LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) -- Jake St. Andre, a linebacker for the Ragin' Cajuns, has stepped into a larger role this season on Louisiana's defense after earning a scholarship in June from head coach Michael Desormeaux.

Through seven games in the 2025 season, St. Andre has recorded 36 total tackles.

St. Andre's journey to a scholarship is a testament to his perseverance and dedication. Starting as a walk-on, he has worked his way up through the ranks of the Ragin' Cajuns football program, overcoming injuries and learning from experienced teammates.

"I mean, it's been incredible," St. Andre said. "You know, you look back, it's my fifth season now and it's like how far you come as an individual in college."
