Last year the Tigers line was a solid but unspectacular group, with veterans adding stability while younger players showing some flashes of brilliance. On a defense that was rather underwhelming the defensive line play was not horrible. However, not horrible and solid are not the ways LSU wants the defensive line to be recognized. The Tiger line needs to be an elite unit. One of the players that can hopefully raise that bar is Landon Jackson
The Story
At one point Jackson was a top-50 prospect and although he eventually ended up as a top-150 prospect, he was still one of the most highly sought after players in the country, being named a Pre-season MaxPreps second team All-American as a senior.
