TN Commit's Ranking Over Time, 2026 Class

#51
#51
Updated.

Removed Outlaw and added Wolf.

8 Rankings Improved, 2 stayed the same, 13 fell.

A lot of the scores that fell don't worry me.

One guy reclassified that is top 10, so everyone below dropped one spot just due to that. That one spot drop accounts was all of 2 of our drops . This actually makes all of the gains 1 better than they appear.
4 of the other drops are what I call the "placeholder" rankings that are just lumped together, and always have multiples, see our guys with the 629 and 848 rankings.

Osenda climbed almost 100 spots from 232 to 145. and TJ White jumped from 112 to 68. Both of those jumps are larger than any of the drops we experienced.

Overall we were a net 52 spots gained. and that's even including the drops I qualified above. I don't have enough data on Wolf to say how his rankings have changed as a Vol.

The traitors:

Tyson Bacon continues to plummet he was 90/#292 with us, and is now 87/#932 with Miami
Tyran Evans has slid after his initial Miami bump, went from 88/#500 with us to a peak of 89/#375 with Miami, to now 88/#461.
Brandon Anderson continues his drop from 90/#267 with us to 88/#460 with Missouri
Braylon Outlaw saw a modest jump after dropping us, from 87/#701 to 87/#694
JB Shabazz went from a 91/#247 to 91/249 with UNC
Carson Sneed continues his drop as well from 90/#272 to 88/#532 with UNC.

For what its worth, some "interesting to probably only me" things.

this was probably the most flips and decommits I have tracked in any given single week. 9 flips or decommits, only one of the non-committed committed.

and thats not counting two guys I was tracking as part of the '26 class who reclassified down to '27. One of those might have just dropped football all together.

Ped State lost 2 of the 3 I was tracking for them.
I think literally every single Miami commit I have on my list saw a rankings drop
Pretty much every single ND recruit seemed to jump up the list.
It feels like Bama and Georgia recruits didn't change much on the net, some went up, others down.
None of the UF recruits I am tracking have decommitted. and while its early same for Auburn. may be too early, or could be a sign that NIL is keeping them in place...for now.

took some time to look at the rankings that make up these composites, and there are a couple players getting drug down by one service, its not just King.

Osenda is WAY down Rivals list. they only have him as #43 OT. the other two have him as #4 and #20.

King, as mentioned is hurt by 247. #54 WR, but #7 and #9 on the others.

Rivals is also much lower on Albert than the others, #39DT vs #24 & #29

Rivals is also low on Anderson #36CB vs #16 and #24

Baker is also hurt by rivals #173IOL vs #54, and $62

If those one rankings "averaged out" all of them would see pretty big jumps. when two of the position rankings are with 10 of less of each other, and one is FAR beyond that 10, it raises some questions for me.

Golston and Wolf are strange cases, kinda the opposite of the others. ESPNs ranking is dragging both of them up, Golston #12 DE vs #44 and #51, and Wolf #10TE vs #79 and #80.

updated 11/18/25. dropped Bey
On3 had a big update, which impacted the 247 composite I use. just about everyone I track score changed. and apparently On3 hates us. 17 of our 24 dropped. 1 remained the same, 6 rose.

on the good side, our biggest drop was 13 spots, and it was one of the "place holder" rankings. Ossenda, and Anderson both saw big jumps, Anderson's was 118 spots.

on the net we were +98 spots, over 23 recruits we averaged a 4 spot increase per recruit.

Our average ranking continues to climb 91.97 would be the #218th recruit.

There were 6 commitments or flips. 3 of them went to Ohio State, including Bey.
speaking of OSU, of the 5 players I am tracking of theirs 3 went down, 2 went up, with one of those increases being a single spot.

I am tracking 6 Bama guys, 4 rose, 2 dropped, one only dropped a single spot.

TAMU, Oregon, and Miami players consistently dropped

of course after literally a month of no updates to 247's composite, they have 2 on back to back days. I will work on updating the update.

On3 has become a joke ever since they decided to drop their own rankings during the merger with Rivals and use whatever dumb dipshit Charlie Powers is using

*sigh*
basing the changes noted below on difference yesterday and today.

13 down 2 the same 8 went up.
thankfully once again, the ups outweighed the downs. We gained a net 137 spots, over 23 recruits that is almost 6 spots per recruit UP. we now have an average class ranking of 92.04 which would be the 219th best recruit in the nation.

big change was Javonte Smith +251 spots
biggest drop was Albert -59
TJ White continues his rise.
King finally got a somewhat bump from 247 itself. up to 108 in the composite after 247 changed him from an 89/#56 WR, to a 90/#53 WR @McDad
Blair saw a big jump, 72 spots
Hezekiah Harris continues to slide. lost 63 spots

the place holder rankings once again dropped.

to illustrate why the "place holder" rankings don't bother me when they drop (4 of our drops were these guys)

not only will multiple recruits have the same ranking and score, but 247's composite will list some guys multiple times. This time the ones I saw all had the same grade and ranking, but in the past the same player has two different rankings and scores. It doesn't affect things much, but its just one of those things when you are looking at this data you have to take it with a grade of slaw.
