"He lives and breathes football" | Did LSU land the most ELITE QB prospect in college football?
05/16/23 • 29 min
Brian Kelly's goal is to land a quarterback in every single recruiting class. In the 2023 class, he and his team landed four star hometown kid Rickie Collins. In 2024, did he and his team land the best quarterback in the country?
Colin Hurley, the 2024 quarterback from Jacksonville, Florida, could have gone to any school of his choosing. He had offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, Miami, Ohio State and the list goes on and on and on from there; but he chose LSU. Why was LSU his pick of the litter? The Locked On Network's recruiting insider, Brian Smith, joined Caroline Fenton of Locked On LSU to give his insight Hurley, why LSU was the perfect landing spot for him, and what he can accomplish in the SEC West.

BOYS FROM THE BOOT | LSU lands 4-star CB from Lafayette
JuJuan Johnson, 4-star cornerback from Lafayette, LA announced his commitment to LSU football Monday afternoon after originally committing to play for Deion Sanders and the Colorado Buffalo but de-committed shortly after the Colorado spring game. Johnson adds much needed depth, speed, and versatility to the secondary in the 2024 class. LSU now holds the fifth ranked recruiting class in 2024 and four of the top ten ranked recruits in the state of Louisiana have committed to play for Brian Kelly and the Tigers. Of the remaining six, two are heavily favored to land in Baton Rouge while the other four have wide open commitments.
Plus, LSU continues it's pursuit of Notre Dame transfer running back and Louisiana native Logan Diggs. Diggs took his official visit to LSU over the weekend. Why would Diggs choose LSU over the other schools from which he has offers? How would the running back room look with and without the addition of Diggs?

TRANSFER PORTAL UPDATE | LSU football adds versatility, depth to the RB room with Notre Dame transfer
LSU football adds even more depth and versatility to the running back room with the transfer portal addition of Logan Diggs from Notre Dame. Diggs is also from the New Orleans area and played football in high school at Archbishop Rummel, a very familiar place to the LSU football recruiting staff and fans alike.
Diggs ran for over 800 yards last year and added over 200 yards in the air, flashing his ability to move the ball downfield both on the ground and in the air. Plus, he comes to Baton Rouge with two years of eligibility remaining. The addition of Diggs to the running back room allows offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock to be even more creative in the run game with a running back by committee and also adds insurance in case veteran RB John Emery Jr. is not academically eligible to play this season.
