A busy weekend filled with a number of recruits visiting was the perfect final volley the LSU staff was looking to make. Sunday brought further good news when JuCo pass-rusher Soni Fonua announced his commit following his visit. His commitment brought the class to 22, 19 signees from the Early Signing Period and the commitments of Fonua, Ray Parker and Maurice Hampton. That leaves three spots to finish out or likely four.
Parker, a 6-5, 250-pound tight end in high school that would likely move over to tackle, committed way back on October 1. The Early Signing Period came and passed without a signature from Parker, irking the staff a good bit.
