We’re less than a week away from the start of the recruiting period for the class of 2026 and we couldn’t think of a better way to kick off season 2 of our Recruit Reflection series than LSU commit Nina Ballou. Nina is a 5x national champion, a 3x Nastia Cup qualifier and was one of the top recruits in the class of 2025. We’re so excited to have Nina back on the show to talk all about her recruiting process from her jam-packed schedule with official visits, when she knew she was meant to go to LSU, and how she shared the news with her friends and family, including the hat ceremony she did at her high school that went viral on TikTok.
