As per LSU sites, Matt O’Dowd was a preferred walk on to LSU and worked his way up to the backup QB spot for the final three games of his first season. Having climbed the depth chart, and as a result of Max Johnson transferring, he was scheduled to start at QB for LSU in the Texas Bowl but broke his foot during Bowl preparation.
Brian Kelly put O’Dowd on full scholarship.
He was in the portal less than a week, had multiple offers and chose Marist.

Marist seems to be really going for it

What is going on with this program? Does anybody have insight? LSU transfer on full scholarship? All my insight was recently shown the door, lol. Change is great. The early signs all seem positive. I doubt all the coaching hires would abandon good jobs at great programs for a mere raise. Willis was a value hire but so far thats the only typical part of the hire.

Willis watched 5 minutes of Bagozzi film and was like "nope that ain't it brother" MSU is a pretty serious FCS team.

He won't see the field at a MVFC program.
Also, Missouri State has had 1 winning season in the last 14 years, so "serious FCS team" is debatable beyond the 63 scholarships.

Coaches successfully convinced starting DL Miles Kauderer to withdraw from the portal and recommit to Marist. Big piece for the defense.

Looks like he went from LSU to Colorado before committing to Marist.

Pretty sure this kid is going to be a special receiver. I have a friend who is a HS coach on LI and he cant believe a bigger school didnt find him. Jack Melore Link Supposedly can put up 30 a night in basketball too. Just one of those best athlete in school kind of guys except he might be the best athlete in the county.

I see the size and the drop in conference level, and my immediate thought was "we could have our Wayne chrebet, wes welker type guy". I understand he didn't actually play at those schools, but the athleticism has to be there. And he did get to practice against great athletes. Put him down for 1500 yards receiving, 12 tds receiving, 175 yards on reverses with 3 more td's. No pressure:). I exaggerate, but I could see him doing really well here.
