Four-star LSU commit shuts down recruitment, affirms pledge
LSU is as hot as anyone in the country on the recruiting trail right now. It’s been a strong couple of months for the Tigers. A key addition during the stretch was the commitment of four-star pass rusher Damien Shanklin.
Shanklin, out of Indiana, committed to LSU on July 5. According to 247Sports, he’s the No. 5 ranked EDGE in his class. On3’s Industry Rankings slate Shanklin as a top 100 overall prospect, one of seven top 100 players in LSU’s class.
More good news came for LSU earlier this week with Shanklin officially shutting down his recruitment.
“I will be closing my recruiting I’m 1000% committed,” Shanklin wrote in a social media post.
Shanklin wasn’t the only blue-chip EDGE LSU added in recent weeks. Shanklin was joined by LaJesse Harrold, who ranks top 10 at the position per On3 and 247Sports.
The 247Sports scouting report writes that Shanklin projects as a multi-year starter with NFL potential.
“Plays with strong hands at the point of attack and can disengage quickly to chase down ball carriers,” Hudson Standish of 247Sports wrote.

I knew it was only a matter of time before Bo Davis and Peoples started working their magic. The D line will be a machine if we can keep those two guys around for a decent amount of time.

The stars are lining up. Stay with us 3 yrs or more big fella. You'll make some now and a lot later in the league.

In this day & age, I won't feel comfortable until he "re-affirms" his commitment the night before Early Signing Day.

I'd feel better if he was 10005% committed

This is the typical disaster syndrome that the rest of college football makes fun of us for.

Shanklin is a huge get. He can be big time. The multiple d linemen we have committed really need to be hits instead of misses.
