drugs. Fulton already sat out the 2017 campaign as part of his punishment, and the NCAA accepted his family's waiver to get him back on the field after it upheld its original punishment in a previous meeting earlier this offseason.
