KansasHowever, LSU continued pursuing the talented linebacker throughout his senior season, and the Tigers eventually won his recruitment. Following that visit, he decided to change his commitment and join the Tigers.
One of the biggest factors behind Hudson's decision was his connection to Louisiana. Although he has played his high school football in Texas, Hudson has family roots in Louisiana, and his family has supported LSU for years.
In an interview with TigerBait, Hudson explained that his family has always been big fans of the Tigers and that the opportunity to return to his home state played a major role in his decision. He also discussed the importance of being closer to his family, allowing them to attend his games more frequently.
