Texarkana Pleasant Grove weak-side defensive end Landon Jackson announced his commitment to LSU on Sunday afternoon.

Jackson said on Twitter: "I would like to thank my parents, coaches, and teammates for everything they have done to allow me to be the player I am today. I would also like to thank all the college coaches who took the time to recruit me, but with that being said I am COMMITTED to Louisiana State University!!!"

He picked the Tigers over Texas A&M, Nebraska, Alabama, Arkansas, Miami, Notre Dame, Oklahoma, Texas and Washington -- all of which were in his top 10 schools.

The 6-foot-6, 240-pound prospect visited Baton Rouge in late November of last year for the Texas A&M game.

The Rivals250 prospect is the seventh commitment for the Tigers' 2021 class, joining LB Raesjon Davis, WR JoJo Earle, WR Deion Smith, S Dakota Mitchell, DT Anthony Hundley and P Peyton Todd.

Jackson is considered the 10th best weak-side defensive end in the country, 33-ranked recruit in the state of Texas and No. 216 nationally by Rivals.
