Decision looming: Missing out on No. 1 offensive lineman would be crushing for Brian Kelly
LSU v Florida | James Gilbert/GettyImagesThe top-ranked interior offensive lineman in the 2026 Recruiting Cycle is nearing a decision. Five-star offensive lineman Darius Gray is set to make his decision tomorrow, Friday, August 22.
The highly-coveted recruit is set to choose between the LSU Tigers, South Carolina Gamecocks, Tennessee Volunteers, Ohio State Buckeyes, and Clemson Tigers. With his decision looming, reports earlier this week indicated that Gray was going back and forth between LSU and South Carolina.
Now, recruiting experts are predicting that the 6-foot-3, 285-pound lineman will head to Columbia over Baton Rouge.
Missing out on Gray would be a big disappointment for Brian Kelly
