NC State, Syracuse make the top 6 for 2021 OL prospect Lyndon Cooper

Lyndon Cooper, one of the top offensive guard prospects in the state of Georgia, has announced his top six programs. Among the half-dozen teams Cooper’s considering, two are on the Power Five level, both in the ACC: NC State and Syracuse.

The 6-foot-3, 315-pound Cooper, who plays for Carrollton (GA) High, made the announcement on his own Twitter account.

A 3-star prospect, Cooper projects out as an NC State commit, per Rivals. Currently, NC State has 15 commits for its 2021 recruiting class (No. 30 in the FBS); of that group, two are offensive line prospects: Jaleel Davis and Thornton Gentry.

East Carolina, Troy, Charlotte and Texas State are in the mix, too.
