2021
Landyn Watson – DE – Hutto (TX) Hutto: Watson is a 6’3″, 235 lb. prospect with offers from Arkansas, Michigan, Texas Tech, and Virginia Tech. He’s a 4-star, the #16 weakside end, and #294 overall. He has 50% of crystal balls for LSU, but the Tigers don’t seem to be a serious option right now.
Jah-mal Williams – DE – Fort Lauderdale (FL) Cardinal Gibbons: Williams is a 6’4″, 215-pounder whose only offer I know of comes from the Wolverines.
