After weeks of anxiety, LSU fans can take a breather. Five-star cornerback [autotag]DJ Pickett[/autotag] is officially an LSU Tiger.
Losses have piled up for the LSU 2025 recruiting class in recent weeks and there was concern Pickett would be another, but [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] and Corey Raymond got it across the finish line.
LSU hired Raymond to recruit cornerbacks of Pickett’s caliber and return LSU to the days of DBU.
Getting Picket on campus is the first step in that direction. According to On3 and Rivals, Pickett is the No. 1 CB in the class. He’s a consensus five-star and the On3 Industry Rankings rank Pickett as the No. 10 overall recruit.
After losing [autotag]Bryce Underwood[/autotag], Pickett is the top signee of LSU’s class. The Tigers will expect Pickett to make an immediate impact in 2025. He has the talent to come in and compete for a starting spot.
LSU had to hold off suitors until the end. Miami, Oregon, and Georgia all desired Pickett’s services.
