Hattiesburg (Miss.) five-star wide receiver Tristen Keys has locked in official visits to six schools, according to On3’s Hayes Fawcett.

He will see LSU, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Miami, Alabama and Auburn.

The 6-foot-2, 185-pound Keys told On3’s Chad Simmons earlier this week that Alabama was “high on his list.”

“The people stood out to me,” he told On3. “They are so organized, they keep each other accountable, and going to a place like Alabama will help you mature and become responsible. The staff was great, I liked the facilities, the players was nice to be around and everything was cool.

“I could see myself with the people there. I was comfortable and I had a great time.”

Auburn also received a visit from Keys toward the end of January.

“Today was great,” he told Auburn Live. “It all started this morning. I got to chill with some of the guys. Just trying to see how you fit in and get along with the guys. The guys were great. I can picture myself in this environment and with a bunch of the players here like Anquon Fegans and Deuce Knight.

Keys is the nation’s No. 6 overall prospect in the 2026 cycle according to the On3 Industry Ranking — a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is the No. 2 receiver in the class and the top-ranked recruit in the state of Mississippi.
