LSU football extends offer to 2026 in-state defensive back
LSU football extends offer to 2026 in-state defensive back
LSU football made an offer to 2026 cornerback Hayward Howard Jr., according to an social media post from the prospect on Tuesday.
According to On3's Industry Rankings, Howard ranks No. 32 at his position and No. 11 in the state of Louisiana. Hailing from New Orleans, Howard plays high school football at Edna Karr High School, just like multiple Tigers before him.
2025 signee and four-star prospect TeRon Francis and veteran wide receiver Aaron Anderson also went through Edna Karr. 2026 commitments Aiden Hall and Richard Anderson play alongside Howard at the school, helping the team win the state championship last year.
Howard holds offers from plenty of Power Four schools, including Ole Miss, Florida, Texas A&M, Auburn and Texas. Should he join the Tigers, he would bolster the nation's top 2026 class while representing his home state.
LSU football's 2026 recruiting class currently ranks No. 1 in the country, according to On3. The Tigers have nine total commits, including seven four-stars and one five-star.
Howard is the type of talented Louisiana defensive back that LSU secondary coach Corey Raymond has made a career out of recruiting.

5 elite 2026 prospects flock to social media during their Texas A&M visit
5 elite 2026 prospects flock to social media during their Texas A&M visit Texas A&M coach Mike Elko and his staff are currently hosting some of the most talented prospects in the 2026 recruiting class, with a total of 18 prospects making their way to campus on Thursday through Saturday, while some of the more vital prospects, including five-star wide receiver and LSU commit Tristen Keys is still open for business despite his pledge wth the Tigers. Six Texas A&M commits in the 2026 cycle, including wide receiver Aaron Gregory, edge Jordan Carter, running back Jonathan Hatton, quarterback Helaman Casuga, tight end Caleb Tafua, and defensive lineman Jermaine Kinsler, who are all considered "hard" commitments who are expected to sign with the team this winter. However, these official visits are crucial in building a strong relationship with each commit and visitor, knowing that players like Tristen Keys and five-star safety Bralan Womack likely won't return to College Station before their commitments or signing announcements. On Thursday night, several of the visitors, including five-star edge Anthony Jones, four-star cornerback Dorian Barney, and four-star offensive lineman John Turntine, also made their way to campus, sharing their visits via social media (X). 2026 Four-Star OL John Turntine III 2026 Five-Star Edge Anthony Jones 2026 Four-Star WR Aaron Gregory (Texas A&M commit) and Five-Star WR Tristen Keys (LSU commit) with literal goats 2026 Four-Star CB Dorian Barney 2026 Five-Star WR Tristen Keys This is just the start of what's to come this weekend. With the news that former Miami Recruiting Director and assistant wide receiver coach David "Pop" Cooney is now headed to College Station, anything is possible, especially relating to his connection with Tristen Keys and Aaron Gregory.
