The LSU football staff and head coach Brian Kelly have made a bold move by extending a prestigious scholarship offer to Baton Rouge’s Elijah Haven, the No. 1 quarterback in the country. The news spread like wildfire after Haven shared the announcement on social media Friday night, sending excitement rippling through the LSU fan base.
Haven, the coveted Class of 2027 recruit, has been on the radar of LSU offensive coordinator Joe Sloan for over a year. His exceptional skills and potential caught Sloan’s attention, and the official offer was made less than 24 hours ago, solidifying LSU’s interest in the talented quarterback.
Despite being courted by top colleges across the nation, Haven chose to attend LSU’s home opener against Nicholls State and again last weekend for their thrilling game against UCLA. His impressive freshman year at Baton Rouge’s Dunham School in 2023 catapulted him to the top of recruiting lists, making him one of the most sought-after recruits in the country.
I want to thank God above for the abilities and talents He has given me. I have had the opportunity to build great relationships with many coaches and I am honored to say I have received an offer from Louisiana State University!@CoachJoeSloan @CoachBrianKelly pic.twitter.com/8GpdXYf3WL

As Haven embarks on his sophomore season, he continues to dazzle on the field, catching the eye of college coaches from coast to coast. LSU has extended an open invitation for Haven to attend as many home games as possible this season, demonstrating their strong interest in recruiting the hometown hero.
Coach Kelly’s bold move sends a clear message: LSU is all-in on Elijah Haven. The Tigers are rolling out the red carpet, and it’s hard to blame them – Haven’s talent and potential are undeniable. If he chooses to don the purple and gold, LSU fans could be witnessing the dawn of a new era in Tiger Stadium.
