Longtime four-star quarterback Myles Brennan has reopened his recruitment process, the Mississippi native announced on Twitter.
Brennan is the 10th ranked pro-style quarterback in the 2017 class according to 247sports.com. The longtime LSU commitment reopened his recruitment one day after LSU offered four-star quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who is currently an Alabama commitment.
The 6-foot-3, 180-pound signal caller, Brennan, was offered by Oklahoma State on Tuesday.
Brennan was one of two quarterback commitments in LSU’s 2017 class beside St. James High School’s signal caller Lowell Narcisse.
Narcisse is ranked as four-star by 247sports and is listed as the sixth-ranked dual-threat quarterback, according to the recruiting website.
Brennan cited LSU’s transition on offense as reason for him to reopen his recruitment.

Here’s what Ed Orgeron said about LSU’s transitioning offense at his introductory news conference Saturday:
“We’re going to look at recruiting the best offensive coordinator in football and bring him to LSU. I do believe that nowadays you have to run the spread offense. You have to have dual-threat quarterbacks that can run the ball and throw it. But you have to have somebody who knows how to run it.
“We still want to be a physical football team. We have great backs at LSU. We have one of the best backs in the country coming back next year in Derrius Guice. We’re going to recruit some of the best backs in the country. We have some great backs on our team that we haven’t played so we have to use those guys. We want to use our skill sets. We want to use our tight ends, throwing the football like we did in our last game.
“We have a blueprint. I have a mindset on what we’re going to go get, who we’re going to go get, we’re going to go get it.”
