BREAKING: LSU lands top-10 offensive tackle in 2023 class

LSU’s 2023 class is back in the top 10 after adding New Orleans prospect Tyree Adams.

LSU had a bit of a slow start when it came to recruiting along the offensive line this offseason, but it now has two blue-chip prospects in the 2023 class as four-star New Orleans offensive tackle [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag] committed to LSU on Friday.

He chose the Tigers over Florida, Georgia, Ole Miss and others, and he joins three-star Buford, Georgia, offensive tackle [autotag]Paul Mubenga[/autotag] in the class.

Adams attends St. Augustine High School in New Orleans which also produced former LSU stars [autotag]Tyrann Mathieu[/autotag] and [autotag]Leonard Fournette[/autotag]. He the No. 196 overall prospect on the 247Sports Composite, and On3’s rankings list him as the No. 10 offensive tackle prospect in the class.

At 6-foot-5, 285 pounds, Adams has great size right out of the gate and could potentially compete for early playing time when he gets to campus. He mostly played right tackle as a junior last fall but could play on the left side as well.

Adams becomes the 17th member of LSU’s 2023 recruiting class, which now ranks No. 10 in the country on the 247Sports Composite. The Tigers have landed 11 commits for this cycle so far in July, and it doesn’t look like coach [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] is slowing down with the team in a good position for other blue-chip Louisiana prospects like five-star Baton Rouge receiver [autotag]Shelton Sampson Jr.[/autotag]

4-star offensive tackle moves Swamp visit date to big weekend

The Gators will have to wait a couple of extra days before getting this big man on campus.

A tidal wave of high school recruits is closing in on Gainesville this weekend for Florida football’s annual Friday Night Lights and team cookout. The bags are packed, the trips are booked and the top prep prospects from around the country have begun to descend upon the Swamp in the days leading up to the big events.

However, there has been a bit of a change in plans for four-star offensive tackle [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag] out of New Orleans (Louisiana) St. Augustine. The 6-foot-5-inch, 285-pound trench warrior was originally scheduled to stop by campus on Wednesday and Thursday of this week for his third visit with the team, but instead, has pushed back his dates to July 30 and 31 to squeeze in a visit with the LSU Tigers and Ole Miss Rebels beforehand.

He will also be back to watch the Gators’ season-opener at home against the Utah Utes on September 3.

Florida and the two aforementioned schools account for three of Adams’ top four preferred destinations, with the Georgia Bulldogs also in the mix. The Orange and Blue have a bit of an edge on the sidelines as running backs coach [autotag]Jabbar Juluke[/autotag] brings in strong ties from his home in the bayou.

“Coach Juluke actually coached my head coach,” he told 247Sports. “He coached him and a few of my assistant coaches at my school. We have an amazing relationship with coach Juluke. Coming from Louisiana, he understands.”

Adams is currently ranked No. 196 overall and No. 20 in his class nationally according to the 247Sports composite, while the On3 consensus has him at Nos. 209 and 17, respectively. LSU holds the lone crystal ball prediction from 247Sports while dominating the On3 Recruiting Prediction Machine’s numbers with a 91.3% chance of signing him; the Gators are second at 2.8%.

Florida sets official visit date with this 4-star offensive tackle

The Gators will get an official visit from this blue-chip recruit after stopping in at the end of July.

The next big date on Florida football’s recruiting schedule is the annual Friday Night Lights and team cookout held at the end of July. While these landmark events have been one of the primary focuses of [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] and his staff lately, the new crew is also looking ahead to continue their momentum forward.

Among those planning on attending the festivities at the month’s conclusion is four-star offensive tackle [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag], who also locked in an official visit to the Swamp on September 3 according to an announcement he made on his personal Twitter account. This also happens to be the same day as the team’s season opener against the Utah Utes.

The 6-foot-5.5-inch, 283-pound lineman has already made a pair of stops in Gainesville this year and his visit at the end of July will mark his third since he was offered a scholarship by the program back in March. Adams previously swung through on April 5 shortly after his offer and spent an unofficial visit on June 6 while at the team’s camp.

The rising senior out of St. Augustine (Louisiana) Marrero currently has Florida, along with the Georgia Bulldogs, LSU Tigers and Ole Miss Rebels out front in his recruitment.

Adams is currently ranked No. 209 overall and No. 21 at his position nationally according to the 247Sports composite, while the On3 consensus has him at Nos. 211 and 19, respectively. He currently holds one crystal ball projection for LSU from 247Sports while On3’s Recruiting Prediction Machine also has the Tigers out front with an 85.5% chance of landing him; the Gators are second at 5.2%.

