The rumor: LSU visits America’s top quarterback, and the Tigers are stepping it up
LSU is now concentrating on the best signal-caller as it continues to pursue Faizon Brandon, the top quarterback in the 2026 class.
LSU continues its push for the No. 1 quarterback in the 2026 class, Faizon Brandon, with focus shifting to the top signal-caller.
With the acquisition of Bryce Underwood, the top signal-caller in the country for the 2025 cycle, the LSU football team is still in the driver’s seat in the quarterback recruiting class.
Now that they have offered two quarterbacks ranked in the Top 5 (Dia Bell and Faizon Brandon), the Tigers are making a strong push in the 2026 class.
Brandon, the top signal-caller in the nation, visited the LSU campus in Baton Rouge this spring thanks to an invitation from the Tigers.
Brandon, a five-star signal-caller in the 2026 class, is having a fantastic recruiting season.
The highly sought-after native of North Carolina is getting ready for his junior campaign and has already received ten scholarships.
Making an impression on the best signal-caller in America, LSU quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator Joe Sloan is making sure to get in on the action early.
Sloan hopped on a flight to visit with Brandon on Tuesday, according to On3 Sports’ Shea Dixon, to get some much-needed face time with the prized quarterback ahead of a busy summer.
According to 247Sports, Brandon will visit Tennessee, Ohio State, and Oregon this summer. However, LSU is undoubtedly hoping to bring the 2026 cycle’s crown jewel to The Boot as soon as possible.
According to Chad Simmons of On3 Sports, Brandon will pay LSU a visit on June 15.
Playing for Grimsley High School, the 6-foot-4, 185-pound player from Greensboro, North Carolina, led the Whirlies to a 13-1 record in his sophomore year.
In the QB market, Sloan and company are making all the right moves. Following the departure of Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels, Garrett Nussmeier is expected to assume the starting quarterback position for the Tigers.
The Bayou Bengals will then have an absurd amount of money to work with, leading the way in the 2025 class with 5-star Bryce Underwood.
On January 6, Underwood—the top player in America—made his allegiance to the purple in gold clear.
After receiving his commitment from the Bayou Bengals, LSU shocked the college football recruiting scene by snagging the top class in the current 2025 cycle.
The No. 1 overall player in the 2025 class is a Tiger with program-changing potential.
The Bayou Bengals are currently applying pressure to retain Underwood’s services. In February, Brian Kelly and Joe Sloan from LSU traveled to Michigan to see Underwood in person; it was the first of several meetings.
One of the greatest recruiting successes of the modern period is Underwood’s commitment, and this team will make sure to keep fighting for him even after he makes his vow.
