Prized class of 2021 LSU defensive end commitment Landon Jackson? of Texarkana (TX) Pleasant Grove talks with TigerBait.com about his season ending injury, surgery and rehabilitation timeline.

War Room*** Four-star safety Derrick Davis of Monroeville (Pa.) Gateway High School is set to announce his verbal commitment tomorrow at approximately 3pm CST. The assumption going into this week after he visited Baton Rouge last weekend was that he was Penn State bound, especially after Sage Ryan committed to LSU.Well, I put in a prediction for LSU in the chat last night and on facebook live after talking to my source early evening last night.LSU wants more safety help and they are looking to rebuild that position in a hurry. *** With Davis tomorrow, that would give LSU 22 commitments for the class of 2021. Everyone knows there's more names on the board than there are spots. LSU will sign a full class of 25 for this year. Whether that's 24 with one spot held back for a grad transfer remains to be seen but they will have a full class of 25.Obviously, there's going to be some movement in the class here in the coming weeks. That's a sensitive situation, so i'm not going to speculate.There are still many LSU fans out there who think what LSU offered to the NCAA is currently accepted and it affects the class. No, it is not in effect yet and it only has to do with the 85 roster. Not the individual classes.Also, I'm told that LSU has no idea right now as to when they'll get word from the NCAA on whether they accept the self-imposed sanctions that they offered up. *** The biggest need in this class the rest of the way is offensive linemen. I still have Tristan Leigh and Savion Byrd in the probable category to LSU. There's also some possibilities of grad transfers that could be visited in the spring if LSU is under.*** Running backs. Still recruiting several but can also take it to the house with just Corey Kiner if they don't get who they want. They are still after Auburn commit Armoni Goodwin and taking a strong look at Notre Dame commit Logan Diggs of Rummel.*** LSU is still trying to make things happen with big Texas DE Shemar Turner of Desoto, Texas. He's in the 275-pound range which is what LSU under Bo Pelini is looking for. LSU has had success at that school. Ed Ingram, Evan Washington and Jalen Mills. A&M folks seem confident, but Alabama, Georgia, Texas and others also involved. Would be huge to land Turner to go along with Saivion Jones and Landon Jackson.*** Nothing new on 5-star defensive lineman Maason Smith. He's still a probable to LSU and I hope to have something coverage wise on him in the coming few weeks.*** Five-star defensive end Korey Foreman is still a possibility for LSU but like we've been saying for a while they are battling Georgia. I'm also told that Arizona State could be getting in there and making things interesting. *** Walker wide receiver Brian Thomas is sticking in the probable category. After getting Jack Bech's commitment I know many thought that meant Thomas was lost either because of why they went after Bech or just from a numbers crunch. No, LSU is still solidly after Thomas. I'm here all weekend to answer your questions. I feel like i'm missing something in this reset so I might come back and add more.
