BREAKING NEWS – In a blockbuster recruiting development, the first-born son of an LSU Tigers legend has officially decommitted from LSU and flipped his commitment to Ohio State, reportedly accepting a record-breaking $50.5 million NIL package. The jaw-dropping deal marks one of the largest in college football history and signals a massive win for the Buckeyes on and off the field. The highly touted prospect, a five-star athlete with deep family ties to Baton Rouge, had long been seen as a lock for LSU—until now.
The unnamed NIL collective behind the offer is believed to have made an aggressive late push, emphasizing not just the financial package but Ohio State’s elite development pipeline and national exposure. “It was the hardest decision of my life,” the young star said in a statement. “LSU is in my blood, but I have to make the best choice for my future—and Ohio State gives me that.” The flip shocked not just Tiger Nation but the entire college football world, especially with the historic NIL number now in play.
The move comes at a critical time in the recruiting cycle and sends ripple effects through powerhouse programs. LSU, which had built much of its 2025 class around the legacy recruit, must now scramble to fill a massive void. Meanwhile, Georgia, USC, and Texas A&M, all considered finalists, were left stunned by Ohio State’s closing power. With this commitment, the Buckeyes further cement their reputation as a destination for both top-tier talent and bold NIL leadership.
