Well, it’s official. Popular gymnast Livvy Dunne has announced her decision about whether or not she will be coming back for a fifth year with the LSU Tigers in a new TikTok video.
It was just last week that the 21-year-old said she hadn’t yet decided whether to return the Tigers’ national championship winning gymnastics team this fall.
“So I do have eligibility for a fifth year, which I haven’t decided yet,” Dunne told the New York Post. “I am thinking about it… But I do have eligibility [for another year at LSU].
“I don’t think I’m going to try for the Olympics or anything after, since I once competed for Team USA and I closed that chapter and went to LSU.”
On Monday, Livvy Dunne revealed that she has decided to return for a fifth year.
“Dear LSU, these past four years have changed my life,” Dunne said in the TikTok video.
“There’s something about putting on a purple and gold leotard. There’s something about competing in front of 13,000 screaming Tiger fans. There’s something about being pushed by your coaches to be your very best.
“And there’s something about being part of a team that made school history. And no matter how many opportunities come my way off the mat, there’s just something about L-S-U.
“And that’s why I’m here to say, I’m not Dunne yet.”

Olivia Dunne had joked over the weekend that she had been “snubbed” by the U.S. Olympic team with a compilation of some of her funniest gymnastics failures.
Now, she will be back to rake in even more of that NIL money that she has reaped by merely being on the LSU gymnastics team, regardless of how little she actually competes.
