Tristen Keys announced a verbal commitment to LSU Wednesday, choosing the Tigers over Alabama and others.
Keys is a 2026 five-star wide receiver prospect of Hattiesburg High School in Mississippi.
The Crimson Tide were considered a top choice for Keys before he announce this decision. He visited the Tide February and scheduled an official visit afterwards.
The Tide’s 2026 class does not have a commitment from a wide receiver, but they are in the running for multiple top wideouts, including Cederian Morgan, Boobie Feaster, Corey Barber and others.
