While prospects still have their all-important senior seasons to play, the past two months provided 247Sports with extremely valuable data points in the evaluation process. Not only have the Under Armour Next Camp Series and Elite 11 Regional tour held events around the country, but there have been spring practices and showcases along with various 7-on-7 tournaments.
As the spring camp circuit starts to wind down and summer official visits ramp up, 247Sports updated its Top247 rankings for the Class of 2025 and rolled out its first 32-player, five-star field for the cycle. There were already 16 five-star prospects in the class, so Wednesday’s updated meant for 16 more (No. 16 overall prospect, USC quarterback commit Julian Lewis, was already a five-star and is omitted from this list).
247Sports is the industry-leader in recruiting rankings and coverage. New five-stars are committed to USC, Georgia, Florida State, Texas A&M, Auburn and Ole Miss.
Here’s a look at the new five-star prospects.
The rankings at 247Sports project towards the NFL Draft, so the 32 five-stars reflect the 32 first-round picks. We used to be a little more conservative when it came to awarding a fifth star, but we decided to get more aggressive with the rankings and try to provide fans with a better idea of who we believe at this stage has the best chance of being a college football superstar and a potential Day 1 NFL Draft selection.
Final rankings for the Class of 2025 will occur in January of 2025.
