Ferguson on why he chose LSU

“What really stood out was the family approach,” Ferguson said. “My family is everything and they welcomed me like I was a part of their family! Coach Steeples is a teacher at heart and I know that I will really be able to learn and grow my game with him. I believe in Coach Kelly’s vision for the team and the vision the staff has for me. Besides the fact that I have always wanted to be a tiger from childhood, the staff at LSU made a huge impact on me and my family!”

LSU DBU Tradition stood out to Zion Ferguson 

“LSU has been known as DBU for years,” Ferguson said. “If you’re a top DB in the country it’s a must that you take a serious look at LSU. My favorite NFL player has always been Tyrann Matthieu. I love the way that he’s still tied into the program and also gives back. I’m on a quest to become another great LSU DB that will be able to leave my legacy at the school for years to come.”

The Peach State defensive back joins coach Kelly and the Tigers’ No. 6 class in the 2024 Consensus Team Rankings. He accompanies high school teammate Joseph Stone Jr., Maurice Williams, and others. 

Ferguson currently ranks as the No. 155 player in the 2024 On3 Consensus Rankings. He also tabs in as the No. 18 cornerback and the No. 26 player in the state of Georgia.
