Top Alabama DT Recruit Neil Farrell Commits To LSU Tigers

    The top Alabama defensive tackle recruit, Neil Farrell, committed to the LSU Tigers on Tuesday. He's LSU's 18th commitment for 2017.


    The LSU Tigers added the state of Alabama’s No. 1 DT recruit, Neil Farrell, to their 2017 class. 


    Les Miles plucked the No. 1 defensive tackle out of Alabama on Tuesday night when Neil Farrell, a 3-star prospect from Mobile, committed to the LSU Tigers.

    Farrell announced his commitment in a Tigers shirt on Twitter.

    Listed at 6-foot-4 and 293 pounds, Farrell is the second defensive tackle to commit in LSU’s 2017 recruiting class. He joins Tyler Shelvin, a four-star prospect and the nation’s No. 6 defensive tackle.

    He’s the 18th commit total for the Tigers in 2017 and third in a span of four days, joining Seth Stewart and Kary Vincent Jr., the latter of whom announced via an exclusive video with Campus Insiders.

    LSU currently sits at No. 6 in the team recruiting rankings.
