With 2024 game/campus visits and now January 2025 UVs in the books, figured it was a good time to set the 2026 board for going forward. There's a roughly monthlong dead period that extends into early March after next weekend, so the next big visit weekends will come during spring practice. After that there will be Orange Carpet Day 2025, and then OVs.
Therefore this board is just a start and will be added to and further refined. But here's how I see it as of now. I'm sure I've left some guys off so please feel free to let me know.
FWIW, the way this class is currently set with our existing commitments and the degree to which we're already deeply involved with a myriad of elite prospects, IMO there's a real chance we end up in the Top 5 but that the floor is absolutely another Top 10 ranking.
