The list is a who's-who of the best college football programs in America: Alabama, Ohio State, Auburn, Florida State, Oklahoma, Oregon and USC, to name a few.

Rashard Lawrence, a five-star defensive tackle from Neville (Monroe, La.), has offers from all of them, but he looks rock solid on the college of his choice: LSU. Not coincidentally, LSU has the No. 1 recruiting class in the country.

The 6-foot-3, 305-pound defensive tackle is the No. 23 recruit overall in the country, a 5-star recruit ranked the fifth-best defensive tackle overall.



Watching highlights of his top plays, it's hard to imagine four who are better.
