Stacy Gage brings SEC-ready depth, size, and upside to LSU’s backfield
In the 2025 season, Stacy Gage gave LSU a physical 5-10, 204-pound running back with burst and versatility, logging 13 carries for 63 yards and a touchdown at UCF before arriving in Baton Rouge with three years of eligibility left[1][10]. He was a former 4-star prep talent and top-30 running back recruit, and early LSU coverage says he has impressed in practice enough to push for meaningful rotational work behind the Tigers’ deeper backfield[1][7][8]. If you want a back who adds toughness, developmental upside, and reliable depth rather than instant star power, Gage fits the bill nicely[1][7].
