Georgia may lead for Markaviest Bryant, but he could see himself at LSU

“They just tell me they love me,” Bryant told SEC Country after Day 1 of practice at the Under Armour All-America Game.

“I love Coach O. He’s the only coach I can really say that coached me when I went to the camp. He showed me a side of coaching with him pushing me. I see that. I really see myself playing there.”

The Tigers trail Auburn and Georgia — for now — but have the opportunity to gain ground on the coveted BUCK linebacker target.

Bryant will officially visit on Jan. 20, a date he has circled on his calendar because of the intrigue of returning to Baton Rouge.

“They’re third, but when I take my official there, you never know,” Bryant said, bluntly.

“It’s not the family part; I want to see the campus and get a feeling on how I picture myself in the purple and gold. I dream of that. It’s a real big part for me, then academics. I know Coach Orgeron, and Arden Key says it all. I mean, I look just like him.”

Orgeron spearheaded Bryant’s recruitment for LSU early on, but has since passed the torch onto the linebackers coach, who made an impactful visit earlier in December.

“He came to Georgia to see me,” Bryant told SEC Country, in reference to Johnson. “It’s a seven-hour drive from where I’m at. Coach Johnson called me last night, and that’s why LSU is in the picture. During the Contact Period, he showed me some stuff, so I’m going to take my official visit to see some things I haven’t seen.”
