BREAKING: LSU lands recent Ole Miss decommit Joseph Cryer

Joseph Cryer backed off his Ole Miss commitment on Sunday shortly after receiving an LSU offer.

Well, that was fast.

LSU extended an offer to an in-state prospect committed to Ole Miss last week in [autotag]Joseph Cryer[/autotag]. The Natchitoches Central prospect decommitted from the Rebels on Sunday night, and the next day, he pledged to the Tigers.

The three-star prospect ranks just inside the top 1,000 according to 247Sports, but offensive line coach [autotag]Brad Davis[/autotag] has obviously liked what he’s seen. Now, the Tigers have managed to poach a player away from a division rival and keep him in the state of Louisiana.

It’s the second offensive lineman for the 2024 class that LSU has landed in as many days. On Sunday, three-star Texas prospect [autotag]Ory Williams[/autotag] also committed.

With those additions, LSU’s 21-man recruiting class still sits just outside the top 10 nationally, according to 247Sports.
