LSU football currently has the nation’s No. 8 recruiting class (247Sports composite), but they could have the No. 1 class by the time February rolls around.
The Tigers only have 12 commitments so far. Every team ahead of LSU has more commitments than the Tigers. As do the two teams directly behind LSU in the rankings (Minnesota and Iowa).
That means LSU has plenty of room to add players to their 2021 class.
And some of the players the Tigers are chasing are highly rated, which could quickly vault LSU to the top of the rankings.
