Last week, LSU lost five-star edge rusher Jaiden Bryant as the South Carolina native decommitted from the Tigers and gave a verbal pledge to Miami. But on Sunday, LSU got a commitment from another five-star edge rusher as KJ Green from Stone Mountain, Georgia, chose the Tigers over Georgia, Alabama and Oregon. Green had 18 sacks, 40 tackles for a loss, and four forced fumbles at Stephenson High School last season.
LSU also landed a commitment from a three-star running back out of Texas by the name of Brennan Lacy. Notre Dame, Miami, and Texas Tech were also interested in the six-foot-one speedster, who can run the 100-meter dash in less than 11 seconds.
For the first time since 2023, Mondo Duplantis of Lafayette did not win a pole vaulting event in Stockholm, Sweden. The 26-year-old was defeated by Australia’s Kurtis Marschall, ending a streak of 40 straight victories.
