Big OT flips from South Carolina to LSU on signing day
The allure of staying home was too much for Lloyd Cushenberry to pass up.
Dutchtown OG Lloyd Cushenberry said he actually received his #LSU offer Sunday. Committed last night after talks w/ Miles/Cam/Lindsey Scott

A 6-foot-4, 310-pound guard from Geismar, La., Cushenberry committed to LSU on National Signing Day -- reneging on his longtime pledge to South Carolina in the process.
Les Miles had offered the big guard on Sunday night -- only a few days before signing day. A mauler in the run game, Cushenberry's physicality and sheer size will fit in nicely with LSU's run-heavy offensive scheme.
The Tigers continue to to hit the state of Louisiana hard with this 2016 class. As it currently stands, LSU has pledges from 22 prospects -- 15 of which hailing from the Pelican State.
