Offensive tackle Luke Work commits to Mississippi State football, Zach Arnett

STARKVILLE — Mississippi State football has been rolling on the recruiting trail since Thursday's Big Dawg Clinic. Luke Work, another participant from the camp, announced Friday that he has committed to MSU.

Work (6-foot-6, 285 pounds) is a three-star offensive tackle, according to the 247Sports Composite rankings. As a prospect out of Lausanne Collegiate School in Memphis, Work is the No. 40 player out of Tennessee.

He collected offers from Purdue, Arkansas State and Army, among others.

Work is the seventh commit in Mississippi State's upcoming class. He joins fellow three-star TJ Lockhart out of Winona, Mississippi, as the lone offensive tackle commits for coach Zach Arnett.

Arnett was promoted from defensive coordinator to head coach in December following Mike Leach's death. After winning the ReliaQuest Bowl shortly after, Arnett started making changes to his staff. Among those departing was offensive line coach Mason Miller who eventually was hired as Tarleton State's offensive coordinator.

Arnett hired Will Friend (offensive line) and Mike Schmidt (tight ends/tackles) to fill the role.
