LSU Football: The reason the Tigers are on a recruiting roll right now

LSU football finished the 2020 recruiting cycle with the nation’s No. 4 recruiting class.

They might finish with an even higher ranked class in 2021.

The Tigers currently have five players committed to their 2021 recruiting class, including their most recent commit, three-star safety Dakota Mitchell.

Mitchell, the No. 404 rated player in the nation in 247Sports’ composite rankings, committed to LSU last Thursday. The Florida native told 247Sports “the energy and atmosphere in Baton Rouge is the perfect fit for me”.

LSU landing a three-star recruit isn’t big news. This is a program that is routinely landing four-star and five-star players.
