LSU’s 2027 Football Recruiting Class Climbs to No. 10 in Rivals Rankings

Nine June commitments, highlighted by five‑star prospects K.J. Green and Ahmad Hudson, lift the Tigers in the national rankings

LSU's 2027 football recruiting class has secured nine verbal commitments in June, catapulting the Tigers to the No. 10 position in the Rivals industry rankings.

A class on the rise

The class features two five‑star prospects — edge rusher K.J. Green and tight end Ahmad Hudson — along with nine four‑star recruits, underscoring the depth of the haul.

Five of the pledges hail from Louisiana, a region colloquially known as "The Boot," including Ahmad Hudson from Ruston, Peyton Houston from Shreveport, Markez Davis from Opelousas, Braylon Calais from Cecilia and Trey Martin from Winnsboro.

Beyond the state, the commitments span a national footprint, reflecting LSU's expansive reach in the 2027 talent market.

The surge in commitments also draws attention from other high‑profile coaches, such as Lane Kiffin, who has highlighted Green and Hudson as standout prospects.
