The Wide Receiver Big Board: Who is LSU Football Pushing to Land Commitments From?

The Bayou Bengals have several wideouts on their board, but who are they turning up the heat for?

The LSU football staff continues working behind the scenes on the recruiting trail, and after another busy weekend in Baton Rouge, the wide receiver big board is taking shape.

The weekend of April 12th was always set to be an important stretch for this program, but with it now in the rearview mirror, the dust is beginning to settle.

LSU hosted a number of the top prospects in both the 2025 and 2026 cycles for the Tigers' Spring Game on Saturday, April 13.

From the No. 1 quarterback in America making his way in town to the No. 2 wideout in America arriving, it was a busy 72 hours for LSU.

The Wide Receiver Big Board:

Dakorien Moore: No. 1 Wide Receiver in America

Moore revealed his pledge to LSU in August of 2023 and has remained firm to his commitment ever since. He's remained locked in with Brian Kelly and the Tigers, but is certainly enjoying the recruitment process.

Now, a trio of schools are looking to flip him away from his commitment to LSU with Texas, Oregon and Ohio State making noise.

Over the weekend, Moore traveled up to Ohio State for a visit with the Buckeyes staff, opting not to make the move to Baton Rouge for their Spring Game.

The decision raised eyebrows from some, but Moore cleared the air afterwards, confirming he is 1000% committed to LSU.

It's clear the Tigers will be on red alert over the next handful of months until Moore puts pen to paper in December.

Kaliq Lockett: No. 2 Wide Receiver in America

Lockett made his way to Baton Rouge on Friday afternoon where he was accompanied by Bryce Underwood, the No. 1 quarterback in the country, for a weekend stay.

The coveted wideout remained in town all weekend with sources believing the visit, "went really well" as the Tigers rise up his list.

Now, Lockett will make a return trip to LSU on May 31-June 2 for an official visit where he will be joined by several prized targets, but none bigger than DJ Pickett, the No. 1 cornerback in the 2025 cycle.

We like where Lockett stands here as he continues checking out LSU. It'll be a battle for his services, but the Bayou Bengals are picking up steam.

Caleb Cunningham: No. 3 Wide Receiver in America

LSU already received a visit from Caleb Cunningham this spring with more wideouts expected to make their way in town over the next two months, but for the coveted target, it was a productive visit to campus.

The five-star Mississippi native was joined by a handful of the top recruits in the nation as he made his return trip to The Boot.

Cunningham took in a game day experience last fall, and after a positive visit, he's eyeing an official visit to Baton Rouge soon.

A few notes:

Wide receiver coach Cortez Hankton reeled in an impressive wide receiver haul last offseason and looks to be swinging for the fences once again. With a commitment from the top wideout already, and the No. 2 wide receiver set to be back for an official visit, it's clear his formula is working down South.

Moore, Cunningham and Lockett, the top three receivers in the country, all have LSU on their radar as they prepare to navigate an official visit schedule this summer and fall.

The Bayou Bengals will be fending off the Texas Longhorns and Oregon Ducks for Moore's services down the stretch, but his pledge thus far is a major boost for LSU.

Another key note is that LSU already holds a pledge for the No. 1 wide receiver in Louisiana, TaRon Francis. A player who programs covet on the recruiting trail, the Tigers went out and secured his services early.

The LSU Wide Receiver Big Board includes:

- No. 1 WR Dakorien Moore (Commit)

- No. 2 WR Kaliq Lockett

- No. 3 WR Caleb Cunningham

- No. 6 WR CJ Wiley

- No. 8 WR Jamie Ffrench

- No. 13 WR Derek Meadows

- Four-star WR Cortez Mills

When it comes to the 2025 cycle, LSU holds the No. 2 class in America headlined by a trio of top players at their positions.

Bryce Underwood: No. 1 Quarterback and No. 1 Overall 2025 Prospect

Harlem Berry: No. 1 Running Back 

Dakorien Moore: No. 1 Wide Receiver 

Now, the Tigers are looking to make even more noise on the recruiting trail as they solidify the 2025 class.
