Pair of Coveted Florida Offensive Line Prospects Include LSU Football in Top Schools

Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers staff continue a busy offseason on the recruiting trail with the program looking to bring talent to Baton Rouge for the long haul.

After putting the finishing touches on the 2025 Signing Class in December, all focus has shifted towards the 2026 Recruiting Cycle with the staff turning up the heat on multiple prospects.

The month of January quickly became a stretch for the staff to hold in-person check-ins with recruits, bring prospects to campus and more.

Now, the rising-senior class is beginning to have players trim their lists and reveal top schools or programs that are "standing out" in their recruitment.

This week, the LSU Tigers were named finalists for a pair of coveted Florida offensive linemen.

The Targets to Know:

Canon Pickett: 4-Star IOL

Tampa Bay Tech (Fla.) four-star interior offensive lineman Canon Pickett continues his emergence as one of the top prospects in the Sunshine State.

Pickett, the cousin of current LSU defensive back DJ Pickett, has hauled in offers from a myriad of the top schools in the country.

Now, the 6-foot-4, 280-pounder has narrowed his focus to 10 schools: Alabama, Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Florida State, Georgia, LSU, Miami, Oklahoma and Vanderbilt.

Pickett is a Miami Hurricanes legacy with his father suiting up for the Canes in the mid-1990's while his brother also signed with the squad in the 2024 Recruiting Cycle.

Now, LSU will be looking to pull the Florida native out of the Sunshine State.

Now, Roseborough is down to 10 schools: LSU, Florida, Georgia, Ohio State, Florida State, Texas, Michigan, Texas A&M, Alabama and Penn State.
