Brian Kelly and his recruiting team traveled to Hattiesburg, Mississippi, where they extended a scholarship offer to a four-star wide receiver from the 2026 recruiting class. LSU will compete against neighboring Ole Miss and other schools to secure his commitment.
Tristen Keys is a 6-foot-3, 170-pound receiver playing for Hattiesburg High School, which concluded last season with a 7-4 record, ending in the 6A playoffs against Pascagoula.
As of now, there are no crystal ball projections, but On3’s RPM indicates that Ole Miss is the front-runner with a 77% likelihood of landing the four-star prospect.
