Recruiting is the lifeblood of college sports. Ohio State has the top-ranked college football recruiting class that will sign national letters of intent in the spring. Ohio State boasts three of the top twelve recruits for 2025. This is important because it means Columbus, Ohio, University is reloading and will be excellent moving forward, and these top recruits will probably play in the National Football League. This will be the first article in a series about college football recruiting. This should reveal not only the top players now but also NFL talent and potentially Hall of Fame players.
2025 Top Recruiting Classes in College Football
The top football class of 2025 belongs to Ohio State. This is both important and unusual. It is unusual because Ohio State is usually ranked in the top five recruiting classes in football but is rarely number one. The team scores are simply the aggregate of the individuals in the class. Ohio State being ranked first in the recruiting rankings is important because it means there is a steady stream of talent heading to Columbus.
The University of Alabama is currently ranked number two in college football recruiting in 2025. They are usually ranked number one. The University of Georgia is ranked third. If Alabama is not number one, it will be Georgia. Louisiana State University is ranked number four, and Auburn University is number five in the 2025 college football recruiting ranking.
The rest of the top ten include Texas, Tennessee, Texas A&M, Oregon, and USC. The rich get richer. These recruiting rankings will likely be the polls in a few years, and these teams will make the expanded college football playoff. Next, we will turn to individual recruiting. There you can see Ohio State is doing well too.
2025 Top College Recruits
Bryce Underwood, a recruit for LSU, is the top overall recruit in the 2025 class. Tavion St. Clair, a quarterback committed to Ohio State, is the number two overall recruit. Keelon Russell, also a quarterback, is committed to Alabama, and Elijah Griffin is the fourth overall recruit and committed to Georgia. The fifth overall recruit, named Devin Sanchez, is a defensive cornerback committed to Ohio State. Jonah Williams is committed to Texas and is the sixth overall recruit.
The seventh overall recruit is David Sanders Jr., committed to Tennessee. The eighth overall recruit is Dakorien Moore, committed to Oregon. The ninth overall recruit is Justus Terry, committed to Georgia, as is the tenth overall recruit, Isaiah Gibson. The twelfth overall recruit is Na’eem Offord, a cornerback committed to Ohio State, though he is rumored to likely ‘flip’ to Auburn.
Conclusion
Recruiting rankings are important because they predict the future. While recruits may ‘flip’ schools, it is unlikely at this point. When choosing a school, recruits factor in NIL money, as well as the fit of the football team, relationships with coaches, and the likelihood that playing at the school will help the recruit get to the National Football League. Readers will know these names, and it is possible, if not likely, that these 2025 recruits will not only make it to the National Football League but will be All-Pros there and maybe even make the Hall of Fame.
