Louisiana 2026. Recruit Rankings

7 players ranked in the top 300… 6 of which are all top 105… 5 of which are in the top 51. Absolutely ridiculous class. If you land all 7 you WILL be a top 5 class nationally. They have received commits from 4 and are trending heavily for the other 3 according to on3s prediction machine.

Aiden Hall & Brysten Martinez appear to be locked in.

Jabari Mack getting lots of looks from Texas schools but they expect him to stick.

Didn't Kenny Darby say he was locked in right after saying his recruitment was still open?


I expect Bradford to be in this class despite the pushes from the national contenders. Notre Dame and Oregon are all over this one.


You've already seen Richard Anderson say that his recruitment is open. He just saw Jahkeem get his millions.

Lamar Brown is getting a lot of love from A&M and they're willing to spend.

That's why I love guys like Martinez. They shut it down early and stick.

Looks like there is a good focus on in state to start the recruiting cycle off. I am not seeing as many national names right now.

Only RB I see in-state is Ke'Rynn Smith. Are we after him or going out-of-state in 2026?

I have said this once and will say it again. Kenny Darby is going to continue to rise in these rankings as outdoor track, the 7v7 scene, and camp circuit progresses. He is going to absolutely dominate his senior year and will post some eye popping stats. The film matches the production with this kid and he is no doubt the most ready Louisiana wide receiver to make an instant impact at the next level from a skill set standpoint.

It looks like out of state at this time. Only two current offers I show.

The crazy part is that there will be a few guys that we don't know about that will rise in the ranking between now and ESD... Dom McKinley and Reliford weren't highly ranked until closer to the Fall of their Senior years.

You have to think that his being a Catholic BR guy whose brother is at LSU bodes well for the Tigers, but who knows in today's Wild West.

LSU need to be ready and willing to spend for these top QBs, DL, OL, and LBs. RBs, WRs DBs can be found but need to be willing to match for all of our top guys.

I’ll say this, LSU won’t overpay for Brown. With Brad Davis’s ability to recruit OL and snatch the best ones from bordering states it’s easier to not overpay. If he loves Texas A&M and doesn’t want to be a Tiger then it is what it is we’ll be fine

I'm watching all his visits. We're back to the can't let the best DB leave the state conversation again
