Utah typically isn’t the state where LSU football goes to recruit.
But that isn’t stopping the Tigers in their pursuit of a 2022 four-star linebacker from the Beehive State.
Lander Barton, 6-foot-4/215 lbs from Salt Lake City, UT (Brighton), is ranked in 247Sports’ composite rankings as the No. 20 outside linebacker in the country and the No.1 player in Utah.
In addition to his offer from LSU, Barton currently holds offers from Arizona State, Colorado, Michigan, Nebraska, Notre Dame, Texas, Oregon, and USC, among others.
