LSU added to its future quarterback room Friday when Walker Howard from the Class of 2022 announced his commitment to the Tigers.

Howard is a 6-foot-1, 185-pound QB from St. Thomas More High School in Lafayette, Louisiana, and held offers from Alabama, Arizona State, Baylor, Nebraska, Ole Miss, Penn State, TCU and Texas A&M among a few others.

"During quarantine, I was thinking a lot, and my dad and I sat down and talked about where I would be happiest," Howard said. "Where do I see myself living the next four to five years, and I'm a big family guy, so I wanted to stay close to my family. So why not make my decision now and start recruiting my class."
