BATON ROUGE ― LSU football has got its head coach.
And now it is time for Lane Kiffin to go get his first signing class as LSU's head coach. Kiffin has officially been on board with the Tigers since Sunday, so just three days prior to the NCAA early signing period opens Wednesday but he told reporters at his introductory press conference Monday that hopping on the recruiting trail was his top priority.
Kiffin was seen with No. 1 high school player in Louisiana and No. 2 overall player in the 247Sports composite, defensive lineman Lamar Brown, at LSU's football operations building Sunday night shortly after he arrived in Baton Rouge.

"That is our number one focus right now is to sign the best class that we possibly can Wednesday," Kiffin said.
Six assistants make the leap with Kiffin from Ole Miss to LSU, including offensive coordinator Charlie Weis Jr. so Kiffin has some staff with him to help close out the early signing period.
As it stands, LSU currently ranks 12th in the recruiting rankings with 15 commits.
