Three-star inside linebacker Zach Edwards from Starkville, MS announced Tuesday night that he has de-committed from LSU and has reopened his recruitment.

Edwards originally committed to LSU back on March 3, choosing the Tigers over Mississippi State, Ole Miss, and Texas A&M.

The 6-3, 217-pound prospect is rated a three-star prospect on 247 Sports and ESPN, and four-star on Rivals.

The de-commitment gives LSU 18 verbal commits for the class of 2019. The Tigers hold commitments from four-star linebacker Donte Starks and Marcel Brooks.

It happens. Better players commit, other players go to aTm. Happens all the time in gumpville.

Best of luck to Zach Edwards! That said, this handwriting has been on the wall for months. With Starks and McCollum, he was "encouraged" to look elsewhere. Also heard he did test well, running slow. Still, he had given his verbal and I wish him nothing but the best.

Do we really have a chance?

We’re doing ok at LB. I don’t think this one’s too crucial

RadThibodeaux•92 months

Please tell me this is one of the kids that said “I’m 110% committed unless something changes” or something to that extent? Got to love it.

IndianInBR•92 months

ScaryClown•92 months

This is why you dont get excited about recruiting June/July. He won't be the last to decommitt between now and December.

NOSTRODAMUS•92 months

“My decision” Well, no shite.

LSUstephen17•92 months

He doesn’t want to ride the pine can’t blame him

EveryoneGetsATrophy•92 months

So LSU took commitments from two other linebackers that he knows will beat him out from a starting position. Good luck to him being a starter somewhere else.

KING NOLA•92 months

I remember when his HS teammate decommitted a week after he committed it was said it was just a matter of time before LB Zach Edwards decommitted. So this comes as no surprise that he did that just opens the door and leaves a spot for a better recruit maybe Edna Karr CB Devin Bush a much, much better 4* recruit.

tbabino•92 months

and the beat goes on....shite show for nearly all these kids
