Brian Kelly and the LSU football staff will welcome double-digit early-enrollees this weekend with several newcomers heading to Baton Rouge in the coming days.
Kelly and Co. will bring in 13 true freshmen from the 2025 Signing Class this spring where the youngsters will move in, enroll in classes and be able to take part in the program’s spring camp in March.
It’s a significant opportunity for the young players. LSU has already welcomed DJ Pickett, Harlem Berry and Damien Shanklin to join the team with the trio working through bowl practices with the Tigers in Houston last month.
Now, the rest of the early-enrollees will make their way to Baton Rouge with move-in day only three days away.
After speaking with sources, here are the 13 early-enrollees LSU will bring in for the spring semester. The true freshmen will move in this weekend and begin the semester on Monday, Jan. 13.

LSU was in dire need of a young, impactful cornerback to make his way to Baton Rouge in the 2025 Recruiting Class with Corey Raymond spearheading the push.

Kelly has raved about the youngster and what he’s set to provide the program moving forward. He projects as a player that will make an instant impact for the Tigers.
“Watching a guy on film move that way (with his height) was what really surprised me about him,” Kelly said on National Signing Day. “I don’t even know if it’s an argument. We believe he’s hands-down the best corner in the country.
“I don’t know that I’ve ever felt that there is a lockdown corner, but he’s about as close as there is to a lockdown corner in the country. And his offensMonday, Jan. 13.ive film might be as good, if not better.
