Last week we wrote about Clemson getting red-hot on the recruiting trail. You thought Dabo Swinney was going to let Tiger recruiting slip after a few coaches departed. Clemson is a national brand now.
Clemson isn’t the only ACC team off to a strong summer of recruiting.
Louisville is tearing it up too landing arguably the nation’s number 1 running back in Rueben Owens, and only Clemson has more 4-star+ commits.
Georgia Tech surprisingly is putting together a reasonable class. If this is Geoff Collins’s last year in Atlanta, he’s going to make one great recruiting coordinator somewhere.
Wake Forest and Pittsburgh have parlayed fine 2021 seasons into solid recruiting starts as well.
Think about how that would look in a football season if the ACC had 5 or 6 top 25 teams and 3 or 4 more in the receiving votes category. Don’t let anyone tell you differently, it starts with recruiting.
Take a look at the current rankings below.
There’s still several months before the December signing period, so some teams have to hold their classes together while other need to get going.
