Updated 2026 On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings

Top prospects are flying off the board this summer as official visit season is in full swing. As teams add commitments left and right, the On3 Industry Team Recruiting Rankings for the 2026 cycle are in flux.
The On3 Industry Team Recruiting Ranking is the most advanced, complete and unbiased ranking measurement in the industry, yet its simplicity makes it easy for fans to follow and understand. It utilizes all four major recruiting media companies: On3, 247Sports, Rivals.com and ESPN. This ranking also solves the problem of varying class sizes during the recruiting cycle. It compiles the highest-rated commits for each team up to a total based on a rolling average of current total commitments among Power 5 schools.
Below are the top 25 classes in the nation, as of June 11:
1. USC — 93.826
28 total commits
1 five-stars | 17 four-stars | 10 three-stars
Top Commit: 5-star TE Mark Bowman, No. 12 NATL. (No. 1 TE)
Lincoln Riley and the Trojans have just about filled out their entire 2026 class already. USC has had consistent momentum on the trail all year long. May brought commitments from three top-100 prospects in Bowman, cornerback Elbert Hill and offensive tackle Keenyi Pepe. An additional four top-100 recruits highlight the stacked class: EDGE Simote Katoanga, CB Brandon Lockhart, QB Jonas Williams and DL Jaimeon Winfield. The Trojans will be tough to beat for the top spot in the team rankings down the stretch.
2. LSU — 93.143
9 total commits
2 five-stars | 6 four-stars | 1 three-star
Top Commit: 5-star WR Tristen Keys, No. 5 NATL. (No. 1 WR)
Eight of the nine commits in LSU’s class are top-200 prospects overall. Keys gave the Tigers a surprise pledge in March and remains in the fold despite others pushing hard this summer. Five of the top 10 players in Louisiana this cycle are already in the class, too, headlined by five-star defensive lineman Richard Anderson. New Orleans WR Jabari Mack is the No. 6 receiver in the cycle, while cornerback Havon Finney is the No. 6 CB in the nation.
3. Ohio State — 92.849
15 total commits
2 five-star | 11 four-stars | 2 three-stars
Top Commit: 5-star WR Chris Henry Jr., No. 24 NATL. (No. 3 WR)
Ohio State now has a trio of blue-chip prospects from California in the class. Henry Jr. is one half of a Mater Dei receiver duo in the mix, alongside four-star Kayden Dixon-Wyatt, another top-100 recruit. Four-star defensive lineman Khary Wilder is the newest addition to the class following a June 10 pledge. Five-star safety Blaine Bradford spurned hometown LSU with a surprise pledge to the Buckeyes on March 31. Six in-state commits are in the class, including offensive tackle Sam Greer and safety Jakob Weatherspoon.
4. Notre Dame — 92.537
16 total commits
1 five-star | 13 four-stars | 2 three-stars
Top Commit: 5-star EDGE Rodney Dunham, No. 14 NATL. (No. 2 EDGE)
While Notre Dame did plenty of early work on the trail this cycle, Marcus Freeman and the Irish have continued to land top targets this spring. April brought their two highest-ranked commitments in Dunham and EDGE Ebenezer Ewetade, On3’s No. 28 overall prospect. Last month, ND added the four-star running back duo of Javian Osborne and Jonaz Walton. Four offensive linemen are in the class, highlighted by IOL Tyler Merrill and IOL Gregory Patrick, both of whom are top-150 recruits overall.
5. Georgia — 92.227
14 total commits
1 five-star | 10 four-stars | 3 three-stars
Top Commit: Five-Star Plus+ QB Jared Curtis, No. 2 NATL. (No. 1 QB)
To no surprise, Georgia picked up some serious steam on the trail heading into the summer. Curtis re-committed to the Bulldogs on May 5, choosing them over Oregon in a tight battle. He was one of five pledges for UGA last month, alongside top-100 safety Jordan Smith, in-state athlete Ryan Mosley and others. On3’s No. 4 CB Justice Fitzpatrick committed on June 3. He is the younger brother of stud NFL DB Minkah Fitzpatrick. Four-star WR Vance Spafford and safety Zech Fort are other top commits in the mix for Kirby Smart to date.
6. Texas A&M — 91.642
13 total commits
0 five-star | 12 four-stars | 0 three-stars
Top Commit: 4-star WR Aaron Gregory, No. 72 NATL. (No. 9 WR)
Mike Elko and the A&M staff have gone all over the country for their recruiting wins this cycle. Gregory and his four-star EDGE teammate Jordan Carter hail from Georgia. Top-100 corner Victor Singleton is one of two blue-chippers from Ohio in the mix. Three four-stars from California are committed, including receiver Madden Williams. Four-star quarterback Helaman Casuga will head to College Station from Utah. Jonathan Hatton Jr., the No 6 running back in the cycle, is one of just two in-state commits thus far.
7. Clemson — 91.634

Clemson got scorching hot in March, adding eight commitments. Burroughs, IOL Chancellor Barclay, receiver Connor Salmin and IOL Grant Wise were among the additions that month. Tigers assistant Matt Luke has an elite haul in his OL room. Earlier this month, No. 5 IOL Leo Delaney and No. 10 IOL Carter Scruggs both joined the fold. Four-star safety Kentavion Anderson is a top-100 prospect in the On300. Tait Reynolds is the No. 18 QB in the cycle and is also an Elite 11 Finalist.
8. Miami — 91.031
13 total commits
1 five-star | 7 four-stars | 5 three-stars
Top Commit: Five-Star Plus+ OT Jackson Cantwell, No. 1 NATL.
Mario Cristobal and the Hurricanes won out for Cantwell in May, beating Georgia, Oregon and Ohio State. The top-ranked tackle is one of six offensive linemen in the fold in Coral Gables to date and will look to be a recruiting beacon down the stretch. Three blue-chip corners are in the class in Jaelen Waters, Jontavious Wyman and Camdin Portis. Four-star linebacker Jordan Campbell is the No. 8 LB in the nation, while in-state quarterback Dereon Coleman is now the No. 14 signal-caller this cycle.
9. Alabama — 90.916
6 total commits
1 five-star | 5 four-stars | 0 three-stars
Top Commit: 5-star CB Jorden Edmonds, No. 22 NATL. (No. 2 CB)
While Kalen DeBoer and the Bama staff have just six commitments to date, they are trending for multiple uncommitted five-stars. Edmonds gave the Tide a pledge in March and continues to see his stock rise. Top-100 CB Zyan Gibson got things started with a commitment on Christmas Eve. EDGE Jamarion Matthews pledged in February and is On3’s No. 64 overall prospect. Four-star IOL Samuelu Utu is the latest addition to the class. He’s the No. 14 IOL in the cycle.
10. Oregon — 90.681
7 total commits
1 five-star | 4 four-stars | 2 four-stars
Top Commit: 5-star TE Kendre Harrison, No. 20 NATL. (No. 2 TE)
Dan Lanning and the Ducks are maneuvering through some tough losses on the trail, but they remain in position to contend for multiple five-stars moving forward. A top-five class will likely be within reach for Oregon come December. Harrison and No. 5 running back Tradarian Ball have both announced that they’ve shut down their respective recruitments. Three other blue-chippers are in the class to date: DL Tony Cumberland, LB Tristan Phillips and safety Xavier Lherisse.
