LSU is in the middle of a busy OV weekend which includes hosting Texas WR Jelani Watkins, who has ties to Louisiana, along with Texas RB Caden Durham, who is spending all weekend on campus as an unofficial. Meaning LSU will try to get him in for an OV during the fall. Both of these Texas speedsters also hold offers from the LSU track program.
It seems that the Tigers have led behind the scenes for Watkins for a bit now and everything I’ve heard leads me to believe he picks the Tigers when he’s ready to announce. I put in a new FutureCast on him to LSU.
Back to Durham, who just visited Oklahoma last weekend. All the momentum after that visit pointed to the Sooners, but an interesting note to keep an eye on. The Sooners are looking for a 1-2 combo at RB of Durham and Taylor Tatum, whilst Frank Wilson has been 100 percent clear with Durham that he is the ONLY back they want in this class. We’ll see what happens with him later this fall.
