Wow! Sara Okeke to USC (West). They now have three 5-stars in the '26 class, and whether they get JuJu back or not, they're loaded as the Big 10 frontrunner next year and possibly the Final Four.

I expect a couple of quality additions this coming offseason by the Portal Queen.

Bradley was at the game yesterday, she has to be 100% LSU. Just go ahead and commit already .

Yeah, she was there and the clip I saw (Tiger Bait I think) she was throwing up the "L". I know that does not prove anything, but I like LSU's chances with Bradley.

Regarding next year's roster and lineup, do you think Zakiyah Johnson will play the 3 if we get some more 4s? She can move well and handle the ball and shoot. Would love to see her as a wing.


lola lampley is a great get! i know she'll be just a freshman, but ive been watching her play in some of the fiba team usa games last year, and she's def a lot better than some of the bigger named players (specifically, jerzy robinson is the one that comes to mind). she's gonna make a great 4.

tennessee is imploding and there are rumblings that oliviyah edwards may possibly could maybe ever-so-slightly have a change of heart. lsu was one of her final picks.

bradley...well, i hope she (or koval) eventually develop into something like that iowa girl (ava heiden). now THAT'S a big!

i would imagine o'neal may not want to come here and just play on the inside. she likes to step out and shoot the 3 and occasional middy--not be parked on a block trying to fight with other bigs.

Recruiting seem to be the problem. Next year’s team will only have a sophomore class with numbers. Can’t seem to be able to sign good high school players

They sign good HS players. They haven’t addressed singing legit bigs out of HS tho that I do agree.


They should land Caroline Bradley tho

Any idea what other high school players we are still looking at for next year? I'm sure they don't want to only sign one.

LSU is hiring two new coaches (should be announced sooner than later w/ portal opening up April 6).

As far as 2027, Caroline Bradley is essentially a given shell be headed to LSU. Some chatter she has already committed and will announce soon.


As far as 2027 Prospects:

-Kaleena Smith- 5'6 PG (# 1 Overall Recruit)
-Ivanna Wilson Manyacka- 6'2 Wing, (#2 Overall Recruit)
-Caroline Bradley- 6'5 Center (#3 Overall Recruit)
-GG Banks- 5'10 PG (#4 Overall Recruit)
-Jordyn Palmer- 6'1 Wing (#6 Overall Recruit)
-Nation williams- 6'2 Forward (#10 Overall Recruit)
-Zaniya Johnson- 6'4 Center (#13 Overall Recruit)
-Jemini Michell- 6'1 Wing (#16 Overall Recruit)
-Ogechi Okeke- 6'3 Forward (#19 Overall Recruit)
- Avery Arije - 6'0 Guard (#20 Overall Recruit)
-Saniyah Murray- 6'4 Post (#23 Overall Recruit)
-Samari Holeman- 5'8 PG (#26 Overall Recruit)
-KieAundria Acree - 6'0 Guard (#39 Overall Recruit)


This is probably the most updated list but every year an offer or two comes out during AAU ball etc


Players who have visited LSU:

Caroline Bradley (multiple times)
Kaleena Smith (Official Visit South Carolina)
KieAundria Acree (Unofficial South Carolina)
Ogechi Okeke (Unofficial Kentucky and South Carolina)
Zaniya Johnson (Unofficial South Carolina)
GG Banks (Unofficial Missouri)


Caroline Bradley is expected to announce her commitment to LSU sooner than later.

Players high on LSUs list right now are GG Banks, Jemini Mitchell and Zaniya Johnson. Jemini is out of Houston and Bellas former AAU teammate and best friend. Johnson is from Mississippi.

Bradley and Johnson would be great. For whatever reason Kim hasn’t signed a quality big out of high school since she’s been at LSU.

Any idea where we stand with her ?
