Louisiana does not often have the best 100 offensive tackle possibilities, and LSU coach Ed Orgeron and the Tigers made sure not to miss a chance to take one of them.
On Saturday night, Neville High (Monroe) offensive tackle Will Campbell ended its recruitment process and committed to LSU through a double-digit offer list that also included teams like Alabama, Oklahoma, Notre Dame and more.
Campbell is LSU’s first offensive tackle commitment for the 2022 recruiting class, and he is currently ranked by the 247Sports Composite as the potential 56 in the country, the 6th offensive tackle and the second recruiting in Louisiana, behind only others. LSU appointments and St. Thomas More quarterback Walker Howard. At 247Sports, Campbell is ranked as the No. 1 prospect in Louisiana, 5th in the country’s offensive attack field and 45th overall in the category.
And with another year until National Signature Day, Campbell is the best-rated offensive striker to leave Louisiana since Cam Robinson of West Monroe in the 2014 class. Before Robinson, La’el Collins was the offensive tackle prospect with best ranking outside Louisiana as part of a deep class of 2011. Robinson and Collins are now NFL beginners after successful university careers, and both ended up with five stars in the 247Sports Composite ranking.
