LSU Tigers offensive lineman Tyler Miller has revealed a commitment to the Mississippi State Bulldogs after spending one season in Baton Rouge, according to On3 Sports.

Miller signed with the LSU program as a Top-10 interior offensive lineman in the 2025 Recruiting Cycle and one of the top overall prospects in Mississippi out of high school.

The 6-foot-5, 315-pounder took a redshirt year during his true freshman campaign with the LSU Tigers last fall where he will now return to his home-state with four seasons of eligibility where will hit the road to Starkville in 2026.

Once Lane Kiffin arrived in Baton Rouge, LSU saw seven members of the offensive line reveal intentions of departing as the trenches received a makeover with Miller now becoming the eighth to leave the program.

The former blue-chip prospect will join a Mississippi State program that continues adding reinforcements this offseason in preparation for the 2026 season.

For the LSU Tigers, the program has attacked the NCAA Transfer Portal with over 25 signees to this point - including four offensive linemen - to make up the No. 1 class in America.
