In the game of college football, recruiting is oftentimes more competitive than the games themselves. For the LSU Tigers and head coach Ed Orgeron, they have one of the top classes according to most recruiting boards. In fact, at this point in time, the Tigers are No. 1 in the Southeastern Conference.
The 2022 class is led by a five-star quarterback from Lafayette, Louisiana, Walker Howard. Currently listed as the No. 2 quarterback in the class behind Ohio State Buckeyes‘ commit Quinn Ewers. The QB commit is a top 20 player nationally and is expected to become the guy in the very near future in Death Valley. The Tigers have high hopes he can replicate the success of Joe Burrow and bring home another national championship.
Just below Howard, Will Campbell and Jacoby Mathews are the other two five-star commits to bring their total to three at this point. These rankings courtesy of 247Sports composite boards. LSU has a total of 11 commits and the staff is just getting started with their 2022 class. Last year, the Tigers finished with the No. 3 class overall and No. 2 in the SEC just behind the Alabama Crimson Tide.
The full breakdown of the LSU Tigers’ 2022 commits. This will be updated as more prospects pledge to play for the Tigers.
