On Monday, LSU football received a significant commitment when four-star cornerback Havon Finney declared his intention to play for the Tigers. Finney reclassified to be a member of the 2026 class after having previously been a member of the 2027 recruiting class. Finney is one of the best CBs in the class, even if he is a year younger than the others.
Hayes Fawcett said, “BREAKING: Elite 2026 CB Havon Finney Jr. has Committed to LSU, he tells me for @on3recruits.” “The Los Angeles, California, 6’3 170 CB picked the Tigers over Oregon and USC.” Prior to reclassifying, he was rated as a Top 5 Recruit (No. 1 CB) in 2027.
247Sports rates Havon Finney as a four-star recruit. He is ranked #10 in the state of California, #7 as a CB, and #54 in the 2026 class. At the moment, Finney is enrolled at Chatsworth, California’s Sierra Canyon High School. Even though USC and Oregon were closer to home, Finney preferred LSU football.
Finney’s scouting report states that he recently decided to reclassify into the class of ’26. Given that Finney has started every game since his rookie season while facing one of the most difficult schedules in the country, the decision makes a lot of sense. He possesses all the qualities you’re searching for in a next-level corner. He can run, is a plus athlete, and has a big, 6-2 frame with plenty of room to put on weight. He anchored the school’s 4X100 relay squad and set multiple sub 11.0-100-meter records as a freshman, including a personal best of 10.81.
