LSU will welcome a surprise visitor to Death Valley for Saturday’s game against Oklahoma.
According to reports, 2025 defensive line prospect Jahkeem Stewart will take an unofficial visit to Baton Rouge.
Earlier this week, there were reports that Stewart wouldn’t be visiting anywhere this weekend, but LSU made a late push to get the New Orleans native to Baton Rouge.
The On3 Prediction Machine gives LSU a 44.8% chance to land the 5-star recruit after it predicted Stewart would choose USC. The Trojans have a 35.5% chance to earn his commitment.
According to the On3 Industry Rankings, Stewart ranks as the top prospect at his position in Louisiana. He checks in at third at his position nationally and No. 16 overall.
Stewart is the top uncommitted player left in the state after reclassifying from 2026 to 2025. He was originally the top-ranked recruit in the 2026 class.
Allowing an in-state recruit of his caliber to slip away to an out-of-state school would be a huge loss for head coach Brian Kelly’s team. LSU typically performs well with high prospects from New Orleans.
