Linebacker

Following the decommitment of four-star cornerback Jaylen Bell, the Tigers were left with two defensive commits: safety Jaboree Antoine and insider linebacker Keylan Moses. The heart of recruiting, Moses, moved up on the Rivals250 to No. 107 as the fourth-best recruit at his position.

"Keylan Moses grew up an LSU fan, he goes to school at Baton Rouge (LA) University Lab which is on LSU’s campus and he committed to the Tigers in November," national recruiting director Adam Gorney said.

"His brother, Dylan, was a star linebacker years ago and while Moses plays inside, he’s a little longer and rangier than his brother – and maybe hits harder, too. LSU is off to a great start with Moses’ commitment and it should only build from here."

Defensive Back

Secondary coach Corey Raymond landed his first commit — Antoine — in the Class of 2025 in January, less than a month into his return to Baton Rouge. Antoine, a four-star safety, fell one spot on the Rivals250 but moved up to No. 9 at his position.

"The Tigers have some very talented players on the commitment list for the 2025 class. So it’d be easy to overlook in-state defensive back Jaboree Antoine," national recruiting analyst Greg Smith.

"That would be a mistake. The two-way standout from New Iberia (LA) Westgate does a little bit of everything for his school and has a high ceiling at defensive back. Look for LSU to continue adding blue chip talent to the defensive backfield this cycle."
