LSU Tigers football standout linebacker West Weeks has played a pivotal role in helping the LSU Tigers secure the commitment of his younger brother, junior linebacker Walker Weeks. The Weeks brothers, both from the state of Georgia, have been making waves in the college football world, and now the LSU Tigers are poised to benefit from their talents.
West Weeks, who has been a key contributor to LSU’s defense, made headlines in his sophomore season, showcasing his abilities as a versatile linebacker with a nose for the ball. As one of the Tigers’ most reliable players on defense, he has helped solidify LSU’s linebacker corps. But West’s impact is not just limited to his performance on the field; he’s also played a significant role in bringing his younger brother Walker to Baton Rouge.
Walker Weeks, a rising talent in high school football, has quickly gained attention from several top-tier college programs. However, it was West’s connection with LSU’s coaching staff and his own experiences with the program that ultimately convinced Walker to commit to the Tigers. West, who has been vocal about his love for LSU and the program’s winning culture, encouraged his younger brother to join him at LSU, where they could continue their football journey together.
“I’ve seen how great the program is here at LSU,” West said in a recent interview. “The coaches are amazing, and the team’s support system is something you won’t find anywhere else. I want my brother to experience that and make the most of his opportunity here.”
LSU head coach Brian Kelly and defensive coordinator Matt House have expressed excitement about having both brothers on the roster, knowing the dynamic they will bring to the field. Walker’s commitment adds to LSU’s already impressive recruiting class, giving fans even more to look forward to as the program builds for the future.
