WATCH: 5-star LSU commit Kardell Thomas ready to square up at The Opening

LSU OG commit Kardell Thomas (Baton Rouge, La.) is competing at the prestigious high school camp The Opening this weekend.

The camp began Saturday at Arlington’s AT&T Stadium for the first time in the event’s history, and it’s scheduled to conclude on July 3rd. Thomas, the nation’s No. 1 ranked OG prospect for the class of 2019, is there and competing against the nation’s best. It’s hard to miss the 6-foot-3, 356-pound mammoth, too.

The Athletic’s Max Olson shared a video via Twitter that showed Thomas “ready to brawl if necessary.” That’s probably a stretch, but it was certainly an entertaining rep, nonetheless. When you’re a 5-star prospect, you have to keep impressing talent evaluators in order to keep that 5th star, and he’s just making sure everyone knows he means business … with a little swag.

Thomas has been committed to LSU since July 2016, and he’s ranked as the nation’s No. 18 overall prospect and the state of Louisiana’s No. 3 overall prospect, according to 247Sports Composite Rankings.
