There’s been a constant debate among college football fans about which stadium is the best in the sport. Even more so, which is the best in each conference?

If you want to play offensive line in college football, there’s arguably nowhere better to do so than in Ann Arbor. But that doesn’t entice everyone.

And though the Wolverines have …

Michigan football has been on a tear on the recruiting trail and it almost seems foreign that the Wolverines haven’t gotten a commitment in nearly a week thanks to the torrid pace pledges have been coming in. One visitor to Ann Arbor in the month of June was 2025 Alpharetta (Ga.) four-star edge rusher Julius Holly. A 6-foot-3, 230-pound dual-sport …

One of the biggest differences since Marcus Freeman took over the Notre Dame football program is its quarterback recruiting. The Irish have stacked up the room with plenty of talent, potentially more than we have ever seen in South Bend. With that comes other teams trying to flip those commitments, as we already have seen Ole Miss trying to do …

ST. AUGUSTINE — UCF fended off a late challenge from one of its fiercest rivals to secure the verbal commitment for a priority target at wide receiver Saturday.

The upcoming 2024 college football season will feature the debut of the new 12-team College Football Playoff format, which is a substantial expansion from the four-team format it had for a decade.

Maryland is having a strong weekend. The Terrapins gained a verbal commitment from in-state outside linebacker Sidney Stewart on Saturday. The Concordia Preparatory School (Towson, Maryland) athlete is rated as a three-star prospect.

Like Stewart, Washington and Shipps …

He is also ranked as the No. 8 prospect …

Ohio State football and its recruiting efforts have been stellar so far this cycle, but you can’t get them all to go your way, not even close.
