LSU is off to a strong start in the 2025 recruiting cycle, but it’s looking to add to its defensive line haul. After next week, it could be a lot happier with that group.
Two players the Tigers are in the mix for are set to make their decisions: four-star defensive lineman [autotag]Zion Williams[/autotag] and four-star EDGE [autotag]Damien Shanklin[/autotag]. Williams, who comes from Lufkin, Texas, commits on Thursday, while Shanklin, an Indianapolis prospect, commits the following day after originally planning to commit in late August.
LSU has recently found itself trending for both. It picked up two crystal ball projections for Williams, the No. 284 player in the cycle, in the last week. Shanklin, who On3 ranks inside the top 100, also holds a crystal ball prediction for the Tigers.
On3’s recruiting prediction machine also gives LSU a sizable lead for both.
The Tigers had both on campus for official visits in the last month, and it seems defensive line coach [autotag]Bo Davis[/autotag] used that time with the prospects productively.
