LSU Football Recruiting: Who Could Commit to the Tigers Next?

Brian Kelly and the Tigers are surging for a pair of 2025 targets. Who could pop next for the purple and gold?
In this story:

Brian Kelly and the LSU football staff added a commitment from New Orleans (La.) Edna Karr safety Aiden Hall on Saturday after he went public with a decision.

The commitment from the 2026 star continued what has been a massive summer for the Tigers on the recruiting trail.

Now, with another pledge in the fold, who could be next to commit to the Bayou Bengals this summer?

A pair of 2025 targets to keep tabs on in August:

CJ Jimcoily: Safety (2025)

The four-star safety out of Nashville (Tenn.) has LSU firmly in the mix with Jimcoily down to LSU and Stanford, according to On3 Sports' Shea Dixon.

A standout defensive back who's officially visited Baton Rouge already, he's continuing to keep the Tigers at the top of his list with a decision inching closer. He's set to make a an announcement on August 8th between LSU and Stanford.

There are ties here for the Tigers. Jimcoily's father grew up in the New Orleans area and he has family in Louisiana still. For the Bayou Bengals, it's a huge advantage down the stretch.

LSU safeties coach Jake Olsen has had all hands on deck in the recruitment of Jimcoily with a decision date now inching closer.

He's a talented 6-foot-3, 210-pounder who's preparing for a huge senior campaign at Limpscomb Academy. With an impressive double-digit scholarship list, it's now a two-horse race between LSU and Stanford with the Bayou Bengals surging.

Mike Tyler: Tight End (2025)

After camping with the Tigers over the summer, the program was impressed with the 6-foot-4, 225-pounder, ultimately sending him an invite to make his way to town for the Bayou Splash event at the end of July.

Now, Tyler is a name to keep tabs on as his recruitment nears the finish line over the next few weeks. A player the program is pushing for, they've turned up the heat as of late.

Tyler currently holds offers from over 20 programs including LSU, Ole Miss, South Carolina and Wake Forest, among others.

LSU is pushing for the Columbia, South Carolina native despite already holding a commitment from the No. 1 tight end in Louisiana, JD LaFleur.

As it stands, the goal is to have a two-tight end class in 2025 with Tyler rounding out the haul alongside LaFleur.

Tyler is fresh off of a big-time junior campaign after hauling in 33 receptions for 543 yards and seven touchdowns for his program.

A dynamic offensive weapon, he's shown the ability to work as both a receiving and blocking tight end with high expectations heading into his senior year.

As it stands, the Tigers are pulling out front for his services with LSU Tigers On SI now predicting Tyler ultimately lands in LSU's 2025 Recruiting Class sooner rather than later.

The No. 3 overall class in America, Tyler would join a star-studded group that has the chance to reach No. 1 status before it's all said and done.
