We have had some great ones but yes Hezly will be the first Olympic gold medalist to compete for LSU gymnastics
This is big time for this program

I'm not really a gymnastics fan, but this is HUGE!

Livvy Dunne's NIL success and New Jersey connection were likely important. Rivera is originally from NJ as well.

The LSU brand continues to cook

Awesome pickup! She trained with Livvy in NJ back in the day. Currently, she trains at the same gym as Konnor McClain in Plano.

Unbelievable commitment! Tigerbait 357 any inside info on why she chose LSU youre able to share?

Probably because Garrett Griffeth is a genius recruiter.

Garrett is a great recruiter but Jay has been working her and her family pretty hard the last few years. She has some strong connections to a few LSU gymnasts.
She is an Olympian and LSUs NIL and exposure is a game changer for her financially with her branding etc.

She's an Olympic medalist, she's gonna print money wherever she goes, I seriously doubt NIL was one of the main considerations.

Never said it was the main reason at all but was talking about what went into her decision and some of the factors

Great for LSU! It’s just kind of odd though that you can win the top honor in the sport…then go compete at a lower level.
It would be like the Masters champ signing to play golf at LSU
