A pivotal visit for LSU's 2027 class
Trey Martin, a four‑star running back ranked No. 12 in the 2027 class, is scheduled to set foot on LSU's campus for an official visit. The Louisiana native previously attended a Junior Day in January, giving the Tigers a familiar foothold in his recruitment.
Coach Lane Kiffin and recruiter Andrew Ivins have been vocal about Martin's blend of speed and power, traits that fit LSU's evolving offensive scheme. His slashing style, highlighted by 247Sports, could add a dynamic element to the backfield.
The visit comes after LSU secured a commitment from three‑star Brennen Lacey, a move that underscores the program's aggressive push to bolster its running back corps. While Alabama had been the early favorite, recent momentum has shifted toward the Tigers.
Ranked 47th nationally by 247Sports, LSU's 2027 class currently sits outside the top tier, but Martin's pledge could catapult the group into a more competitive standing. His decision is viewed as a litmus test for the program's recruiting trajectory.
