LSU’s top uncommitted player on their 2025 recruiting board, DJ Pickett, is set to make a decision within the next two weeks. The five-star safety from Zephyrhills, Florida, and the No. 1 defensive back in the country will announce his choice on July 17. His final four schools are LSU, Georgia, Oregon, and Miami.
On3 ranks Pickett as the No. 6 player in the nation and the top player in Florida. LSU hosted him for an official visit on May 31, and at one point, it seemed like momentum was in their favor. However, after visiting his other finalists, the race for Pickett is now wide open.
There are no crystal ball projections for Pickett’s decision. While LSU is slightly ahead in the On3 recruiting prediction machine, Miami and Oregon are still in the running for this highly sought-after recruit. LSU Tigers Wire will continue to provide updates on Pickett’s decision and other Louisiana State news and opinions.
