LSU’s quarterback recruiting board has gotten messy after losing 5-star Bryce Underwood to Michigan, leaving the Tigers without a QB in the 2025 or 2026 classes. Now, Brian Kelly and his staff are making a desperate push to flip 4-star South Carolina commit Landon Duckworth, who was in Tiger Stadium this past Saturday. We break down what Duckworth would bring to LSU and whether the Tigers can pull him away from Shane Beamer and the Gamecocks.

We also turn the spotlight to 2027 Louisiana QB Peyton Houston, who is set to announce his commitment on Monday. Can LSU hold off Brent Venables and Oklahoma to keep another homegrown star in Baton Rouge?

From Duckworth’s visit, to Houston’s looming decision, to the ripple effect of losing Underwood, we cover everything you need to know about LSU’s quarterback recruiting drama.
