LSU landed a massive commitment on Wednesday night with five-star wide receiver Tristen Keys giving his verbal pledge to the Tigers.

Keys, a 6-3, 180-pounder from Hattiesburg, Miss., is the No. 1 wide receiver in the country for the class of 2026.

Keys committed to the Tigers over Tennessee, Alabama, and Texas A&M.

LSU now has seven verbal commits for the class of 2026.

That’s cool and all, but wake me up on 8/31/2026.
Kids are leveraging NIL too much these days.

He has ‘chosen’ LSU for now. We really need to get away from using the word ‘committed’

BIIIL•8 months

Congratulations on the public announcement of support. We know commitments aren't really that. But its nice to see the positive trend leading up to signing day

Batiger53•8 months

No brainer, LSU has produced the highest paid WRs in NFL.

HoustonGumbeauxGuy•8 months

I’ll believe it when this kid suits up in the fall

DVinBR•8 months

Not committed until he signs

pwejr88•8 months

We need to do away with verbal commitments entirely

carhartt•8 months

Let’s say this again for all in the back.

Verbal commitments do not mean shite. Get excited when the paperwork is actually sent in.

Tristen sure looks good in that LSU uniform.

Mmmm, that's nice and all but we'll see if he actually honors his "commitment" or actually signs somewhere else for an extra $50k.

Verbals mean nothing to these kids, NIL is a monster and changes all in recruiting game

Hold on to this Tiger!

FLObserver•8 months

Great news!! But until the ink dries not even going to count him as an official LSU tiger yet.

BillyTheKid•8 months

Agreed, commitments have truly lost their meaning in my humble opinion. It's ALL about the money for the highest rated players coming out of high school.

Bucky_B•8 months

agreed. almost wish that he hadn't committed to us so that we would have a chance of him playing on our team.

geauxbrown•8 months

This means zero.

Nothing to get excited over until he signs. Happens every year we get a bunch of these that commit and then 8 months later we get a “i just wanna thank the staff at LSU.” and a “respect my decision”

I’ve seen this fricking movie way too many times to get excited.

Nice, but I’ll be floored if we don’t get a ‘spect mah deesishun tweet from him once we get closer to signing day.

These kids “commitments” ain’t worth using as toilet paper these days.

BIIIL•8 months

Too bad that most posters choose to see this as a negative event. Recruiting has obviously turned into something that they hate. Which leaves me wondering why they continue to follow it. Just tune in at the end of the early signing period fellas and don't worry about it too much

If every wife you ever married asked for an annulment 2 weeks after the wedding, you would never believe you would keep a wife. commitment issues. same thing is happening in college sports. that's why no one trusts this article

St Augustine•8 months

Commenting in here isn’t necessarily following it though. This story pops up on the front page, at the bottoms of threads, etc. I think it’s overwhelmingly negative because it’s a damn Wild West shite show. People are just sick of Lucy pulling the football over and over.

Smart on his part. LSU has become a wide receiver factory for the NFL!
