The LSU Football team signed an incredible recruiting class in the 2025 Recruiting Cycle and got every commit to sign during the Early Signing Period. While the ink dries on the recruiting class, the final player rankings are still being finalized which will in turn finalize the recruiting class rankings. Entering Thursday, LSU had signed 2 five star recruits, 15 four star recruits, and 6 three star recruits.
The Five Stars heading into the day were Cornerback DJ Pickett and Running Back Harlem Berry. The Tigers five star duo has company as Interior Offensive Line Signee Carius Curne has gotten the bump gaining five-star status in On3's Final Rankings.

Curne entered the final rankings as the 29th ranked player in the class, the 2nd ranked interior offensive lineman, and the top player out of Arkansas but, he'll finish as the 28th ranked player in the class. On3 finishes with 32 five-stars which is modeled after the NFL Draft as these 32 players are the ones projected to be first round picks out of this recruiting cycle.
LSU going into Arkansas and nabbing a player of Carius Curne's ability is as big of a recruiting win as you could get. The Tigers were able to lure the Arkansas Native into the recruiting class over the Summer and no one was ever able to flip him out of LSU's class.
The Tigers came into the offseason needing to replace four of five starters on the offensive line. After adding transfers Braelin Moore and Josh Thompson the interior offensive line is seemingly set with DJ Chester returning. Carius Curne could be an instant impact player for LSU if he can excel at tackle but, he's most likely a multi-year starter for LSU at Guard once the Tigers need to replace Moore and Thompson.
