The three days between Lane Kiffin’s arrival to Baton Rouge on Sunday and the start of the early signing period Wednesday has brought a flurry of notable recruiting movement for LSU.
Several one-time Ole Miss commitments have taken a step back from those pledges, reported new offers from the Tigers or even announced their plan to follow Kiffin and his key staffers to their new program.
One longtime LSU commit reopened his recruitment, while another is weighing holding off signing until February. And the Tigers’ most recent pledge prior to the coaching news has also reported a new offer from the Rebels.
Here’s a rundown of the latest LSU-relevant recruiting updates.
We’ll continue to add more here into and through Wednesday’s signing day.
