Our Class of 2026 Rankings received a big update as we grew the list to 365 players. Our rankings alone jumped from “Top 75” to 145 of the top sophomore prospects across the state.
To kick off coverage of this class, I wanted to roll out some “Prospect Profiles” of each of the ranked prospects. In these prospect profiles, I will highlight important info about that prospect, including measurables, links for their Twitter/Hudl, notable speed and strength marks (40-yard times and max-out lifts), offers, and locate some strengths for each player. All 40-yard times, track times, vertical jumps, and lifting stats come directly from the player’s Hudl or Twitter or have been recorded at a showcase I have attended.
Next up, let’s take a look at the RBs, who are starting to develop into a solid group. We ranked 16 total RBs, with some of them holding legit two-way potential. These are RB #11-16
Check out the full 365-prospect rankings and watchlist HERE.
