WATCH: LSU RB Commit Caden Durham's Elite Speed

Durham pledged to the Tigers on Thursday, provides another dynamic speedster to the 2024 class.

LSU reeled in a commitment from four-star Duncanville (Tex.) running back Caden Durham on Thursday after the Tigers beat out Oklahoma and Texas A&M for his services.

Durham will be a two-sport athlete in the purple and gold after revealing his commitment to the Tigers. Along with being the next running back in Baton Rouge, Durham will also compete in track for one of the top programs in the country.

It’s his elite-level speed that makes him so difficult to take down in open space with the ball in his hands and it’s shown against some of the top talent in the country. Duncanville plays a rigorous schedule and Durham routinely handles business due to his speed and elusiveness with the football.

The top end speed of his is what makes him such a force. The balance of speed and strength Durham attains gives defenses fits, and after leading Duncanville to a state title in 2022, LSU’s latest pledge put the offense on his back to take home some hardware.
