A comparison to a former Tigers standout helped convince four-star cornerback Kary Vincent Jr. that LSU should be his college choice.
Vincent, from Port Arthur (Texas) Memorial, has family ties to Texas A&M – his dad played at Texas A&M from 1990-91 – and the Aggies recruited him. But Vincent committed to LSU last month.
“Coach Les Miles told me how much I remind him of Tyrann Mathieu and how he planned to use me as such,” Vincent told GN. “That played a big part.”
Being compared to the “Honey Badger,” a former Heisman finalist who now stars with the NFL’s Arizona Cardinals, obviously is high praise.
