LSU got some unexpected news on Thursday - but it's welcomed news all the same.

Five-star offensive tackle Chidi Valentine-Okeke has shut down his process and committed to LSU.

The Tigers hosted Valentine-Okeke earlier this month, and have visited him multiple times during the open contact period.

He's ranked by 247Sports as the No. 2 offensive tackle in the class and the No. 22 overall prospect in the country.

LSU now has 19 commitments for the 2015 class. Stay tuned to Geaux247 for more on this breaking news.
