LSU 4-star receiver target Cortez Mills commits to Oklahoma

LSU is looking to add to its receiver class after losing a commitment from five-star receiver Dakorien Moore back in May, but that search will continue after one of its targets committed elsewhere on Monday.

Cortez Mills, a four-star receiver from Homestead, Florida, announced his commitment to Oklahoma on its first official day as a member of the SEC. Mills ranks as the No. 88 player nationally and No. 12 receiver according to the 247Sports composite, and his decision doesn’t exactly come as a surprise.

The Sooners received multiple predictions to land him in the leadup to his decision day. LSU was seen as a long shot here despite being a finalist.

Even with Mills off the board, LSU remains in the mix for some top players at the position, including five-star Jacksonville, Florida, receiver Jaime Ffrench and Moore, who the Tigers continue to try to bring back into the fold.
