LSU Morning Rush: Former Tigers commit has a Texas visit lined up
According to our colleagues at Longhorns Wire, former 2022 five-star safety commit Jacoby Mathews will be in Austin for this weekend’s game. Texas will play undefeated Oklahoma State. The Tigers hoping they can bring Mathews back but they have some real competition in Texas.
Even with the Oklahoma loss, one of the most important weekends in the program’s recent history is in front of Texas. From the potential to take down undefeated No. 12 Oklahoma State to a huge recruiting weekend, Steve Sarkisian needs to pull out all the stops.
You can add another big name expected to be in Austin this weekend in five-star safety Jacoby Matthews. He tweeted out he would be making the trip on Monday afternoon. In what should be an official visit, Texas will host Matthews on his first OV of the fall.
Austin, Texas this weekend🤘🏽#HookEm

Mathews had plenty of Texas attention before he ultimately pledged to LSU. They will have a chance to steal some of the thunder from the Tigers amid all the chaos going on in Baton Rouge.
One of LSU’s top targets in Arch Manning is also expected to be in Austin. As of late it seems as though the Tigers have lost any momentum on that front.
