The LSU recruiting trail effort continues its sizzling pace with the fourth pledge for the 2019 class in the past five days.

Dreshun Miller, a top three ranked cornerback in the JUCO ranks, felt the urge to become a Tiger and gave his verbal pledge to the LSU staff following a Saturday camp workout. Miller received his LSU offer on April 30. Houston and Texas Tech gave the other offers he considered.

Miller, 6-foot-2 and 175 pounds, originally signed with Coastal Carolina out of Sprayberry High in Georgia but the Louisiana native ended up at Eastern Arizona College.

LSU safeties coach Bill Busch was instrumental in recruiting Miller, who skilled enough to line up at corner, safety and nickel. He comes out his break flawlessly, showing good ball skills and reactions. Miller finds the ball in flight very quickly and is physical as a tackler.

Miller is the 16th commitment for LSU for the ’19 class, which includes a trio of elite cornerbacks with 4 star ratings plus one 5 star, Dunham’s Derek Singley.

Last season, Miller recorded 41 stops including three tackles for loss and one interception that he ran back for a touchdown.
