LSU Athletics is adding a new business partner to its lineup, announcing a multi-year deal with REV Fiber that will make the Gonzales-based company the exclusive Official Internet Partner of LSU Athletics starting in the 2026-27 season.
REV Fiber, Louisiana’s largest locally owned, fiber-first internet provider, said the agreement will extend across all LSU sports and deepen its investment in communities around the state through fast, reliable internet and local support.
“Our partnership with LSU Athletics reflects what REV stands for: strong local roots, meaningful community investment, and a commitment to delivering the reliable connectivity Louisiana families and businesses depend on every day,” said Josh Descant, REV’s CEO. “As a Louisiana-grown company, there’s deep, local pride in aligning with a program like LSU Athletics that inspires pride across the state, and we look forward to supporting Tigers fans while continuing to invest in the future of the communities we serve.”
The partnership was unveiled at a recent kick-off event inside Tiger Stadium’s Stadium Club South, where the two sides also introduced marketing elements and creative campaigns built specifically around the deal.
LSU Athletics said the fit goes beyond branding. The agreement includes digital, online, in-game and venue exposure, along with gameday activations. REV Fiber is also backing several Name, Image and Likeness athletes, with an emphasis on Louisiana-based players.
“This partnership reflects our continued commitment to aligning with organizations that share our values and vision for LSU Athletics, said Clay Harris, LSU Athletics Deputy AD/Chief Revenue Officer. “REV Fiber’s investment in Louisiana, our student-athletes and the Tiger fan experience makes them an ideal partner, and we look forward to building on that relationship for years to come.”
LSU Sports Properties General Manager Ben Price said the relationship is built on shared goals and a common approach to community investment.
“At LSU Athletics, we want to work with partners whose goals align with ours,” said LSU Sports Properties General Manager Ben Price. “REV’s commitment to strengthening communities across Louisiana through meaningful engagement, innovation, and investment makes them a natural fit for our program. Together, we look forward to creating opportunities that benefit Tiger fans and the broader Louisiana community.”

LSU Made An Unusual SEC Media Days Call Fans Will Notice
LSUs SEC Media Days group is taking shape, and it comes with a small but noticeable wrinkle for fans following the quarterback situation. The Tigers are set to send head coach Lane Kiffin along with linebackers TJ Dottery and Whit Weeks and tight end Trey'Dez Green, with Kiffin scheduled to speak first before the players take the stage.

Texas Suddenly Face Real Pressure With Top Receiver Commit
Easton Royal remains one of the biggest names in the 2027 receiver class, and for now the top-ranked pass catcher is still committed to Texas. Even so, LSU has stayed in the conversation as one of the schools trying to pry him loose, with Florida also still in the mix as the recruitment quietly stretches on. For a player of Royals profile, every pause in the process matters, especially when the commitment is not being treated like a done deal.
The longer this drags out, the more pressure builds on Texas to hold serve and on LSU to keep making itself impossible to ignore. Recruiting insiders think this could take time before it reaches a final answer, and the timing alone leaves plenty of room for momentum to shift. For LSU, that means the pursuit is still alive, and the next turn in Royals decision could end up saying plenty about where the Tigers stand in the race for elite wideout talent. [Read more 🡒]
