Ed Orgeron and the LSU coaching staff landed a big commitment on Friday from 2022 four-star quarterback Walker Howard.

Howard is the son of former LSU quarterback Jamie Howard who played for the Tigers from 1992-1995.

The pro-style prospect from Lafayette, La, chose the Tiger over offers from schools like Alabama, Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Penn State, Arizona State, and many others.

Howard is rated the No. 3 pro-style passer in the country for the class of 2022, according to 247 Sports.

So if they bring him off the bench against Auburn in 2022 we’d have Howard Jr. vs. Nix Jr? Surreal.

Amazing what winning a National Championship, beating Bama,and having a Legendary, Heisman winning QB break damn near every record all in the same year will do. Just think what these other schools are saying to recruits. No longer can they tell QBs to not go to LSU because you will be wasted. Lol.

Jamie Howard was a tough dude. During his time at LSU, the OL was atrocious. To say he took a beating on a consistent basis would be an understatement. In fact, Jamie sustained a shoulder injury while playing football for LSU that also ended his professional baseball career. He was in the Atlanta Braves minor league system, and was a hihly-regarded pitcher. They had plans to eventually make him a closer.

He was a class act during some very tough years. Would love to see Jr. bring it home for the Howard family.

I've never really seen him play, but the young man has already won me over with that tribute to his Mother. NOTHING is better than having a good Mother. I lost mine to pancreatic cancer, so I can empathize with what the young man went thru. Hope he has a great career at LSU.

I knew his mom and her family growing up. All were great folks. KD was just as beautiful on the inside as she was on the outside. She had every reason in the world to be "better" than you and never even thought of it. Happy for this kid and his family.

Man, Jamie Howard was a solid player who gave the Tigers everything he had. Now he gives us his son. Sad that this story is marked with tragedy but these tough men continue on anyway.
