LSU coaches watching Texas Five-Star Plus+ WR commit Easton Royal

Easton Royal, a Five-Star Plus+ wide receiver from Brother Martin in New Orleans, has been the talk of the town in college football as he remains a highly coveted prospect. Despite committing to Texas in November of last year, Royal has maintained his options open and has been actively touring this fall. LSU has been relentless in their pursuit to turn Royal and bring him back to The Boot.

LSU's interest in Royal intensified following the arrival of Lane Kiffin as their head coach. The Tigers have been actively involved in Royal's recruitment journey, with both receivers coach George McDonald and head coach Ed Orgeron in attendance for Royal's game against Edna Karr on Friday night in Hammond. The LSU coaching staff hopes to capitalize on the opportunity to flip Royal and secure his commitment to the SEC program.

In addition to LSU, Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian is also expected to be in Hammond to witness Royal's performance on the field. Royal has made it clear that he values the local SEC program, reinforcing LSU's belief that they can still secure his commitment.
