Five-star LSU Tigers commitment DJ Pickett recently visited the University of Georgia for the Tennessee game. Pickett came away very impressed with Georgia’s environment for the Tennessee game.
“Georgia’s atmosphere is the best I have seen at night,” said Pickett after the Georgia-Tennessee game. LSU is often considered to be the best night environment in the country, but Pickett and statistics disagree.
Georgia has won a school record 29 straight home games. The Bulldogs have not lost a night game in Athens in a very long time. LSU is coming off an embarrassing 42-13 loss to Alabama at home and at night. LSU is looking to start a new night game winning streak. The Tigers have a pair of night games to finish the season.
Pickett, who is a member of the class of 2025, plays football for Zephyrhills High School, which is located outside of Tampa, Florida.
The 6-foot-4, 180-pound defensive back is the No. 2 player at his position in the 2025 recruiting class. Pickett is the No. 1 player in Florida and the No. 10 player in the nation in the 2025 recruiting cycle, per 247Sports.
Pickett has been committed to LSU since July 2024. Kirby Smart and Georgia would love to flip Pickett because UGA has only two cornerback commitments in the class of 2025.
