The LSU football staff is dialed in on the recruiting trail with cornerbacks coach Corey Raymond making noise over the last few weeks.

Despite only being on LSU’s staff for roughly a month, Raymond has brought in several coveted defensive backs for visits.

Now, the dust has settled and the Bayou Bengals have begun chipping away at a few prized targets.

Pickett made his way to Baton Rouge on Jan. 30 for a multi-day stay with Corey Raymond and Co.
