Ahead of the ReliaQuest Bowl against Wisconsin, it seems a member of LSU’s 2023 signing class has made a position change.
Receiver Khai Prean, a former four-star recruit from Saint James, has moved to cornerback. He also changed his jersey number from No. 82 to No. 28.
Prean was listed as an athlete as a recruit, ranking just outside the top 400 nationally. He played on both sides of the ball in high school, and he was listed on LSU’s depth chart as a cornerback ahead of the matchup against the Badgers.
He will take a redshirt this season as he hasn’t appeared in a game, but he could potentially make his debut in the game against the Badgers.
Freshman Khai Prean switched from wide receiver to corner during bowl practice. He’s wearing No. 28 now.

Prean will help provide added depth in 2024 at a position where the Tigers really need it. Outside of veteran Zy Alexander, the team is likely to rely heavily on young players in the secondary next fall.
