The 6-1, 225-pound prospect from Marrero, La. (John Ehret) is rated the No. 6 inside linebacker in the country and the No. 6 overall player from the state of Louisiana for the class of 2019.

Starks verbal pledge gives the Tigers 19 commitments for the class of 2019. He joins 4-star prospect Marcel Brooks and Zach Edwards, along with 3-star prospect Kendall Mccallum to round out LSU's linebacker class.

I love it when these Louisiana guys stay home and become Tigers! Nothing will make their family and friends prouder than to be in the stands when they run out of that tunnel on a cool night in the fall.

I grew up in Marrero and actually lived across the canal from John Ehret. Love this! I hope he is earnest in his commitment as the year goes and and signs the dotted line.
