LSU Lands Five-Star Center Caroline Bradley, No. 3 Recruit in 2027 Class

The in-state pledge signals recruiting traction for Kim Mulkey after recent staff turnover.

Overview

  • Bradley, a 6-foot-5 post from Oak Grove, Louisiana, committed to LSU on Monday during a family crawfish boil announcement.
  • Her pledge gives Kim Mulkey her first commit in the 2027 class and the first five-star to come off the board in this cycle.
  • ESPN ranks her No. 3 nationally and the top center, and she owns USA Basketball experience with a U16 gold and an expected U17 World Cup run in July.
  • She cited a long relationship with Mulkey, a clear style fit and the chance to represent her home state as key reasons for her choice.
  • The decision follows staff changes at LSU that saw assistants Gary Redus and Daphne Mitchell leave for Rutgers and Miami associate head coach Fitzroy Anthony join the Tigers.
