LSU Football Recruiting: Tigers Add Ole Miss Decommit Jospeh Cryer

LSU Recruiting is on a Roll

LSU’s recruiting class continues to gain strength as they have secured commitments from two promising offensive linemen for their 2024 class. The Tigers made a significant move by extending an offer to Joseph Cryer, a talented in-state prospect who had previously been committed to Ole Miss. Cryer, a three-star recruit ranked just inside the top 1,000 by 247Sports, had a change of heart and decided to de-commit from the Rebels on Sunday night.

Tigers Wasted No Time Recruiting Cryer

Seizing the opportunity, LSU acted swiftly, and on the very next day, Cryer made his intentions clear by pledging to the Tigers. This commitment marks a significant win for LSU, not only in terms of securing a talented prospect but also for poaching him away from a division rival. By convincing Cryer to stay in his home state of Louisiana, LSU’s coaching staff, particularly offensive line coach Brad Davis, showcased their prowess in recruiting and player evaluation.

Joseph Cryer’s decision to join LSU adds another promising piece to their 2024 class, which is now bolstered by the presence of two talented offensive linemen. On the previous day, the Tigers also received a commitment from Ory Williams, a three-star prospect hailing from Texas. With these two commitments, LSU is steadily building a strong foundation for their future offensive line.