LSU lands commitment from 4-star Baton Rouge running back

LSU landed one of the top running backs in the country on Tuesday.

LSU stayed hot on the recruiting trail this week with another blue-chip commit.

Running back [autotag]Kaleb Jackson[/autotag] from Liberty Magnet High School in Baton Rouge elected to stay home and play with the Tigers. According to On3’s prediction machine, Alabama was LSU’s biggest threat to pluck the in-state recruit, but coach [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] managed to keep Jackson in the boot.

Jackson — the No. 192 player in the country and No. 6 running back — took visits to LSU, Alabama, and Texas A&M in June. On 247Sports, Jackson had received three Crystal Balls, all for LSU.

The 247Sports Composite Rankings have Jackson as the sixth-best running back in the class. Jackson runs track as well and has good speed. He’s listed at 5-foot-10 and 200 pounds.

Jackson is the second running back to join LSU’s 2023 class after fellow Louisiana recruit [autotag]Trey Holly[/autotag] committed in May. He is just the third Louisiana recruit to commit to LSU this cycle, joining Holly and defensive back [autotag]Ashton Stamps[/autotag].

It’s a positive sign after LSU’s had some in-state struggles in the past month. Blue-chip Louisiana prospects like [autotag]Shelton Sampson Jr.[/autotag] and [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag] could be next.

LSU currently has a top 10 recruiting class in the 2023 cycle, and it could get even better in the coming weeks and months.

Which uncommitted players are likely coming to LSU?

LSU is having a great start to July on the trail, and the month could be about to get even better.

LSU has been red hot on the recruiting trail to start July.

This is a big-time of year for commitments. Players have wrapped up their visits for the summer and may want to have their recruitment concluded before their high school season begins in the fall.

Despite the recent wave of decisions, there are still plenty of big targets on the board. LSU has positioned itself well with quite a few. A few of these decisions could come in the next few weeks, with [autotag]Jalen Brown[/autotag] even poised to decide on Friday.

Let’s take a look at some of the guys you can expect to see put pen to paper for the Tigers when signing day rolls around.

4-star OT names Florida in top 4, will return to the Swamp for another visit

Four-star offensive tackle Tyree Adams is planning his third unofficial visit to the Swamp.

On the day of his 17th birthday, July 1, four-star offensive tackle [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag] narrowed things down to four SEC schools: Florida, Georgia, LSU and Ole Miss. Billy Napier and Co. will get at least one more chance to meet with Adams on July 27-28 when he comes into town for another unofficial visit, according to 247Sports.

This will be Adams’ third visit to the Swamp since he first made it to Gainesville in early April. He also camped with Florida’s coaching staff on visit No. 2 in June and is looking to make his official visit to UF on Oct. 15 when the Gators face the LSU Tigers, but that isn’t penciled into the schedule just yet. His only planned official visit as of publishing time is an Oct. 7 to Alabama.

Adams doesn’t have a date set for his commitment, but a decision should come before the early signing period. That means those October visits could heavily influence his decision and it’s to Florida’s benefit to be scheduled after ‘Bama.

“They (Florida) are definitely competing with all the other schools I have right now, and I just look forward to continuing to build this relationship,” Adams said to Swamp247. “I am already starting to narrow it down, but I haven’t posted and I doubt I will. I just am going to take it day by day and take some visits and then I will think about committing by early Signing Day.”

After missing out on five-star offensive tackle [autotag]Francis Mauigoa[/autotag] to Miami, going heavy on Adams makes sense. He’s a four-star talent and sits just outside of the top 200 overall players in the class of 2023 on both the 247Sports composite (No. 209) and the On3 consensus (No. 212).

LSU is viewed as the leader from the outside, but that’s often based on the Tigers’ dominance in the region. Florida’s new staff has extensive ties to the state of Louisiana and could prioritize Adams in the coming weeks to get him out of Bayou State.

LSU makes the cut for four-star offensive line prospect

LSU makes the cut for one of Louisiana’s top players.

One of the top players in Louisiana released his top four on Friday, and LSU made the cut.

[autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag], an offensive tackle out of New Orleans, took to Twitter to announce that his recruitment would be coming down to LSU, Ole Miss, Georgia and Florida.

According to the 247Sports Composite rankings, Adams is the 21st-ranked tackle in the class of 2023 and the 14th-ranked player in Louisiana. He attends St. Augustine in New Orleans, a high school that has produced a handful of LSU players including [autotag]Leonard Fournette[/autotag].

247 had yet to enter any Crystal Balls for Adams, but On3’s prediction machine has LSU in the lead.

