LSU Recruiting Heats Up
LSU has locked an official visit for 4-star WR Tre Moore and made the top-10 for elite WR Quentin Burrell, while pushing for flips on 5-star Easton Royal and targeting prospects like Cam Wade, Julius Jones Jr., and Jayden Miles. The Tigers are making aggressive moves in the 2026 recruiting cycle.
- The push for Easton Royal involves attempting to flip a consensus 5-star prospect from rival Texas; Royal is ranked the No. 1 player in Louisiana and the No. 3 wide receiver nationally in the 2027 class. He is also an elite track athlete, having run a 10.38-second 100-meter dash. - Quentin Burrell, a top target from Chicago, is rated as the No. 9 wide receiver in the 2027 recruiting cycle. During his junior season, he recorded 67 receptions for 1,139 yards and 16 touchdowns. - The Tigers are targeting multiple out-of-state prospects, including Kentucky's Cam Wade, a 4-star receiver who has placed LSU in his final four schools. Wade is ranked as the No. 5 overall recruit in Kentucky. - Another key target, Julius Jones Jr., is a legacy recruit for one of LSU's competitors; his father was an All-American running back at Notre Dame. Jones Jr. is considered the No. 58 overall player in the 2027 class by the 247Sports Composite ranking. - In-state running back Jayden Miles attends Baton Rouge's Catholic High School, a program LSU has successfully recruited in recent years. Miles is considered a 4-star prospect and the No. 12 running back in the nation for the 2027 class, according to the 247Sports Composite. - The pursuit of Texas-based receiver Tre Moore pits LSU against more than 40 other programs that have offered the 4-star prospect. According to the 247Sports Composite, he is the No. 19 wide receiver in his class.
