LSU football could be the team to beat for the nation’s top-rated 2022 recruit.
2022 five-star defensive end Shemar Stewart is rated by 247Sports as the No. 1 recruit in the nation, and LSU football may be the team to beat for the elite Florida native.
Stewart, 6-foot-5/236 lbs from Opa Locka, FL (Monsignor Pace), is a dynamic two-sport athlete who compiled 15 sacks in 2019 as a sophomore.
247Sports director of scouting Barton Simmons describes Stewart as a player who “controls and sheds blocks effectively against the run”.
