Derick E. Hingle-USA TODAY Sports
The LSU coaching staff landed a huge commitment on Friday afternoon when four-star defensive lineman Jaquelin Roy announced his verbal pledge to the Tigers.

The 6-4, 288-pound prospect from Baton Rouge (University Lab) chose LSU over Alabama and Texas A&M.


Roy is rated the No. 4 defensive tackle in the country, and the No. 1 overall player from the state of Louisiana for the class of 2020, according to Rivals. He was a one-time LSU commit but reopened his recruitment in late February and is now back on board with the Tigers.

LSU now has 22 verbal commits for the class of 2020, with the addition of Roy.

Huge pickup for Coach O especially considering he is a D line guy and that Roy is from Louisiana he has to keep these 4* and 5* defensive lineman home.

Don’t put too much weight on those supposed “Star” ratings! Remember, Jacob Hester was a 2 star!

Honey Badger was poorly rated and our best WR, Justin Jefferson, was an after thought.

nothing better than getting talented big bodies LSU stacks the lines and we have a chance against everybody Aranda has put together all these great defenses without having a disruptive line once. Just imagine what he could do if LSU gives him a 2003, 2007, or 2011 type line.

Oh yeah, we must also sign DT Maason Smith in the 2021 recruiting class and then we will be loaded up on the defensive line for a while. To compete at the upper echelon of the SEC, a team must have a very strong defensive line and a very good QB.
