Top-ranked RB John Emery commits to in-state LSU
John Emery, the No. 14-ranked prospect in the class of 2019, is staying home for college.
The 5-foot-11, 202-pound top-ranked running back committed to in-state LSU on Tuesday night, less than a month after backing off a pledge to defending SEC champion Georgia.

Emery, the No. 2-ranked prospect in the Pelican State, originally committed to the Bulldogs in late July over Mississippi State, LSU, Florida State and many of the nation's most decorated programs. Emery had been on the campuses of LSU, Georgia and Tennessee, where his father played, this season before announcing his commitment Tuesday.
