LSU defensive back coach Corey Raymond landed a big-time commitment on Wednesday with elite five-star cornerback DJ Pickett giving his verbal pledge to the Tigers.

Pickett chose LSU over Oregon and Miami.

Pickett, a 6-4, 170-pound prospect from Tampa, Fla. (Zephyrhills HS) is the No. 1 cornerback in the county for the class of 2025 and the No. 1 player from Florida.

Wilson Pickett sang,” I'm gonna wait 'til the midnight hour”. DJ Pickett is ready for nights in Tiger Stadium & by the midnight hour LSU will be DBU again & NC

If he's whined as much as you have lately, I'd actually be worried.

We'll know if he plans another football team march across an empty campus.
