Talented four-star defensive back Major Burns from Baton Rouge announced Thursday afternoon that he has committed to LSU.

Burns went public with his commitment with this emotional video dedicated to his Father:




Burns, a 6-2, 180-pound prospect from Madison Prep Academy was originally committed to Texas A&M but reopened his recruitment in March.

He rated the No. 7 cornerback in the country and the No. 4 overall player from the state of Louisiana for the class of 2020, according to ESPN. The Tigers now have 16 verbal commits for the class of 2020, with the addition on Burns.

Do they still run “suicides” at practice? Cuz Major Burns thinks suicides are painless.

Great to see a young MAN make this special moment about more than himself. He had to grow up fast and accept responsibility and will provide leadership to the team in a couple of years.
