LSU Secures K.J. Green and Three More Weekend Commits

Official-visit pledges have given Lane Kiffin’s first full high-school recruiting cycle momentum and pushed LSU up several composite ranking lists.

Overview

  • K.J. Green committed to LSU after an official visit to Baton Rouge, choosing the Tigers over finalists that included Oregon, Georgia and South Carolina and holding an Alabama offer.
  • Running back Brennen Lacy announced his pledge via social media following his weekend visit, becoming the first RB in LSU’s 2027 class and contributing to a near-term ranking gain.
  • Cornerback Markez Davis followed with a commitment after his official visit, keeping a top Louisiana prospect in-state and addressing the secondary need in the class.
  • The trio of pledges produced measurable moves in composite rankings, with LSU rising in 247Sports and other services as the staff parlayed official visits into conversions.
  • Kiffin’s staff still has an unfinished class to build and must defend existing pledges and chase remaining targets, but the weekend haul plugged a defensive hole left by a recent decommit and signaled growing momentum.
