Breaking News: 5-Star QB Therrian Alexander Decommits from BYU, Chooses LSU Over Penn State and Others
In a shocking turn of events, five-star quarterback **Therrian Alexander** has officially decommitted from **BYU** and announced his commitment to **LSU**, choosing the Tigers over other top programs, including **Penn State, Oregon, and Texas A&M**.
Alexander, a 6-foot-4, 215-pound signal-caller from California, had been committed to BYU for nearly a year. However, after receiving increased interest from powerhouse programs and taking multiple visits, the highly touted recruit decided to reopen his recruitment. His final decision came down to **LSU and Penn State**, but the opportunity to play in the SEC and work with LSU’s coaching staff ultimately sealed the deal.
“I have a ton of respect for BYU and appreciate everything they’ve done for me,” Alexander said in a statement. “But after talking with my family and coaches, I feel like LSU is the best place for me to develop and compete at the highest level.”
Alexander is ranked as the **No. 2 quarterback in the 2025 class** and is expected to be a game-changer for the Tigers. Known for his elite arm strength, mobility, and football IQ, he fits well into LSU’s offensive system and is projected to make an immediate impact.
LSU head coach **Brian Kelly** and his staff have been aggressively pursuing Alexander, making him a top priority after his decommitment from BYU. With his commitment, LSU strengthens its already impressive 2025 recruiting class, further solidifying its status as a national championship contender.
This decision is a significant loss for BYU, which had hoped to build around Alexander, but LSU fans are celebrating the arrival of their next potential superstar.
