Huge news for LSU fans today as Jacob Phillips officially flipped his commitment from Oklahoma to LSU. I spoke with him to break down the decision.

Here's a portion:

“It was a tough decision for me but it was something I felt like was the right choice for me and my future,” Phillips said. “After visiting LSU and talking with my family we felt like it was the right place for me.”

Philips had been solid to the Sooners, but a persistent LSU coaching staff, led by head coach Ed Orgeron and assistant coach Austin Thomas persuaded him to take an extended unofficial visit last weekend. That’s when everything changed.

“I went on the visit at first not really expecting much but after going on the visit, my family and I really liked down there,” Phillips said. “It wasn’t about facilities or anything like that, but just seeing my future and putting me in the best position to achieve my goals. I prayed on it and thought on it for a while and talked about it with my family and we made the decision together.”
