Five-Star TE Ahmad Hudson Commits to LSU

The in-state pledge delivers an early recruiting win for Lane Kiffin's staff.

Overview

  • Hudson, a Ruston, Louisiana standout, announced on Instagram on Sunday that he will play for LSU over Nebraska after a nationwide recruitment.
  • Rivals ranks him the No. 1 tight end and a top-20 overall recruit in the 2027 class, while 247Sports places him in the national top 20 as well.
  • His pledge gives LSU five commits in the 2027 class, with Yahoo’s LSU Wire citing a top-10 class and 247Sports listing the group No. 33 nationally and No. 11 in the SEC.
  • Hudson is also a five-star basketball prospect, and LSU has offered him a spot in hoops, though he has not said if he will play both sports.
  • He moved up his choice from a planned July timeline, keeping a premier Louisiana recruit at home and marking the first high school commitment for new tight ends coach Joe Cox.
