SEC class of 2024 recruiting rankings after UGA’s hot start to July
The Georgia Bulldogs have the top ranked recruiting class in the SEC and the country in the 2024 recruiting cycle. Kirby Smart and Georgia are taking care of business on the recruiting trail earlier than usual this year.
One interesting note on the class of 2024 is SEC signees will be the first ones to exclusively play in the expanded conference that will include Oklahoma and Texas. There will be no more SEC East and SEC West.
Georgia looks primed to win the nation’s recruiting crown for the class of 2024. Over the next several months, college football programs will try to secure elite talent before the early signing period.
Looking in the SEC, Florida is off to a very strong start in the class of 2024, but can the Gators impress (and keep) commitments with a great 2023 regular season? We are skeptical.
The Alabama Crimson Tide usually start slowly in the recruiting process. However, Nick Saban and company consistently finish with a top recruiting class. True to form, the Crimson Tide have the nation’s No. 25 recruiting class, per 247Sports.
Notably, only Ohio State has more commitments from five-star recruits than Alabama. At this point, it is more about the quality of the recruit than the quantity, but Missouri fans should be concerned with their start to the 2024 cycle.
