LSU secures commitment from highly rated defensive tackle Zion Williams

LSU had an exciting start to July 4th with a big commitment from Class of 2025 four-star defensive tackle Zion Williams from Lufkin, Texas. Williams announced his pledge to the Tigers early in the morning, adding literal and figurative fireworks to the day. Standing at 6-foot-4 and 330-pounds, Williams is ranked as the No. 20 defensive tackle in his class.

Williams had offers from top programs like Texas, Alabama, Georgia, Texas A&M, USC, Florida, TCU, and Arkansas but ultimately chose LSU. He becomes the latest addition to a strong LSU recruiting class that now has 13 commitments, with all but one being four-star prospects or higher. The Tigers’ recruiting class is currently ranked at No. 11 in the Recruiting Team Rankings, despite having the fewest commitments among the top-11 teams.

Joining fellow defensive lineman LaJesse Harrold, Williams adds depth to the Tigers’ defense in the 2025 recruiting haul. While LSU has primarily focused on offensive players so far in this cycle, with commitments from nine offensive prospects compared to four defensive, Williams’ commitment adds strength to the defensive side of the ball.
