LSU has been on quite a heater to start the 2025 recruiting class, holding 11 commitments — headlined by five-stars [autotag]Bryce Underwood[/autotag] and [autotag]Caden Durham[/autotag] — in a class that ranks as high as No. 2 nationally, depending on the service.
But this is the time of year that can really make or break a class. The June official visit rush is upon us, and it’s been a busy couple of weekends in Baton Rouge for the recruiting staff.
With a strong class already in place and LSU in position to land several more blue-chippers, 247Sports is buying stock in its 2025 class at this point in the cycle.
Class Summary: No. 6 Overall | 11 Commits | 93.81 Avg. Rating
That LSU moved down just three spots and remains firmly in the top 10 of the recruiting rankings after Dakorien Moore’s decommitment is a testament to just how deep and talented this class is. Brian Kelly cemented a formidable foundation for this haul with the top-ranked overall player in star quarterback Bryce Underwood, and he may not be the only five-star prospect in this group for long. Last weekend’s official visit put the Tigers in a good spot with Kaliq Lockett, and LSU emerged as perhaps the biggest threat to flip No. 1 interior offensive lineman Soloman Thomas from Florida State.
“I think if you did a straw poll of all of us at 247Sports and we had to choose a recruiting class we’re buying stock in right now, it would be LSU,” Ivins said earlier this spring.
Landing players like [autotag]Kaliq Lockett[/autotag] or [autotag]Soloman Thomas[/autotag] would be huge, and the Tigers even seem to have gotten back on Dakorien Moore’s radar after he decommitted last month, hosting him for a seemingly productive official visit this past weekend.
There’s a long way to go between now and signing day, but the Tigers have the makings of a truly special class.
