LSU 2021 signee Jack Bech originally committed to the Vanderbilt Commodores in March.
However, the St. Thomas More (Lafayette, Louisiana) standout picked up an offer from in-state LSU back in October, and everything changed for the wide receiver/tight end.
Bech almost immediately committed to the Tigers, joining his best friend and teammate — 2022 commit Walker Howard — and signed in December.
In the midst of the excitement surrounding his commitment to LSU, Bech was still finishing his final season of high school football.
The 6-foot-2, 215-pound Bech had a record-breaking performance for St. Thomas More in Monday night’s win over De La Salle in the state championship game to cap off an amazing season.
Bech caught 10 passes for 232 yards and two touchdowns in the Cougars’ 35-28 victory.
Bech was named offensive player of the game in the state final.
Howard capped off an impressive season in his own right, passing for over 3,000 yards and almost 40 touchdowns.
He plans on signing with LSU in Dec. 2021.
