The No. 2 cornerback in the 2024 recruiting class has trimmed his list of possible destinations down to his final five schools. [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] has LSU in the running to land him.
[autotag]Kobe Black[/autotag] is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound, four-star cornerback from Waco, Texas, where he plays for Connally High School. The Connally Cadets finished the 2022 season 9-3 with a loss to Hamshire-Fannett in the second round of the UIL 4A D2 playoffs.
Black has trimmed his list of schools down to LSU, Oregon, Ohio State, Texas A&M and Texas. The Texas Longhorns received a Crystal Ball projection to land him back in June and the Longhorns are a 92% favorite to land him per On3.
LSU currently has four cornerback commits for the 2024 recruiting class ([autotag]Cai Bates[/autotag], [autotag]Ju’Juan Johnson[/autotag], [autotag]Ondre Evans[/autotag] and [autotag]Wallace Foster[/autotag]). Two of those guys are four-stars and the other two are three-stars. Black is a five-star and the No. 2 cornerback overall so if he were to commit he would further bolster how good this class is.
