After five months of anticipation, the latest Class of ‘26 rankings update is here. The upcoming senior class has put in a tremendous amount of work throughout this past spring and summer, and this update is a reflection of that. This massive update includes a multitude of stock risers, over 80 newcomers, and a revamped Top 10.    The Top 10 is where we'll start the coverage for this update. This group of elite talent really needs no introduction, as most of these players have made headlines over the past several months. So, without further ado, here are the top seniors heading into the 2025 season.   [player_tooltip player_id='1229117' first='Ian' last='Premer'] - Great Bend, 6'6”, 230, TE   In this July update Premer of Great Bend reclaimed the No. 1 overall ranking. He truly is the best all-around athlete in this class, and his play on the hardwood and the diamond can back that up. Premer is an exciting player to watch, and Notre Dame's coaching staff should be jumping for joy that they landed a commitment from him.   [player_tooltip player_id='904447' first='James' last='Dunnigan Jr']. - Manhattan, 6'3”, 190, DB/ATH   Dunnigan Jr. climbed to the No. 2 overall spot in this update. He's gained quite a bit of national recognition this year after competing in high-profile 7-On-7 showcases, as well as playing in the Under Armour All-American Game in January.    [player_tooltip player_id='401683' first='Kaden' last='Snyder'] - Salina Central, 6'6”, 290, OL   Snyder slid a few spots this time around, but that is by no means a slight to the Kansas-commit. When it comes to the top of the rankings, each of these players have a strong case to be considered No. 1. He is still however the top-ranked offensive lineman in the class.   [player_tooltip player_id='1114737' first='Braden' last='Wilmes'] - Free State, 6'8”, 295, OL   Wilmes of Free State was one of the first prospects to verbally commit in this class, and he's stayed strong with his commitment to the Clemson Tigers. The massive offensive lineman maintains his status as a Top 5 prospect.    [player_tooltip player_id='585905' first='Hunter' last='Higgins'] - Maize South, 6'5”, 250, DL   Higgins of Maize South rounds off the Top 5. The 6-foot-5 pass rusher holds on to the top defensive line ranking through yet another update.    [player_tooltip player_id='1287315' first='Joshua' last='Galbreath'] - Lawrence, 6'3”, 205, Edge/ATH   Coming in at No. 6 overall is Galbreath of Lawrence. He's another talented pass rusher committed to the Kansas Jayhawks. Galbreath's now the top-ranked Edge prospect in the class.    [player_tooltip player_id='1226637' first='Maxwell' last='Robinson'] - Derby, 6'4”, 285, OL   Robinson moved up one spot in this update and he's still the 3rd ranked offensive lineman in the class. He's one of the last top-ranked prospects still available in our Class of ‘26 rankings. All eyes are now on him as folks eagerly await the announcement of his commitment.    [player_tooltip player_id='595720' first='Lamarcus' last='Barber'] - Mill Valley, 6'3”, 300, OL   Joining the Top 10 is Barber of Mill Valley. Barber joined this elite group after announcing his commitment to the Kansas State Wildcats back in April. With four Division I bound offensive linemen now in the Top 10, it's safe to say this position group is the strength of the class.    [player_tooltip player_id='780113' first='Tyren' last='Parker'] - Shawnee Heights, 6'4”, 185, WR   Parker of Shawnee Heights continues to sit atop the receiver group in this update. With a majority of Heights' key starters returning this season, Parker and the Thunderbirds have the firepower to go on a run this fall.    [player_tooltip player_id='585904' first='Jaylen' last='Mason'] - Wichita NW, 6'3”, 195, QB   No surprises with the final spot in the Top 10. Mason of Wichita Northwest has consistently been one of the top players in this class since his freshman year. The dual-threat signal caller is gearing up for a big senior campaign.
