Top committed prospects in 2027 cycle so far

With the 2026 recruiting cycle moving lightning fast from a commitment standpoint, some are beginning to take a harder look at the top talent that resides at the top of the board in the 2027 class.

There’s already been plenty of pledges made by incoming juniors. Many more are already eyeing decisions this fall, too. With the recruiting landscape ever-changing, there’s no time to waste when it comes to acquiring blue-chip commitments.

Plays with a high motor and pursues plays from sideline to sideline. Productive in his first two varsity seasons at Savannah (Ga.)
