Oklahoma transfer WR Nic Anderson commits to LSU

Nic Anderson has a new home in the SEC after the former Oklahoma receiver transfer announced his commitment to LSU.

Anderson’s addition continues the Tigers’ transfer overhaul of its receiver room, and follows the recent commitments of former Florida State wideout Destyn Hill and former Kentucky playmaker Barion Brown.

Anderson chose LSU over transfer interest from Texas A&M and has two years of eligiblity remaining.

On3’s Pete Nakos and Shea Dixon reported this week that LSU had growing “confidence” it would land the Oklahoma transfer after his recent visit to campus. Anderson is the No. 5 wide receiver in the On3 Transfer Portal Rankings.

Anderson missed the entire 2024 campaign with a nagging quad injury suffered before the season, but proved his merit with a monster 2023.

As a second-year player in 2023, Anderson recorded 31 catches for 798 yards and 10 touchdowns. He averaged a whopping 21.0 yards per reception, proving to be a remarkably explosive threat.

Prior to enrolling at Oklahoma, Anderson was ranked as a four-star prospect and the No. 200 overall recruit in the nation in the 2022 recruiting class, according to On3’s Industry Rankings, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies.. He also checked in as the No. 34 receiver in the class and the No. 33 overall player from the state of Texas, hailing from Katy.
