Lane Kiffin and Co. are making their presence felt on the recruiting trail, trending for pair of high-profile targets in the 2027 Recruiting Cycle.
Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers have dominated the recruiting scene this offseason after assembling an all-time great Transfer Portal Class headlined by nine Top-100 players in this year's cycle. Once the portal window opened, Kiffin and his new-look coaching staff attacked the free agent market with the LSU roster sitting as one of the most talented in America heading into the 2026 season as expectations rise in Baton Rouge.
"We have a lot of expectations for them. They need to produce," Kiffin said of his current roster. "I told them today. I told the staff yesterday. I told the players today. You guys may have these salaries. "Don't sit around and think, 'Okay, well, you have this salary for this coming year because of what you did before.' Because you won this before, you were this good player before, or you coached these players in the position last year. "This salary is for the work you're supposed to do. You've got to go earn this every month and that's why you're here and that's the way I try to get them to look at it."
