Final 2026 Rankings Update: New Additions Q2

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>All told, Prep RedZone South Carolina has added 129 new players to our Class of 2026 rankings.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>And we didn't boost our total figure to 621 by accident.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>From the coast to the Georgia line, the Lowcountry up to the northern border, and all points in between, the Palmetto State is loaded with the types of players who dictated much of the 2025 football season. We saw that the preseason all the way through the Weekend of Champions. We had as many as seven scouts in the field every week, evaluating players and determining exactly where they fell. Every time we turned around, we saw something else we really liked.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's led us to the final update for the Class of 2026. These players have now expired their high school eligibility, but not before earning a number next to their name.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Let's get to the second crop of them here.
