This Spring has started out perfectly for the LSU Football program on the recruiting trail. The month of March has seen LSU nab the Nation's top wide receiver recruit Tristen Keys, Louisiana's top ranked wide receiver Jabari Mack, and elite defensive back Dylan Purter. March has sent LSU skyrocketing up the recruiting rankings as the Tigers now hold the Nation's top class.

As LSU continues to trend for several top recruits while also being named for other elite playmakers, LSU is only looking to add to what's shaping up to be an incredible recruiting class. This weekend, Corey Raymond is looking to make a push as he hosts elite cornerback recruit Khary Adams on an unofficial visit.

Khary Adams is one of the most sought after players in the 2026 recruiting class as On3 ranks him as the Nation's 30th ranked player, the 4th ranked cornerback in the class, and the 3rd ranked player out of Maryland. Maryland is proving to be a crucial recruiting battleground for LSU in the 2026 class as LSU will try to nab Khary Adams while they're also one of the seven finalists for the Nation's second ranked recruit, Immanuel Iheanacho.

While LSU hasn't landed a commitment from a cornerback in this recruiting cycle, the Tigers and Corey Raymond seem poised to nab a commitment soon. LSU has been given an On3 prediction to land In-State recruit Dez Ellis, who's being recruited as a cornerback, while LSU has been pushing for Havon Finney Jr.

As Corey Raymond has returned to LSU, the Tigers will be in the mix for any cornerback they go after with Raymond's track record of development. Last recruiting cycle saw LSU nab the Nation's top ranked cornerback, DJ Pickett, and in this cycle, LSU is positioning itself nicely with several of the top cornerback recruits.
