LSU Tigers Bolster Roster: 23 New Commits Join 2025 Class, Boosting Team’s Recruitment Efforts…
The LSU Tigers have roared onto the recruiting scene in a big way, announcing an impressive haul of 23 new commitments for the 2025 recruiting class. With the ink barely dry on National Signing Day, the Tigers find themselves surging in the national rankings and reestablishing themselves as a recruiting powerhouse in the ultra-competitive SEC landscape.
Head coach Brian Kelly, now fully entrenched in Baton Rouge, made a statement with this class—not only in terms of sheer numbers but also in quality. This 2025 class, already being labeled as one of the most balanced and promising in recent program history, touches every key position group and is filled with future playmakers on both sides of the ball.
“We didn’t just go after stars—we went after competitors, leaders, and guys who fit the LSU culture,” Kelly said during a post-signing press conference. “This class is built for the future, and it’s built to win.”
Key Highlights from the 2025 Class:
Among the 23 new commits are multiple top-100 national prospects, including five-star offensive tackle Miles Riggins out of Houston, Texas, and five-star linebacker Treyden Moore from Atlanta, Georgia. Riggins, standing at 6-foot-6 and 315 pounds, is a massive addition to an offensive line unit that Kelly has been steadily rebuilding. He’s considered a day-one starter with NFL potential.
Moore, on the other hand, is a sideline-to-sideline defender with elite instincts and leadership qualities. His decision to commit to LSU over Georgia and Ohio State speaks volumes about the Tigers’ growing reputation for developing defensive talent.
In addition to these headliners, LSU landed a dynamic offensive trio in four-star quarterback Caleb Foster, speedy wide receiver Jaylon Hart, and dual-threat running back Elijah Walker. The trio is expected to form the core of the Tigers’ offense for years to come, continuing LSU’s recent trend of producing explosive playmakers.
Defensively, the Tigers added serious firepower in the secondary with ball-hawking safety Zion Marks and shutdown cornerback Deshawn Grant—two players who have already drawn comparisons to former LSU greats.
A National Footprint
One of the most impressive aspects of this class is its national reach. While LSU dominated in-state recruiting, pulling in key talent from Louisiana, the coaching staff also made significant inroads in Texas, Georgia, Florida, and even California. Kelly and his staff placed a clear emphasis on relationships and long-term development, offering recruits a clear path to early playing time and NFL preparation.
The Tigers also took advantage of the evolving recruiting landscape, leveraging NIL opportunities and cutting-edge facilities as selling points. Still, Coach Kelly emphasized that culture remains the foundation.
With the 2025 class locked in, LSU now boasts a top-3 national recruiting class, according to most major services, including 247Sports and Rivals. More importantly, this group fills key needs while elevating the overall depth and competitiveness of the roster.
As spring practice rolls on and the 2025 season approaches, Tiger fans have plenty to be excited about. The influx of young talent, combined with veteran leadership already on the roster, positions LSU as a legitimate contender not just in the SEC—but on the national stage.
This class marks more than just numbers—it’s a declaration. The LSU Tigers are not rebuilding. They’re reloading.
And with 23 new faces ready to carry the torch, the future in Death Valley looks brighter than ever.
