After taking a couple of recent losses in the 2024 recruiting class, including a four-star cornerback in Ondre Evans, the Tigers got their class back up to 24 commits with the addition of [autotag]PJ Woodland[/autotag] on Sunday night.
The three-star Oak Grove (Hattiesburg, Miss.) cornerback committed to LSU over in-state SEC West foes Ole Miss and Mississippi State. He had received Crystal Ball projections in favor of both schools, including a prediction for the Rebels as recently as last weekend.
But LSU received a pair of Crystal Balls on Sunday, and it was the heavy favorite according to On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine.
