HUGE pick up, big surprise. Everyone thought Bama, with UGA having an outside shot. https://247sports.com/college/lsu/A...g-2020-class-Arik-Gilbert-commits--137415953/
He was in town for Florida and then watched Thad Moss get some serious action last week. Huge get if we can hold him.
It will be very interesting as we head down the home stretch to see how LSU plays out their three remaining spots. Or do we have some attrition by flips or some commits being revoked? Do we get a flip or surprise on signing day? We don't have many spots, but have several big fish with serious interest. I really hope we can pick up a big time OL though, that's still our biggest weakness IMO. DL also can use more help.

That’s a great read. He wants to go to LSU to be at “THAT school, even if I wasn’t going to play football”. Folks, we have a GA recruit coming to LSU for the same goosebump reasons we all did. He knows it’s where he wants to be....where he wants to attend college. Very refreshing for a college football recruit in 2019. He’s not changing. He done.
