NEW ORLEANS (WGNO) — The Class of 2022 kicked off the early signing period on Wednesday morning, with some of the most highly sought-after football players putting their names to paper belonging to the Edna Karr Cougars.

Wide receiver Aaron Anderson, who recently recommitted from LSU following the firing of former head coach Ed Orgeron, officially signed with Nick Saban’s Alabama Crimson Tide, despite a last-minute push by new Tigers’ coach Brian Kelly.
