Joseph committed to the Tigers last June, but has since been recruited heavily by schools such as Alabama, Georgia, Florida and Florida State. LSU is still in the mix, but they aren't the favorites anymore.

The 247Sports Crystal Ball projects Joseph to commit to Alabama. The Tide offered him on June 6, and he attended camp in Tuscaloosa on July 16. The 6'2, 180-pound prospect is from Miami, and he is the No. 24 cornerback in the Class of 2018.

LSU now has 19 commits for next year's class, and only two of those are defensive backs.
