LSU went from battling OSU for the #1 WR class in 2020 to now seemingly falling apart. As was mentioned in a forum post earlier, Rakim Jarrett opted to stay closer to home and flipped to Maryland - he was their top WR commit. Now, Jermaine Burton, the 8th ranked receiver in the country and 3rd highest rated in their WR class (including Jarrett), is trending towards Georgia. He is out of California so he would actually be going further away from home so that reasoning is out.  Are WRs realizing without their savior, Burrow, they have four freshman and one sophomore at QB (add a year to each I suppose) and assuming they return to being a good but not elite football team?  Maybe some coaching changes happening (doubt it)? 

A flip from Burton would bring Georgia 3 top 15 WRs for this class and LSU would go from 3 top 15 WRs to just 1 in a matter of hours. Tough early signing day for them. 

For those who wish to see his recruiting profile: https://247sports.com/Player/Jermaine-Burton-46039009/

He will be signing at 3:30 today
