College football’s early signing period is less than three months away, but plenty of talented players are still on the board, including nine uncommitted EDGE rushers in the 2022 On300 rankings.

In total, 74 of the top 300 players in the country—just under 25 percent—have yet to announce their college commitments, but most of those will do so between now and December 15, when the first signing period officially opens. Skipping the spring semester of high school and enrolling early has become the norm in college football in recent years, with programs like Alabama, Clemson, Georgia, Oklahoma and others bringing typically bringing in more than a dozen players after the semester break.

Four of the top five players in the 2022 class have yet to commit, including No. 1 overall player Marvin Jones Jr. On3 compiled notes and intel on all 74 uncommitted On300 prospects to keep you informed about where each player stands in their recruiting process.

Marvin Jones Jr. 

Background: Fort Lauderdale (Fla.) American Heritage
Ranking: On300 No. 1
Schools considering: Alabama, Florida State, Oklahoma, Clemson, Ohio State

Latest intel: Jones Jr. is one of the biggest prizes of the 2022 class, and all the big dogs are after him. He’ll be in Norman to visit Oklahoma this weekend, and he has November visits to Florida State and Alabama scheduled.

Enai White

Background: Philadelphia Imhotep Institute
Ranking: On300 No. 27
Schools considering: Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Texas A&M

Latest intel: White had an impressive visit to Georgia last weekend, and he says he plans to take visits to his three other finalists but hasn’t set them yet.

Omari Abor

Background: Duncanville (Tex.) High
Ranking: On300 No. 30
Schools considering:
Alabama, Texas, Texas A&M, Ohio State

Latest intel:
Texas A&M has been making a big push as of late for Abor, but Ohio State and Alabama are right there in the thick of it. This one could stretch all the way to January, so it’s unlikely anything big happens soon.

Cyrus Moss

Background: Las Vegas Bishop Gorman
Ranking: On300 No. 44
Schools considering:
Oregon, Alabama, Florida, Notre Dame

Latest intel:
Moss was supposed to visit The Swamp for the Florida-Alabama game, but that was postponed. He’ll now be in Gainesville October 9, and he also has a visit to Alabama set for November. He tripped to Oregon and Notre Dame over the summer, and right now the Ducks are seen as the favorite.

DJ Wesolak

Background: Boonville (Mo.) High
Ranking: On300 No. 95
Schools considering:
Clemson, Florida, USC, Alabama, Missouri

Latest intel:
Things have been quiet on Wesolak’s recruiting front, though he did take a visit to Penn State for the “White Out” game vs. Auburn. But the Nittany Lions have reportedly cooled on him. In-state Missouri has made an impression, but this one doesn’t seem like it will be decided any time soon.

Joshua Josephs

Background: Kennesaw (Ga.) North Cobb
Ranking: On300 No. 148
Schools considering:
Michigan, Penn State, Kentucky, Tennessee

Latest intel:
Josephs took an unofficial visit to Michigan two weekends ago, and he’s scheduled to see Tennessee next month. Those two look to be on top.

Kenyatta Jackson

Ranking: On300 No. 159
Schools considering:
Alabama, Ohio State, Oklahoma

Latest intel:
Jackson said recently that he expects to visit Oklahoma and Ohio State sometime over the next month or so before making a decision. Alabama is in the mix, but their interest hasn’t been as strong.

James Pearce

Background: Charlotte (NC) Chambers
Ranking: On300 No. 176
Schools considering:
Tennessee, Ole Miss, Missouri, South Carolina

Latest intel:
Pearce visited Tennessee during Week 2 and saw Missouri over the summer, but Gamecocks, who he’s visited twice, look to be the leader right now.

DeSean Brown

Background: Choctaw (Okla.) High
Ranking: On300 No. 252
Schools considering: TCU, Oklahoma State

Latest intel: Brown visited TCU in August and saw Oklahoma State last spring. He doesn’t have any more visits scheduled at the moment, but that could change quickly.
