LSU is positioning itself as a strong competitor for top prospect Karnell 'Greedy' James, currently committed to Texas. The highly regarded safety will take an official visit to Baton Rouge this weekend, which could influence his decision given LSU's reputation for developing defensive backs. James, standing at 6 feet and 175 pounds, is ranked among the top safety prospects nationally. Despite his commitment to Texas, LSU’s late push in recruiting may present an opportunity to flip his commitment. The visit is crucial for LSU to strengthen ties with one of their primary targets.
