Coveted Texas Defensive Back Sets Upcoming Visit to LSU Football

Frisco (Tex.) Panther Creek defensive back Donovan Webb continues stacking offers after a standout junior campaign for his prep squad.

The 6-foot, 165-pounder out of the Lone Star State has reeled in offers from USC, Ole Miss, Oregon, Colorado, SMU, and Nebraska, among several others, as his rise continues.

Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers are also in on the action with the program placing an emphasis on the border state in the 2026 Recruiting Cycle.

The Bayou Bengals are one of four programs that have locked in an unofficial visit with the coveted safety once the NCAA Dead Period is lifted.

Webb will visit LSU, Colorado, Ohio State and Michigan this spring for unofficial visits, he told Rivals last week.

Colorado: March 15th

It'll be a busy stretch for the coveted defensive back that is quickly garnering interest from the "Who's Who" of college football during a pivotal stretch in his recruitment.

Webb is coming off of a junior campaign with totals of:

3 Touchdowns
120 Tackles
5 Interceptions
2 Forced Fumbles
2 Punt Return Touchdowns( 95 & 69 yds)
330 Total Punt Return Yards
9 Pass Breakups

LSU is off to a fast start in the 2026 Recruiting Cycle with six commitments to this point. The class ranks as No. 3 in America and No. 1 in the Southeastern Conference.

The LSU 2026 Commitments [6]:

Richard Anderson: No. 2 DL in America

Richard pledged to the Tigers in 2024 with the program continuing to keep a foot on the gas for his services. He's fresh off of a monster junior campaign at Edna Karr after leading his program to a state championship victory.

The coveted lineman earned 5A All-State honors after tallying 44 tackles, 15 tackles for loss, 10 sacks, 18 quarterback hurries, two interceptions and a touchdown in 2024. He's the top pledge in LSU's 2026 Recruiting Class to this point.

Aiden Hall: No. 4 Safety in America

Hall committed to Kelly and Co. during his junior campaign where he joined his teammate, Richard Anderson, as LSU pledges in the 2026 class.

The coveted defensive back rounded out his junior season with 38 tackles, including 12 for loss and four sacks, plus four interceptions, 11 pass break-ups, four blocked punts and two fumble recoveries. One of the top safeties in America, LSU will be battling down the stretch for his services.

Brysten Martinez: 4-star Offensive Tackle

Gonzales (La.) East Ascension four-star offensive tackle Brysten Martinez has verbally committed to Brian Kelly and the LSU Tigers, he announced on Feb. 13. He is rated as the No. 8 rated offensive tackle in America and is a Top-75 overall prospect in the 2026 Recruiting Cycle.

The 6-foot-5, 290-pounder selected the Tigers over a myriad of SEC programs including the Alabama Crimson Tide, Texas A&M Aggies and Georgia Bulldogs, among several others.

Kenny Darby: 4-star Wide Receiver

Darby is fresh off of a junior campaign where he landed on the 5A All-State team after logging 100 receptions for 1,764 yards and 24 scores. One of the most prolific receivers in Louisiana, Darby is a player the program remains high on heading into his senior season.

The 6-foot, 175-pounder is a speedy, twitchy wideout that burst on the scene in 2024 with LSU extending an offer. Darby wasted no time in pledging to the program.

Jakai Anderson: 4-star Wide Receiver

Anderson is another elite-level wide receiver out of Louisiana who recently earned 4A All-State honors after an impressive junior season. He logged 57 catches for 972 yards and 14 touchdowns on the season, but a Swiss Army Knife that does it all. Anderson also rushed for 151 yards and four scores on 16 carries.

Jalan Chapman: Coveted Offensive Lineman

Chapman, a three-star prospect out of New Orleans (La.), pledged to the Tigers last summer over Alabama, USC, Georgia and Tennessee, among others.

He currently stands at 6-foot-3, 270 pounds following his junior year for New Orleans (La.) Warren Easton High after gaining national attention following his sophomore campaign in 2023.
