LSU basketball coach Johnny Jones secured another piece to his 2017 recruiting class on Wednesday morning when Natchitoches Central guard Brandon Rachal chose the Tigers over Texas A&M.
The 6-foot-5, 215-pound Rachal made the announcement at his school but spoke briefly with NOLA.com | The Times-Picayune about his decision.
"It's the feeling of being home," Rachal said. "I feel like I can wear that on my chest with pride representing my home state."
Rachal is rated as a four-star prospect by all the major recruiting services and 247 Sports rates him as the No.
