LSU football has been hot on the recruiting trail since Bayou Splash Weekend in the middle of summer and today was no exception. The Tigers landed a commitment from 4-star RB Caden Durham from Duncanville, Texas. Durham is the ninth ranked running back in the 2024 class and the 18th ranked player in the state of Texas. Before his commitment LSU did not have a single running back committed in next year's class so Durham will provide much needed depth at a position that could lose several starters after this season.
Plus, Brian Kelly's squad was out on the practice field again today and the secondary shined. Cornerback was a major concern surrounding LSU this offseason since they built almost the entire unit through the transfer portal. But today they gave the receivers trouble, specifically Syracuse transfer Duce Chestnut.
“The things that really stood out for us were he was a smart player, savvy, a sure tackler and was always around the ball,” Brian Kelly said about the former ACC standout coming into his third year of college ball.
What makes the secondary's good day even more impressive? Who they were going up against. Wide receiver Malik Nabers had several clutch catches today and his connection with starting quarterback Jayden Daniels seems to be as strong as ever. Offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock had glowing remarks of Nabers after practice today. But what does that mean for the wide receiver room and offense as a whole?
