This weekend is a massive weekend for recruiting in College Football as some schools host recruits and transfers on visits while 7 on 7 events and camps are underway for underclassmen as the High School season has come to an end. The wide receivers are the headline of the weekend as LSU is currently hosting four-star wide receiver commit Kenny Darby who's a part of the 2026 recruiting class.
The biggest news of the weekend however has come from the 2027 recruiting class as LSU starts to build out its recruiting board. LSU started the weekend offering five-star edge rusher KJ Green jumping into the race for the elite recruit. The Tigers also may have got some positive news as Quarterback Trae Taylor wore an LSU towel to the Battle 7 on 7 event.
Attending Battle 7 on 7 is also the Top Ranked Wide Receiver in the 2027 recruiting class Ethan Feaster. While impressing at the event, Feaster also gave insight into his recruitment speaking highly of LSU.

Feaster isn't a new name to the staff as LSU's staff offered him in 2023 when Feaster was a True Freshman in High School. Ever since offering Feaster, the staff has done their best to stay in Front of Feaster hosting him this fall and for the Spring game.

This Spring, LSU will look to get Ethan Feaster back on campus as they look to stay in the mix for On3's 10th ranked player in the 2027 class, the top wide receiver, and the top player out of Texas.
The Tigers should only start to have a better pitch to top wide receivers as Justin Jefferson, Ja'Marr Chase, Brian Thomas Jr, and Malik Nabers dominate the NFL. The biggest piece in recruiting wide receivers will be having a long term plan at quarterback which makes it important that LSU either lands a 2026 quarterback soon or that they land one of the best quarterbacks in the 2027 class.
