New offensive line coach Brad Davis secured his first big recruiting win for LSU as four-star guard Emory Jones pledged to the Tigers Friday evening.
Jones made the announcement through a YouTube video that featured his future LSU teammates, five-stars Walker Howard (quarterback, St. Thomas More) and Will Campbell (offensive tackle, Neville).
Jones, from nearby Catholic High, is a top-200 prospect nationally and the No. 9 interior offensive linemen. Jones gives LSU three offensive linemen in its 2022 recruiting class and technically fourth seeing as Lafayette Christian Academy’s Fitzgerald West, listed as a defensive tackle, will play center upon his arrival next year.
