The LSU Tigers received some good news on Monday as they inch closer to potentially adding another member to the 2022 recruiting class. Five-star wide receiver Shazz Preston of St. James released his final four schools for recruitment. He plays both ways as a wide receiver and defensive back.
Preston is viewed as a wide receiver at the collegiate level. He would fit in nicely with the group currently committed with top quarterback Walker Howard pledged as well. That would give them another five-star pass catcher along with current sensation Kayshon Boutte.
Preston is looking at LSU, Alabama, Georgia, and Texas. Currently trending towards the Tigers but each of the four would be attractive options for any high school recruit.
“It’s the crib,” Preston said. “Coach (Mickey) Joseph and the offensive staff really believe that I can make a big impact in their offense. The environment is great, and it’s my home town. LSU is just a great spot I could see myself in.” – Preston to On3 Sports about the Tigers
