Lane Kiffin’s debut LSU transfer class continues to earn high praise

When Lane Kiffin was hired as the next head coach of the LSU Football program, Tiger fans were immediately fired up at the possibilities. Kiffin led Ole Miss to the best regular season in program history in 2025, and with LSU starving for another shot at a national title, Kiffin was LSU's top target from the minute Brian Kelly was fired.

Kiffin has been on the job in Baton Rouge for less than two months, but he has already made a tremendous impact. Kiffin's roster construction for 2026 has included signing 14 players during the Early Signing Period, retaining several top playmakers, and bringing in over 40 players through the transfer portal.
