Five-star linebacker Harold Perkins commits to LSU Tigers

Brian Kelly landed his first five-star prospect as head coach at LSU on Wednesday, when linebacker Harold Perkins committed to the Tigers.

Perkins is the No. 4 prospect overall and only recently decommitted from Texas A&M, after committing to the Aggies in the beginning of January. He is a 6-foot-3, 210-pound recruit out of Cypress Park High School in Cypress, Texas.

Perkins is the top outside linebacker in the class, and had a list of LSU, Florida and Texas A&M before choosing the Tigers.

Kelly and his staff had Perkins on campus before signing day, and having the last visit might have paid off.
