Former Notre Dame RB Logan Diggs commits to LSU
LSU coach Brian Kelly continues to make effective use of the transfer portal.
The Tigers saw no players depart following spring practice, and now they’ve added a veteran to the running back room in former Notre Dame tailback Logan Diggs. A native of Boutte, Louisiana, Diggs reunites with Kelly, who recruited him to South Bend and coached him for one season.
Diggs is a nice addition to a running back group that already boasts some talent. He led Fighting Irish backs in carries last fall with 165, and he finished second on the team with 821 rushing yards. He also had four touchdowns on the ground.

Kelly has made it a point to recruit transfers with ties to the state of Louisiana, and he adds a player in Diggs who has two remaining seasons of eligibility plus a redshirt year.
He’ll join a talented group of backs that returns Armoni Goodwin, Josh Williams and Noah Cain. The former two were injured during spring ball allowing the latter to see a lot of the reps. True freshman Trey Holly also made an impact, and another true freshman in Kaleb Jackson is set to enroll this summer.
