The LSU Football team has brought in a monster recruiting class this year giving this team a great crop of young talent to help supplementing the veterans on the roster. At nearly every position, the Tigers have at least one player that's exciting to watch going forward if not several. As On3 relases it's final rankings of the recruiting cycle, the Tigers will finish with a top ten recruiting class.
The position that may have the most exciting incoming Freshmen is the Running Back position. The Tigers signed two elite In-State running backs in Four Star JT Lindsey and Five Star Harlem Berry. The headliner of the class and one of the crown jewels of LSU's recruiting class is Harlem Berry who on Thursday closed out the recruiting cycle going wire to wire as the best running back in the class according to On3.

Harlem Berry closes out the recruiting cycle as the 18th ranked player in the Country and the best running back in the class. When On3 released its first On3 300 rankings for the class, Berry debuted as the Top Running Back in the class and no one was ever able to dethrone him for the top ranking.
In recent years, the LSU Football team has struggled to find success and consistency from the rushing attack aside from Jayden Daniels. The Tigers are now placing an emphasis on the rushing attack and with Caden Durham, Harlem Berry, and JT Lindsey in the backfield the rushing attack should return to where it should be at LSU.
Toward the end of the season, Brian Kelly was involving himself in the play calling and offensive preparation looking to finding consistentcy in the run game. The Tigers hired former Florida State offensive coordinator Alex Atkins to coach the tight ends and to be the run game coordinator which should in turn help the Tigers even further in improving the rushing attack.
