As the dead period for college football recruiting ends, we thought it’d be a great time to do another check-in where teams rank nine months before the early signing period opens. Being really high in the rankings right now doesn’t guarantee a high finish but it certainly goes a long way toward preventing a brutal end in the rankings.
The same goes for those with a slow start. Just because USC isn’t ranked in the top 50 right now doesn’t mean they won’t get commitments from a couple of highly regarded talents and quickly soar up the rankings. Will they be able to get enough to get back into the top ten like last year? Time will undoubtedly tell.
Notre Dame checked in at second place when we checked things out a month ago but due to no new commitments since fell a few spots. The Irish are hosting their pro day Friday and have a big on-campus recruiting weekend that they hope will help result in a few more commitments before too long.
We’ll continue to do this on at least a monthly basis throughout the non-game months and check in on how the team rankings are shaping up. As of March 24, 2023, here are the top 50 team recruiting rankings on the 247Sports composite.
