Top 50 recruit, LSU basketball target to announce commitment on Friday

Four-star 2025 forward Tylis Jordan will make a decision on Friday.

Coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] and LSU men’s basketball is still looking to add the first commitment in its 2025 class, but it could be in contention to land one of the best players in the entire cycle.

[autotag]Tylis Jordan[/autotag], a four-star forward from Snellville, Georgia, is set to announce his commitment date on Friday, according to On3’s Joe Tipton. Jordan, who stands at 6-foot-9 ranks as the No. 43 player and No. 10 power forward in the 2025 class.

Jordan hasn’t named his finalists, but he’s so far taken official visits to six schools: LSU, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia Tech, Auburn and Ole Miss. The Rebels are currently the heavy favorite to land him according to the On3 recruiting prediction machine, as well as a pair of crystal balls from 247Sports placed on Wednesday.

It seems LSU has some ground to make up here, but it will hope for a surprise when Jordan announces his decision.

Top-100 2025 small forward, LSU target recaps last season’s trip to Baton Rouge

The Tigers are still looking to pick up their first commitment in the 2025 class.

LSU men’s basketball and coach [autotag]Matt McMahon[/autotag] haven’t landed a commitment in the 2025 class yet, but the team is in the mix for a lot of top players.

Top-100 small forward [autotag]Tylis Jordan[/autotag], a native of Louisville, Georgia, has taken six official visits so far. One of those trips was to Baton Rouge last September, prior to McMahon’s first season with the Tigers.

The 2025 prospect had positive things to say when recounting that trip to On3’s Joe Tipton recently.

“I like what coach (Matt) McMahon is doing down there,” he said. “Obviously when I visited there it was year one, but I like how I got to talk to each and every coach and seeing their plan. They’re slowly but surely building something over there with how they develop their players.”

Jordan ranks as the No. 79 player in the 2025 class per On3, and Alabama is currently a slim favorite to land him per the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine.

Alabama extends offer to 2025 SF from Georgia

Alabama’s coaching staff extended an offer to 2025 small forward Tylis Jordan.

Alabama’s coaching staff has already expressed interest in recruits in future classes. One of those recruits is 2025 small forward Tylis Jordan. On Thursday, the coaching staff extended an offer to Jordan.

Jordan stands at 6-foot-7 and 180 pounds, according to 247Sports. The native of Snellville, Georgia has already garnered interest from multiple programs thus far. Several of those programs are LSU, UAB, Kennesaw State, and Wichita State. At this time, the Tigers hold a sizable lead to land Jordan at 79.3%, according to On3’s RPM.

Nate Oats and the rest of the Alabama staff have made it a priority to show an early interest in some of the recruits that they think may fit their system. It has proven to work in the past as the Tide has landed JD Davison, Charles Bediako, and Josh Primo over other prestigious programs throughout the country.

Jordan will likely receive some additional offers as his high school career plays out. Alabama’s coaching staff will continue pursuing Jordan.

Roll Tide Wire will continue to follow Tylis Jordan’s recruitment as well as other Alabama basketball recruiting news.
