LSU football target, New Orleans native gets massive bump from On3
LSU football target, New Orleans native gets massive bump from On3
One of LSU football's top recruiting targets just got a massive bump from On3. New Orleans defensive end Zyron Forstall (2027) is now the No. 3 overall recruit in the country per the updated On300 rankings.
Forstall is the No. 2 ranked recruit at his position and the top-ranked player in the state of Louisiana. LSU extended an offer to Forstall as he wrapped up his sophomore year of high school. LSU is always considered the favorite for New Orleans' top prospects and that rule applies here. Forstall's recruitment will be a national one, but LSU is in a good spot.
According to the On3 Prediction Machine, LSU has a 79.3% chance of landing Forstall's services. Alabama and Ole Miss are also contenders for the blue-chip prospect.
Rivals isn't as quite high on Forstall, ranking him as the No. 121 overall recruit in the 2027 class.
Forstall isn't the only elite prospect in Louisiana's 2027 cycle. Quarterback and Baton Rouge native Elijah Haven remains the No. 3 overall recruit in On3's Industry Rankings. Haven and Forstall are both projected to be elite players at premium positions. Landing both would be a coup for LSU.
