LSU is battling for the nation's No. 1 DT, the top recruit in Texas in Marvin Wilson.

LSU moved into the Top10 of the 247Sports Recruiting Rankings as the Bayou Picnic Thread paid off this weekend and most likely will also help down the road.

With that the Tigers aim to sign a Top10 class for a fifth year in a row.

LSU No. 3 in 2016

LSU No. 2 in 2014

LSU No. 6 in 2013

The last 24 hours has been real exciting.

Friday the nation’s No. 10 offensive tackle in Austin Deculus committed to LSU over an offer list that included Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Texas A&M and USC. The No. 5 ranked recruit in Texas, the 6-foot-6, 310-pound Deculus better projects as a guard, has a huge frame and with that and his really good feet and athleticism has tremendous upside at the point of attack.

The nation’s No. 1 JUCO receiver, the country’s No. 3 recruit overall in Stephen Guidry started the Saturday fireworks with a verbal in the afternoon choosing the Tigers over rival Alabama. Instant impact at 6-foot-4, 190-pounds Guidry’s combination of speed and ball skills makes him such a coveted prospect, a deep threat and major red-zone factor.

Capping the fantastic 24-hour span was fullback Tory Carter who pulled the trigger in the early evening bringing LSU’s class to 10 total, good for No. 10 in the country. Standing in at 6-foot-1, 258-pounds, Carter plays so low on film as a defensive lineman that’s actually what makes him so exciting as the fullback target he is for Les Miles and company. He explodes through people as a striker, he’s a people mover with the leverage and strength he plays with.

Prediction for the next LSU verbal is Madison (La.) Ridgeland Academy two-way lineman Saahdiq Charles who projects as another athletic interior offensive lineman in Baton Rouge. Put Charles on the front line with Deculus and Edward Ingram and that's a big, nasty, athletic, physical group. I wrote this about Charles when he committed in April.

"LSU hit on one of the country's more college ready offensive linemen in DeSoto (Texas) High's Top247 offensive guard Edward Ingram. The 6-foot-4, 325-pound Ingram, is big, thick, agile and physical. Gets to the second level quickly, has good feet, I really like this get for the Tigers. 247Sports ranks Ingram as the nation's (No. 8) offensive guard and that could be too low."

Ingram could play center, guard or right tackle. He's that good.

With that, it also looks like LSU will push for No. 1 leading up to National Signing Day.

As of today, four big-timers I feel good about LSU finishing with include…

The folks I talked to at Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy believe five-star linebacker Dylan Moses will end up at LSU but obviously Alabama is very much in the picture.

I made a 247Sports Crystal Ball forecast in favor of LSU for the nation’s No. 1 defensive tackle Marvin Wilson after talking with a source with knowledge of the situation Sunday, but no question Alabama and Florida State are right there in great position to sign the Lone Star State’s best this cycle. Wilson along with fellow five-star and LSU commit Tyler Shelvin, the nation’s No. 2 defensive tackle in 2017 and it’s not fair, especially when you hit on Rashard Lawrence like the Tigers did the cycle before.

I added 247Sports Crystal Ball forecasts for the Tigers regarding the nation’s No. 4 safety per 247Sports in Grant Delpit and the country’s No. 5 safety in Todd Harris. I saw Delpit in Las Vegas back in February at the Pylon 7-on-7 National Championships and thought he was a special talent in the secondary.

Eyeing what else could be part of a special finish, you also have the nation’s No. 1 JUCO strong-side defensive end Isaiah Buggs and Top247 offensive tackle Adrian Ealy among others.
