No. 1-ranked OT Jordan Seaton announces transfer destination

It was a long and drawn-out transfer portal process for former Colorado Buffaloes OT Jordan Seaton, but after the extended recruitment, the No. 1-rated pass-blocker has finally made his decision. 

On Friday night, Seaton announced his transfer to the LSU Tigers, choosing them over the Oregon Ducks. 

Seaton will be a huge pick up for LSU, acting as the third top-5 ranked transfer that Lane Kiffin has landed since taking over in Baton Rouge.

The Ducks were among the leaders to land Seaton out of the portal, but ultimately, he chose to go elsewhere. After the 2025 season, Oregon will have to replace both offensive tackles, with Isaiah World and Alex Harkey out of eligibility. They are expected to call on the likes of Fox Crader and Gernorris Wilson at the positions, though they also added Yale transfer Michael Bennett via the transfer portal. 

After spending the weekend in Baton Rouge with Lane Kiffin, Seaton cancelled his reported visit to Eugene, with Dan Lanning and A’lique Terry flying out to Atlanta to see him for an in-home visit. There was some buzz that this could have swung the recruitment, but in the end, it wasn’t enough to land Seaton.
