LSU reeled in a legacy commitment this summer when 2025 Sulphur (La.) tight end JD LaFleur committed to the Tigers. The four-star prospect added an offer from the Tigers after his June summer camp performance.

Now, he’s in the On300, which was updated on Monday.

He’s the No. 236 overall prospect, No. 15 tight end and No. 7 prospect in Louisiana, according to On3.

The 6-6, 230-pounder added offers from Miami, Baylor, Tulane, Texas Tech, Texas A&M and others before ultimately committing to LSU. He was back on campus on Saturday for the win over Auburn.

“The atmosphere Saturday was awesome as it always is in Tiger Stadium,” LaFleur told On3. “It was a fast start by the offense and a great team win. It was fun and exciting to watch the Tigers dominate!”

LaFleur’s father, David LaFleur, was an All-American tight end for the Tigers in 1996 before becoming a first-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in 1997.

“I have always hoped for an offer from LSU,” LaFleur said after his offer. “I have been going to games all my life. My dad would take me and my brother and sister on the field for pregame. So yeah, it’s really exciting.

“This offer means a lot to me and my family. I have been going to games there since I was a kid, and obviously my dad played there. The last couple of weeks have been crazy, and I am just trying to process all of it.”

According to the On3 Industry Ranking, a weighted average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies, LaFleur ranks as the No. 283 overall prospect in the country, No. 18 tight end in the nation and No. 8 prospect in Louisiana.

LSU’s 2025 recruiting class sits at No. 4 in the nation, adding another four-star commit, TaRon Francis, this weekend after he committed to stay home in Louisiana.
