On3 predicting LSU to land 5-star 2026 offensive lineman

LSU’s 2025 class is one of the nation’s best. It’s loaded with five stars at the top and LSU is hoping to do the same thing with its 2026 class.

The Tigers are on their way, with On3’s Steve Wiltfong listing LSU as the projected destination for five-star offensive lineman Lamar Brown.

“The local University Lab five-star has spent a lot of time on the nearby campus and it’s hard to imagine him playing elsewhere in college,” Wiltfong wrote.

According to the On3 Industry Rankings, Brown is the No. 5 overall prospect in his class and the top interior offensive lineman. On3, 247Sports, and Rivals consider Brown Louisiana’s top 2026 prospect after defensive tackle Jahkeem Stewart reclassified to 2025.

Brown was visiting LSU when the Tigers took down No. 9 Ole Miss on Saturday. Brown said the atmosphere “stood out.”

LSU’s 2026 class already has four prospects on board. All Louisiana products and all from New Orleans. The top-ranked 2026 commit is safety Aiden Hall out of Edna Karr High School.

LSU offensive line coach Brad Davis is a strong recruiter and a Baton Rouge native. It would be surprising to see LSU miss on Brown with Davis leading the charge.

Brian Kelly’s programs have a history of developing offensive linemen and that trend is continuing at LSU.
