LSU’s head coach Brian Kelly and his recruiting team have traveled to Tuskegee, Alabama, to extend an offer to standout 4-Star WR Marquez Daniel, a key player in the 2026 recruiting class. However, LSU faces tough competition from Auburn to secure his commitment.
4-Star WR Marquez Daniel, a 6-foot-5, 187-pound athlete, is a four-star wide receiver from Booker T. Washington High School. This past season, Daniel helped lead the Booker T. Washington Eagles to a 9-5 record, culminating in a Class 4A state semifinal appearance where they fell to Montgomery Catholic.
While there are no Crystal Ball projections available yet, Auburn is currently considered the frontrunner with a 39% chance of landing Daniel, according to On3.
