Gary Brockman for Indy Star / USA TODAY NETWORK
Four-star defensive end Joshua Mickens from Indianapolis, Ind., announced Monday that he has de-committed from LSU.

Mickens, a 6-5, 225-pound prospect from Lawrence Central High School, originally committed to LSU back in July. He becomes the second defensive lineman to recently depart LSU 2023 recruiting class as 4-star DE Darron Reed flipped to Auburn last week.



For more info on Mickens, visit his profile page on our recruiting tracker.

Why oh why give a decommitt a headline? If they don't want to be a real TIGER then ignore them.

This is shitty reporting. Find out the whole story before you post half of a story.

So sorry about his personal loss. Can’t say I wouldn’t do the same, based on his situation.

Good luck kid. Sorry about your personal loss of a family member. I believe you would have loved Baton Rouge.

Our country is so weird. 16,17,18 year old kids deciding where they want to go play college football is the headline. I'm part of the problem by clicking, just observing our weird culture.

Too much hype by the media and fans on these commitments. They are just children remember.

Read through this kids story last week. He recently lost his father and I think he is making a decision that he feels is best for his family. Good luck to this young man and his future.

I am not surprised by this since we had a plethora of DE/Edge commits early.

Still kind of cool when we land an obvious freak, but just the day to day…not interested in being that invested.

These kids many times commit without any intention of ever setting foot on campus. Their true goal is to get the offer they really want.

I read somewhere that his dad died and he got an offer close to home. If true, I can’t fault the kid.

Exactly. Based off hearing that, I don't blame the kid at all for choosing to play closer to home. Wish nothing but the best for him and his family.
