LSU among top seven for 2023 WR Johntay Cook

Another top seven has LSU in the mix.

If you are looking for a game-breaker at wide receiver in the 2023 recruiting class then this would be the prospect for you. On Tuesday Johntay Cook II of DeSoto released his top seven schools. Among the SEC teams are LSU, Alabama, Ole Miss, and Texas A&M. He also has Texas among the top schools for his recruitment.

Cook is viewed as one of the top players at his position according to 247Sports composite rankings. He can show off his track speed when he gets into the open. This past season he hauled in 19 touchdown passes after snagging 10 the season before. cook averaged 21.2 yards per reception in 2021.

Cook should be one of their priorities for the 2023 class that holds just one commitment at this point. Having a five-star quarterback with Walker Howard should help the team.

Notre Dame presents offer to receiver recruit Johntay Cook II

Everyone and their mother knows by now how much Notre Dame was hurting at receiver throughout 2020.

Everyone and their mother knows by now how much Notre Dame was hurting at receiver throughout 2020. Such is the case when you’ve just lost your go-to target in Chase Claypool. That’s why the Irish are eager to replenish the position by any means possible, even if that help won’t arrive for a couple of years. On Wednesday, Del Alexander made an offer to Johntay Cook II, a high school sophomore from DeSoto, Texas:

Cook also runs track, so you know right away that his speed will be a valuable commodity for whatever school he ends up with. He’ll have his pick, too, because several prominent programs already have thrown their hats in the ring for him. They include Oklahoma, Alabama, Texas, Baylor, Florida State, South Carolina, Texas Tech, Kansas, Arizona State, Oklahoma State, USC, Georgia Tech, Pittsburgh, Auburn, LSU, Illinois and Nebraska. There obviously are high hopes for his future if he’s getting all of these offers now, so Notre Dame would be extremely lucky to land him.
