According to On3, Duncanville (Tex.) running back Caden Durham has locked in June official visits to Michigan State and Oklahoma.
The Sooners lead the way for Durham according to On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine, but LSU sits closely behind. According to a report from Sam Spiegelman, the Tigers are a program that is surging for Durham, who ranks No. 128 nationally per both 247Sports’ and On3’s industry composite rankings but cracks the top 100 in the latter’s own rankings.
Durham had high praise for running backs coach [autotag]Frank Wilson[/autotag], who Durham said made him feel like a priority. According to On3’s report, Wilson told Durham that LSU sees him as the feature back and top priority in LSU’s class.
The Tigers will hope to remain in the race here and close things out. That will likely require securing an official visit this summer, but coach [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] and Co. seem to be in a good position to do so.
