LSU Lands their first 5-Star for 2027 with Ahmad Hudson

Anthony Parker • May 3, 2026

On Sunday afternoon, five-star and No. 1 overall tight end in the nation Ahmad Hudson committed to Lane Kiffin and the Tigers. Hudson has been viewed by many as one of the most athletic prospects in the 2027 class.

He is a highly rated dual-sport athlete in football and basketball and plans to play both sports for the Tigers. He is the son of former LSU basketball player Antonio Hudson, who played for the Tigers from 2002 to 2005.

Ahmad Hudson will finish his senior season at Ruston High School in North Louisiana, where he has already won a basketball state championship and played for a football state championship this past season.

Hudson is expected to come in and most likely find himself in a role similar to what current LSU standout tight end Trey’Dez Green is playing.

It is a great day for Kiffin, Hudson, and the Tigers.


A quick share helps us a lot!
