LSU football is ON FIRE on the recruiting trail – breaking down the Tigers' newest defensive weapons

Summary: The biggest fireworks over 4th of July weekend didn't come from a parade, barbecue, or downtown celebration. Rather, they came from LSU football's recruiting. Brian Kelly & Co. are red hot on the recruiting trail and they have five recruits in four days to show for it. Darron Reed a defensive lineman out of Georgia, defensive lineman Dashawn Womack out of Baltimore, edge rusher Joshua Mickens out of Indianapolis, Jaxon Howard the edge rusher out of Minneapolis, and in-state cornerback Ashton Stamps from Metairie all pledged their commitment to the purple-and-gold over the weekend. What are their talents? Why LSU? Caroline Fenton breaks it all down. Plus, who is the man behind all of the defensive recruits? Of course head coach Brian Kelly and defensive coordinator Matt House are at the forefront of the deals, but defensive line coach Jamar Cain has proven that he has the attention and interest of some of the top defensive line talent in the country. But can he prove it on the football field? Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!
