Lane Kiffin and LSU have recorded another major win on the college football recruiting trail. On Monday, the Tigers landed Terrance Smith, a four-star interior offensive lineman.

Now, LSU has brought in a new running back to run behind Smith, according to Hayes Fawcett of Rivals.

Four-star running back Tre Segarra has committed to LSU, choosing the Tigers over South Carolina, Tennessee, Florida, and Stanford.

Segarra, who is from Duncan, South Carolina, and whose parents are both South Carolina alums, is coming off a solid junior season at Byrnes High School. He ran for 1,460 yards with 17 touchdowns. He also caught 19 receptions for 198 yards and four scores. The running back was set to have visits with Notre Dame and South Carolina later in the month, but after an official visit to LSU, he has decided to join Lane Kiffin.

Segerra is a multi-sport athlete who also plays soccer and wrestles. He has the profile of a solid running back at the Power 4 level, according to Gabe Brooks of 247Sports.

“P4 prospect who projects to the high-major level as a potential early contributor with the physical and athletic tools to become a higher-volume, NFL Draft-caliber back,” Brooks wrote. “Deftly leverages angles off/squeezes blocks to enter second level with urgency. Soccer experience shows in sudden redirection and acceleration/deceleration skill.”

Segarra is the 11th commitment for LSU in the class of 2027, and the second running back to join the class, along with Brennen Lacey, a three-star recruit. LSU has the 12th-ranked class in the nation and sixth-ranked in the SEC.
