'26 Recruiting Rankings Tracker (7th/9th)

[mrmax86]

This is a tracker where we can go back and see historically where we are and where we've been for recruiting rankings, per the 247 Composite. I am also tracking On3 live rankings at the bottom. I update pretty regularly.

23 commitments

As of right now (11/21/2025), we are 7th on the 247 Composite and 9th on the On3 Consensus.

If recruits have made a significant jump in their average rating since they committed, I've updated their score in green.

2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026

Updated after adding Braylon Outlaw. He has no composite rating on 247 yet, so I'll update when they take care of that.

Assuming he gets roughly an 85 rating, we should jump to 5th place.

*Braylon Outlaw does not have a 247 Composite Rating. These numbers are estimates assuming he gets a ranking of 85, which is his industry average.

As of right now (11/20/2024), we are 5th on the 247 Composite and 2nd on the On3 Consensus.

2019 | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | 2023 | 2024 | 2025 | 2026

Updated, as Braylon Outlaw drove us up to 5th on 247 and 2nd on On3!

Updated after adding CJ Edwards. He is not currently ranked, so we'll see where we are after they update. We are close enough to Illinois that I would think that we'd pass them for 6th.

Yep. Updated.

 

[easttnbuck]

With the portal, I have stopped thinking this matters as much. adding established players thru the portal makes more sense in a little t of ways, especially on the OLine

 

[mrmax86]

Looks like we've bumped up 1 position in both major services recently, without new commitments. Updated.

Even with the portal it still matters a lot.

Nope. Recruiting is still the most important method for talent acquisition. It's the equivalent to the draft in pro sports. You win championships by drafting well and supplementing through free agency. You don't win Super Bowls by building the core of your team through free agency.

Slow time for us. No action for a month and we've dropped in both rankings. We are close to a large group of schools if we land a couple recruits. Not a big deal.

Updated after losing Tyson Bacon. Nothing to worry about from my perspective, we are just going slower at this point in the cycle. I think we've been distracted a bit lately lol.
