Though there’s still a lot of time between now and early signing day in December, LSU seems to be in a good position to land Lilburn (Ga.) Parkview cornerback [autotag]Jalyn Crawford[/autotag].
The Tigers recently made the top 11 for the 6-foot, 180-pound prospect. They’re joined by North Carolina, Florida, Miami, Georgia Tech, Texas A&M, Louisville, Clemson, South Carolina, Tennessee and Auburn.
Though he hasn’t trimmed his list down much, there’s reason to believe the Tigers are emerging as a frontrunner. They hold a Crystal Ball projection from 247Sports’ Steve Wiltfong — though it was placed nearly a year ago — and they have a wide lead per the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine at 77.6%.

Auburn also seems to be a top contender for Crawford, who ranks as the No. 16 cornerback and No. 135 overall player nationally according to On3’s industry rankings.
LSU’s consensus top-10 2024 class currently features 14 players and two cornerbacks, [autotag]Zion Ferguson[/autotag] and [autotag]Wallace Foster[/autotag]. The Tigers will hope to soon add Crawford’s name to that list.
