NEW: LSU lands 2023 JUCO tight end Connor Gilbreath

LSU has added a very talented tight end as a late addition to its 2023 recruiting class.

LSU added a very talented tight end to its 2023 recruiting class. [autotag]Connor Gilbreath[/autotag] announced his commitment on Twitter late Saturday night.

LSU’s 2023 recruiting class was ranked fifth in the country by 247Sports prior to this announcement. That class already included three tight ends: [autotag]Ka’Morreun Pimpton[/autotag], [autotag]Mac Markway[/autotag] and [autotag]Jackson McGohan[/autotag].

All three have already enrolled.

Gilbreath brings more of a veteran presence since he has played at the collegiate level for the past two seasons at [autotag]Butte Community College[/autotag] in California.

The Tigers were thin at tight end last season, and [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] has done a masterful job on the recruiting trail of filling that need and other needs as well.

LSU will kick off its 2023 season on Sunday, Sept. 3 as the Tigers look to avenge last season’s loss to the Florida State Seminoles.
