REPORT: South Carolina Football Expected to Flip Current LSU Tigers Commitment

Tight end, initially committed to LSU, has become a hot topic as South Carolina and other programs make a push for him. The Gamecocks, led by head coach Shane Beamer, have drawn Tyler’s interest, especially with the chance to play closer to home. This weekend, Tyler will take a visit to South Carolina’s Williams-Brice Stadium, his second time there since committing to LSU, fueling predictions that he may flip his commitment to the Gamecocks for the 2025 class. Experts, including 247Sports’ Hale McGranahan and Tony Morrell, see South Carolina as a serious contender.

Despite this potential shift, LSU’s 2025 recruiting class remains stacked with some elite talent. Key commits include:

– **Bryce Underwood**: The No. 1 quarterback in America, known for his remarkable production at Belleville (Mich.) High School. Standing 6’4″ and weighing 215 pounds, Underwood has led his team to multiple state titles and is recognized for his impressive arm strength and decision-making.

– **Harlem Berry**: The top-ranked running back, measuring 5’10” and 182 pounds. Known for his speed and vision, Berry has set records in Louisiana with 4,723 all-purpose yards and 67 touchdowns over his first two seasons, alongside state track titles.

– **DJ Pickett**: Ranked as the No. 1 cornerback, Pickett is 6’4″ with a near 6’8″ wingspan, making him an imposing defensive force. His athleticism and ball skills make him highly versatile, with a unique ability to play multiple roles in secondary and coverage.

– **Derek Meadows**: A five-star wide receiver, Meadows stands at 6’6″ and 205 pounds with an 80-inch wingspan. He’s a red-zone threat with his size and track speed, and many believe he could also develop into a pass-catching tight end, a matchup nightmare for defenders.

While LSU works to keep Tyler’s commitment firm, the depth of their 2025 class remains strong, ensuring they’re poised for significant impact in the coming seasons.
