West Mifflin’s Nahki Johnson committed to Pitt last summer, but on Saturday night he announced an offer from the defending BCS national champion.

“Extremely blessed and humble to say I got an offer from LSU,” the rising senior wrote on Twitter.

The 6-foot-3, 220-pound defensive end committed to the Panthers in June 2019 and hasn’t shown any uncertainty about his decision.

He celebrated the one-year anniversary of his Pitt commitment with a tweet June 25 that said, “Committed a year ago today and still no regrets,” and included the Hail to Pitt hashtag #H2P.

The four-star prospect also holds offers from Penn State, Michigan, Mississippi State, Iowa State, Syracuse, Temple and Toledo, but hadn’t announced any offers since his commitment last summer.
