<p>This is a bittersweet moment as the Prep Redzone Iowa crew did the final update to the Class of 2025 rankings. Seeing some of these big names leave us on Friday nights will be tough, but we are more than excited to start following their careers on Saturdays. There was a lot of movement in the rankings that saw stars establish themselves as elite prospects, players stepping into starting roles, and some made huge advances in their development from junior to senior year. Several prospects have already named their home for the next four years, but there are still hundreds of uncommitted prospects that could help bolster your squad. To showcase the deep amount of talent still available, I selected some of the top uncommitted prospects to form the 2025 All-Uncommitted Team.</p>
