The Tigers already have commitments from the top quarterback, running back and receiver in the 2025 recruiting cycle. Now, they’ll be hosting the No. 1 safety for a visit, as well.
Zephyrhills (Fla.) five-star safety [autotag]DJ Pickett[/autotag] told On3 he will be taking the trip to Baton Rouge on Jan. 30. Pickett is a top-10 prospect nationally and the top recruit in the state of Florida.
No clear favorites have emerged so far for Pickett. He doesn’t hold any Crystal Ball predictions, and though Florida leads the way on the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine, it sits at just 26.1% followed by Michigan at 13.2%.
The Tigers will hope they can make up some of that ground when Pickett is on campus this coming week.

Pickett ranks No. 7 NATL. (No. 1 S) in the 2025 class‼️
