Rivals released their top 300 rankings for the class of 2026. There were several players that rose up the rankings significantly. Georgia Bulldogs wide receiver commit Craig Dandridge and offensive tackle commit Ekene Ogboko were among the top ten highest risers in the nation.
Ekene Ogboko is a four-star recruit, according to the Rivals recruiting website. The 6-foot-6, 310-pound offensive tackle is from South Gardner High School in Garner, North Carolina. He committed to the Georgia Bulldogs on June 18. He is ranked as the No. 59 prospect in the nation, rising up almost 40 spots from No. 106 in the nation.
Craig Dandridge, meanwhile, is a much bigger riser than Ogboko. Craig Dandridge is a 6-foot, 175-pound receiver from Cambridge High School in Milton, Georgia. He is ranked as a four-star on Rivals, but he rose up over 150 slots from No. 236 to No. 76 in the nation.
Unfortunately, it isn’t enough to push Georgia’s recruiting class of 2026 to the No. 1 ranking. The Bulldogs still have the No. 2 class in the country and the No. 1 class in the SEC, according to Rivals. That is despite losing out on five-star linebacker Tyler Atkinson to Texas and seeing five-star defensive tackle James Johnson flip to Texas.
