One of LSU football‘s top targets in the 2022 recruiting class is five-star defensive back Jacoby Mathews.
Mathews, 6-foot-1/204 lbs from Ponchatoula, LA (Ponchatoula), is ranked in 247Sports’ composite rankings as the No. 2 safety in the country and the No. 27 overall player in the 2022 recruiting class.
Suffice it to say, Mathews is a must-land player for the Tigers (LSU can’t afford to miss on one of the top-rated in-state players, especially with the program’s reputation as “DBU”).
Mathews, however, won’t be an easy player to land.
