Stacy Gage, a standout running back for the UCF Knights, has made the decision to join Lane Kiffin and the LSU Tigers. This move came after Gage took a visit to Baton Rouge on Saturday, which he announced through his social media channels. The 5-foot-10, 205-pound athlete was initially signed by UCF as a three-star, Top-50 running back in the 2024 Recruiting Cycle. He had multiple offers from prestigious programs such as the Alabama Crimson Tide, Arizona State Sun Devils, and Arkansas Razorbacks.

Gage spent two seasons with the Knights in Orlando, choosing to stay close to home. His time at UCF included contributions during his second year with the program in 2025. In the previous season, he recorded 13 carries for 63 yards and one touchdown. Now, he is looking for a fresh start with the LSU Tigers, who have been actively recruiting talent through the NCAA Transfer Portal.

LSU has already secured four running backs via the transfer portal to join Harlem Berry and Caden Durham in the 2026 season. This move highlights the team’s strategy to bolster its offensive line with experienced players.
