It may be a long time before that LSU finds another special talent like Joe Burrow and rides him all the way to a national championship. For now, though, they remain one of the toughest programs in college football, thanks in no small part to their excellent recruiting record.
During the 2023 recruiting cycle, the Tigers landed seven of the top 250 players in the class and ranked No. 6 overall in the nation. Here are the top 10 rookies in the LSU Class of 2023, according to the composite ranking.
