NCAA Transfer News: Texas’ Quarterback Commits to LSU Tigers Deal

LSU hopes to unseat a new football commitment from Michigan
Although Phillip Wright recently committed to play football for Michigan, it doesn’t seem like LSU will give up on the wideout so quickly.
Rankings are important. They do not, however, present the complete picture. Despite now ranking last among Michigan football’s commits, Phillip Wright, a 2025 class pledge, is one of my top targets.

Wright, though, has been ascending. Prior to committing to Michigan football, his ranking was below the top 500. According to the 247 Sports composite rankings, he is now rated No. 428 overall.

From Louisiana, it is not difficult to understand Wright’s ascent. In the 100-meter dash, he ran in 10.46. Similar to Jasper Parker, he was underappreciated in Louisiana before LSU elevated him to a priority, which worries Michigan football.

LSU attempting to deceive a football commitment from Michigan
In the process of acquiring Derek Meadows, a top-100 wide receiver out of Bishop Gorman in Las Vegas, the Tigers defeated the Wolverines. Shea Dixon of the LSU On3 website, The Bengal Tiger, claims that LSU is still pursuing Wright and may be moving closer to a flip. Nevertheless, the Tigers have lost out on a few other talents.

The story claims that LSU is attempting to bring Wright to campus for its end-of-July recruiting event. A flip is a serious worry if that occurs. Similar to Parker, LSU’s lack of interest had a role in Michigan’s ability to get Wright’s pledge, at least in part.
