Where does LSU football actually pull its high school talent from? Real numbers, not assumptions. Right now, the LSU football roster carries 159 players from 87 high schools across 23 states. No single high school dominates the feeder map; the top high school (Destrehan HS) sends 4 players, and the recruiting net spreads from there. Kyle Monangai went from Don Bosco Prep, overlooked by Power-4 programs, to Rutgers Big Ten captain to the 2025 Chicago Bears. His older brother Kevin walked the same kind of road first, Villanova to the Eagles and Vikings as a player, then the Giants as a coach. Kevin coached his own brother through this exact program; that is why we built RawRecruit. These counts come from the current 2025 LSU football roster. Below: the high schools on the roster, the state-by-state breakdown of where the recruiting net pulls hardest (Louisiana leads at 38%), the methodology, and the questions parents ask us most.

Real Outcome

One Brother, Out Of That List

The roster above is not theoretical. Kevin's younger brother Kyle ran the same kind of road out of Don Bosco Prep, walked into Rutgers, captained a Big Ten roster, and got drafted in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft.

The Methodology

How We Count

Numbers come from the publicly available 2025 LSU football roster. We track each player back to the high school and home state on the roster line. The decision a family makes here is too big to plan around guesses, so we put the rosters in front of you.

The Conversation

Parents Ask Us

Q.01
Where does LSU football recruit from?
Right now, the LSU football roster carries 159 players from 87 high schools across 23 states. Counts come from the current 2025 roster.
Q.02
Which high school sends the most players to LSU football?
Destrehan HS leads with 4 current players on the roster. Beyond the top, the feeder map is wide and shallow; most high schools are represented by 1 or 2 players.
Q.03
Which states feed the most players to LSU football?
Louisiana leads at 38% of the roster (38 players), then Florida at 12% (12) and Georgia at 9% (9). The top three are above; ranks 4 through 10 unlock with a free account.
Q.04
How does RawRecruit count players on the LSU football roster?
We pull the current 2025 LSU football roster from public school athletics sites and count each player against the home state and high school listed on the roster line.
Q.05
Is LSU football a realistic target for an out-of-state player?
Yes. With 23 different home states on the current roster, LSU recruits nationally; no single region dominates. For an out-of-state kid, position fit and academic admission carry as much weight as where you live.
Q.06
What does my kid actually do with this list of feeder high schools?
The list is the input. The seven-step playbook is the action. Profile your kid's real numbers, build a target list off the schools above, send the email coaches actually read, and run the visit on full information. The full playbook lives at /guides/football/diy-recruiting and was written by Kevin from the same road he walked his brother Kyle through.
Q.07
Why does LSU football recruit nationally instead of mostly from one state?
Because the talent pool a roster of this size needs is wider than any single state can fill. Louisiana leads at 38% of the roster (38 players), but the program rounds out depth by recruiting nationally. The home-state breakdown above shows where the recruiting net pulls hardest.
Q.08
How is this list different from the one on LSU's official roster page?
The official athletics page lists the current roster with names, positions, and class years. We pull from that public source, then resolve and clean the home-state and high-school strings so the feeder map adds up at the state and HS level. We also strip scrape artifacts (bracket escapes, junk sentinels) so the high schools are countable.
Q.09
Why is RawRecruit giving away the rosters and coach contacts for free?
Because the data is the easy part. The hard part is keeping a school list current, filtering programs by your kid's real fit, and tracking coach records as staffs turn over every cycle. The free profile saves the work; the paid tiers exist for families who want deeper fit analytics. The free profile is enough for most.
