Kim Mulkey’s Staff, LSU Women’s Basketball Visits No. 5 Rated Player in America
The Tigers checked in on the program’s top target in the 2027 Recruiting Cycle, coveted Louisiana native.
Oak Grove (La.) five-star forward Caroline Bradley remains the top priority for Kim Mulkey and the LSU Tigers in the 2027 Recruiting Cycle as she navigates an impressive sophomore campaign.
Bradley, the No. 5 overall prospect in her class, stands at 6-foot-5 with the “Who’s Who” of women’s basketball battling it out for her services.
It’s clear LSU has the edge here in her recruitment with Mulkey and Co. hosting Bradley for multiple unofficial trips to Baton Rouge, but the top programs will continue ramping up their push.
She’s just a few hours down the road with the Tigers utilizing the hometown sell to their advantage during the recruiting process.
On Tuesday, LSU assistant coach Kaylin Rice hit the road to visit with Bradley once again while watching her Oak Grove squad take the floor for their playoff matchup.
Bradley has received an offer from the Tigers along with prized programs such as Dawn Staley’s South Carolina Gamecocks after receiving the call over the summer.
But LSU is doing its due diligence here.
Along with multiple face-to-face conversations, the program has allowed Bradley to come visit for game days to soak in the atmosphere of the Pete Maravich Assembly Center.
It’ll be a battle for the No. 1 player in Louisiana, but Mulkey doesn’t swing and miss in the Bayou State after signing Mikaylah Williams, the No. 1 player in the state in the 2023 Recruiting Cycle, and Jada Richard, the No. 1 player in the state in the 2024 Recruiting Cycle.
LSU did not take a player from Louisiana in the 2025 class after electing to sign a quartet of five-star prospects in Divine Bourrage, ZaKiyah Johnson, Grace Knox and Bella Hines.
In the 2026 Recruiting Cycle, Louisiana doesn’t have a player rated in the ESPN60 to this point, but it remains early in the process.
Now, focus remains in the 2027 Recruiting Cycle with Bradley the Louisiana gem Mulkey and the Tigers are turning up the heat for.
LSU’s most recent 2025 Signing Class has stolen headlines as the top-ranked class in America with a pair of McDonald’s All-Americans set to head to Baton Rouge over the summer.
