The college basketball early signing period began on Wednesday, and LSU inked National Letters of Intent from both of their current 2024 commits, [autotag]Robert Miller III[/autotag] and [autotag]Curtis Givens III[/autotag].
Miller, a Pasadena, Texas, native, and Givens — who hails from powerhouse Montverde Academy in Florida — ranks as the No. 60 and 61 players in the 2024 class, respectively, per the 247Sports Composite.
Coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] has looked more toward the transfer portal for roster building than high school recruiting. He signed just two high school players in the 2023 class, and Miller and Givens are the only players currently pledged for 2024.
However, LSU remains in the mix for several other players as it looks to improve on a class that currently ranks 28th in the nation.
“Rob has grown up loving LSU and he will take great pride in wearing the purple and gold. He is incredibly talented and possesses a unique skill set at 6-11. He has a very high ceiling, and we cannot wait to coach him at LSU.” – @CoachMcMahon https://t.co/1zGzXD1uJ0

“Curtis is a player we have recruited for a long time. Ultimately, I believe he makes everyone around him better and that is the best compliment you can give a player. We are excited for the opportunity to coach him at LSU.” – @CoachMcMahon https://t.co/05H7gghLKq
