LSU Football Set to Host Notre Dame Fighting Irish Cornerback Target for Visit

Cincinnati (Ohio) Anderson four-star cornerback Ashton Alston has locked in multiple unofficial visits for this fall as he begins evaluating the contenders in his process.

Alston, a Top-15 cornerback in the 2027 Recruiting Cycle, has emerged as one of the top defensive backs in America with a myriad of programs in the mix.

The 5-foot-11, 175-pounder has also reeled in scholarships from the likes of the Ohio State Buckeyes, West Virginia Mountaineers, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Alabama Crimson Tide and Oregon Ducks.

Alston has taken multiple unofficial visits this offseason with a trip to Baton Rouge being checked off the list in May.

The highly-touted defensive back took an unofficial visit to the Bayou State to round out the month of May with secondary coach Corey Raymond hosting Alston.

Along with a trip to LSU checked off the docket, he also checked in with multiple other programs including Notre Dame and West Virginia, among others.

Now, with Alston's junior campaign inching closer, he's set unofficial visit dates for the fall with LSU getting one of their own.

The LSU Tigers, Ohio State Buckeyes, Missouri Tigers and Penn State Nittany Lions are in line to receive unofficial visits, according to 247Sports.

The hometown Buckeyes have emerged as a school to watch in Alston's recruitment process with the defending National Champions beginning to intensify their pursuit.
