While the headlines have centered around Lane Kiffin’s arrival in Baton Rouge, National Signing Day looms.
Sunday two of LSU’s most heralded commitments confirmed they’ll sign with the Tigers on Wednesday.
Lamar Brown, a consensus top five player in the country, told Rivals he was ready to chase a championship with Kiffin.

According to Rivals, Anderson and Brown are the top two players in LSU’s class which ranks 11th nationally and has only dropped a pair of commitments since the firing of Brian Kelly.
The next three days will bring lots of staff decisions for Kiffin. Some of those decisions could impact current LSU commitments as well as some Ole Miss commitments.
Anderson and Brown are key pieces to LSU’s 2026 class.
