BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - LSU has landed commitments from four players during college basketball's early signing period.
The Tigers received papers from Matt Derenbecker, Andre Stringer, Jalen Courtney and Ralston Turner.
Derenbecker is a 6-foot-7 forward from Metairie who led Country Day High School to a state championship. Courtney is a 6-8 forward from Jackson, Miss., whose Provine High School also won state titles. Stringer is a 5-9 point guard from Jackson and was named Mississippi Mr. Basketball for 2009. Turner is a 6-6 shooting guard from Muscle Shoals, Ala.
LSU head coach Trent Johnson says Turner might be the best recruit in all of Alabama and that the addition of the four players should mean a bright future for the Tigers.
