BATON ROUGE, La. -- What LSU's national signing day lacked in last-minute fireworks, it more than made up for in overall effectiveness.
The Tigers added just two new players to their class on Wednesday -- No. 27 overall prospect and No. 3 cornerback Kristian Fulton and three-star offensive guard Lloyd Cushenberry -- and lost ESPN 300 outside linebacker Erick Fowler to Texas. But because of the class' top-to-bottom quality -- 19 of the 23 signees are ESPN 300 honorees, tying two Alabama classes for the most ever -- Les Miles' staff clearly filled the holes in LSU's roster.
