New England C/O 2027 Ranking Update Summary: By The Numbers
New England Region Class of 2027 โ Spring/Summer Evaluation Period Update
What an exhilarating time it is for college football scouting in the New England region! Following an extensive evaluation period during the spring and summer, we are excited to introduce the addition of 99 ranked players and 13 players on our Watch List, bringing the total of new prospects in the Class of 2027 database of the Prep Redzone New England Ranking list and Watch List to 112! ๐ Many of these emerging prospects are student-athletes who have transferred to different schools. Some have chosen to reclassify into a lower grade upon entering their new institution, while others have made straightforward transfers. Furthermore, we've welcomed new names that have surfaced since our last update, significantly enriching our talent pool. This season, we have also noticed several fresh talents and a small group of direct transfers from public to private high schools.
This update reflects a prospect and a recruit recruitment activities, verbal offers earned, and scout observations at spring and summer showcases and camps, which are known to New England scouts from March 1, 2025, to July 1, 2025. If you believe our team of scouts missed a prospect, please alert us by emailing me at: Roger@prepredzone.com. As the competition intensifies, these prospects are ready to make their mark!
Below, I have detailed the number of prospects assessed during this update, along with the college division level our scouts predict they have the talent to compete at after high school. I want to remind all readers that the number next to a player's name is not the most crucial factor when reviewing our rankings. Instead, the key aspect is the projected college level at which each player was evaluated, which is essential for their recruitment. Prospects can reach out to Coach Silva at Roger@prepredzone.com for how to retrieve their NCAA College Division Level Projection โGrade,โ as assigned by our scouts for all ranked prospects on the Class of 2027 New England Ranking List.