Adams is a must-get for LSU. The state of Louisiana hasn’t produced a ton of blue-chip offensive tackles over the years, so when there is one available, it has to be able to close the deal.

The Tigers have been up and down with in-state recruits in the 2023 cycle. Landing Adams could help reassure that [autotag]Brian Kelly[/autotag] and staff know what they are doing with in-state recruits.

4-star OT names top schools list with only SEC teams

Tyree Adams considers his top four schools to be LSU, Ole Miss, Georgia, and Florida.

Four-star offensive tackle recruit Tyree Adams is planning to play college football in the SEC. Adams is a member of the class of 2023 and plays high school football for St. Augustine High School in New Orleans, Louisiana.

Tyree Adams considers his top four schools to be LSU, Ole Miss, Georgia, and Florida. The 6-foot-5, 285-pound offensive tackle has scholarship offers from Georgia, Michigan, Indiana, Penn State, Texas A&M and Florida among others.

Adams is ranked as the No. 209 prospect in the rising senior class. He is the No. 21 offensive tackle and the No. 14 recruit in Louisiana.

Adams played right tackle for much of his junior season at St. Augustine. The talented offensive tackle is very mobile and is a sturdy pass blocker that can get to the second level in the run game.

Adams’ recruiting stock has recently risen significantly. Georgia offered the four-star offensive tackle on April 16, 2022.

First-year head coach Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers should have an advantage recruiting Adams. Kelly has an excellent history of developing offensive line talent and LSU is the school of choice for most of the top talent within the state.

Tyree Adams announced his top four schools via Twitter:

Fresh off second trip to UF, 4-star OT talking official visit

Billy Napier seems to be making it a personal mission to get this 4-star OT out of Louisiana.

Four-star offensive tackle [autotag]Tyree Adams[/autotag] visited the University of Florida for the first time on April 5. On Monday, June 6, he returned to participate in a one-day camp with the Gators’ coaching staff and may be planning another visit already.

Gators Online reported that Adams is looking at the Oct. 15 matchup between Florida and LSU, the hometown team in the hunt, for his official visit to UF. Beating the Tigers in Gainesville would be hard to ignore, and [autotag]Billy Napier[/autotag] wants this recruit. The Gators’ head coach talks regularly with Adams and is treating him as a priority recruit.

“Yesterday at the camp, I did really well,” Adams said Tuesday to Gators Online.  They show me consistent love each and every day. Coach Juluke, he texts me and asks how I’m doing often. With coach Sale, he texts me from time to time and just asks how I’m doing. Coach Napier texts me a lot too and showing me what Florida is all about.”

Alabama, Georgia and Ole Miss are the other programs set to receive official visits from Adams. The Crimson Tide will get him on Oct. 7 and that’s the only scheduled visit as of now.

LSU is the favorite right now to win over Adams, but there’s plenty of time to pry the New Orleans native out of Louisiana. It helps that Napier spent the last three years around those parts and has the kind of style Adams likes.

“He is a great coach. He’s cool, calm and collected,” he said. “He is the type of coach who doesn’t have to yell at you to get your attention. I really like that.

“The discipline he wants from his players is top-tier. He’s a really great guy to be around.”

The On3 consensus ranks Adams No. 210 overall in the class of 2023 and No. 20 among offensive tackles. The service’s individual rankings shed a more favorable light on him, perhaps the same light Napier sees him in, at No. 118 overall and No. 14 at his position.

UGA football offers big New Orleans OT

The Georgia Bulldogs have offered a scholarship to class of 2023 offensive tackle prospect Tyree Adams

The Georgia Bulldogs have offered a scholarship to class of 2023 offensive tackle prospect Tyree Adams. The Dawgs, who have had much more success recruiting Louisiana under Kirby Smart, are among the latest schools to offer the three-star offensive lineman.

Adams plays football for St. Augustine High School in New Orleans, Louisiana. The 6-foot-5, 285-pound offensive tackle has offers from schools like Georgia, Michigan, Indiana, Penn State, Texas A&M, Florida, and many more.

Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers should have an edge recruiting Tyree Adams. Kelly has an excellent history of developing offensive line talent and LSU is the school of choice for most of the top talent within the state.

The three-star offensive tackle is rated as the No. 520 recruit in the class of 2023 and the No. 19 recruit in Louisiana.

Adams announced his scholarship offer from the Georgia Bulldogs via his Twitter account:

Congratulations to the young man from New Orleans. If he does not attend Georgia, then there is a good chance the Bulldogs will be playing against him in the SEC.
