While we find ourselves currently in the college football recruiting dead period, that doesn't mean that Brian Kelly can't build relationships with the top players in the 2025 and 2026 classes and continue the already red hot momentum he has on recruiting the top talent in the state of Louisiana and beyond. Locked On's official recruiting insider Brian Smith joins Caroline Fenton of Locked On LSU to break down what this time of year looks like for recruiting, some players to keep an eye on in the next few recruiting classes, who is high on LSU, and who can add even more star power to the already stacked 2025 recruiting class for the Tigers.
DJ Pickett, the five-star DB from Tampa, Florida in the 2025 class has LSU on his short list. While Pickett could go nearly anywhere in the country, Kelly and the entire recruiting staff at LSU have worked diligently to keep the Tigers at the forefront of his mind. Why is he so highly coveted of a recruit and what does he do well? Plus, the Tigers hope to continue the tradition of elite running backs in Baton Rouge and James Simon could be the next in line. The four-star Shreveport native in the 2025 class has also been recruited all over the country. Can Kelly solidify the borders of the state of Louisiana by bringing in a top ten player in the state in that class?
