LSU set to host 5-star cornerback this weekend

LSU is hosting one of the best prospects in the 2024 recruiting class this weekend in Baton Rouge.

LSU is hosting one of the best prospects in the 2024 recruiting class this weekend in Baton Rouge as it tries to persuade him to become a Tiger.

[autotag]Kobe Black[/autotag] is a 6-foot-1, 190-pound, five-star cornerback from Waco, Texas, where he plays for Connally High School. The Connally Cadets finished the 2022 season 9-3 with a loss to Hamshire-Fannett in the second round of the 4A D2 playoffs.

LSU’s 2024 recruiting class currently is ranked as the No. 4 overall class by 247Sports and has 12 commits currently. Two of those are cornerbacks, four-star [autotag]Zion Ferguson[/autotag] and three-star [autotag]Wallace Foster[/autotag].

Black is ranked as the No. 15 overall recruit in his class and the No. 2 cornerback. Oklahoma State, Texas A&M, Texas and Baylor are all vying for his talents.

There are currently no crystal ball projections at this time for Black but Oklahoma State is a 28% favorite to land him per On3. Hopefully, [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] and his staff can convince him to spend his years in college at LSU.
