LSU lands former 5-star defensive back transfer

The Tigers landed one of the transfer portal’s most coveted prospects on Thursday.

The bad news, LSU missed out on [autotag]Desmond Ricks[/autotag]. The good news, the Tigers picked up 2022 five-star cornerback [autotag]Denver Harris[/autotag] from Texas A&M.

The freshman played in five games for the Aggies this season making 10 tackles and three pass breakups. Coming out of high school, Harris was the No. 23 player overall and the No. 3 cornerback in the 2022 class. Now, Harris gets a chance to come to DBU and train with some of the best of all time.

What a huge win this is for Brian Kelly and his coaching staff in this recruiting class. Kelly said he will release the list of transfers tomorrow. The 2023 class ranks as the No. 7 class overall and the only recruit LSU is still in on is a five-star athlete [autotag]Nyckoles Harbor[/autotag].

Harbor has received a crystal ball to South Carolina, but Michigan is a 37% favorite to land her per On3. Harbor is not going to announce until February.
