LSU Football: Top National Signing Day Targets

2. Todd Harris, 4-star Safety (Plaquemine, LA)

Todd Harris is another four-star prospect out of Louisiana the LSU Tigers have their sights locked in on. Harris is rated 86th nationally, 11th overall at his position and third best in the state of Louisiana, according to 247 Sports.

The Tigers already have two safety commits in their recruiting class. But Harris has skills in other areas like special teams that make him a standout prospect. Getting his pledge is huge from the Tigers’ standpoint as special teams is always important especially in the SEC.

Harris has taken official visits to Alabama, LSU and TCU in January. With each team having two commits already, it doesn’t look like he’s worried about early playing time. Alabama has made a lot of noise on the recruiting trail in regard to Harris.

Defensive backs coach Derrick Ansley visted the four-star safety in Louisiana back on December 7. Head coach Nick Saban and associate head coach Burton Burns visiting him in his hometown of Plaquemine on January 17. After that, Harris took an official visit to Tuscaloosa on January 20.

With another battle brewing between LSU and Alabama, National Signing Day will show who won in the end. At 6-foot and 180 pounds, Harris played safety and cornerback in high school so his position could change in the future.

Harris will make his decision on February 1.
