The Class of 2027 recruiting race is heating up, and the Rivals Industry Team Recruiting Rankings are seeing daily shake-ups as commitments flood in ahead of the summer period. With the final weeks of April delivering major announcements—including a pair of five-star pledges—May is already off to a blazing start as top prospects lock in their spots.
Texas A&M, Texas Tech, and Oklahoma have each taken turns at the No. 1 spot this cycle, but as of May 6, the Aggies are running away with the top-ranked class. The usual powerhouses like Ohio State, USC, Georgia, and Oregon round out the top 10, but keep an eye on UCLA and Florida—both have made huge moves over the past month and are climbing fast.
Texas A&M Aggies
13 total commits | 4 five-stars | 8 four-stars | 1 three-star
Top Commit: SAF Kamarui Dorsey (No. 11 nationally, No. 1 SAF)
Texas A&M is sitting pretty for a historic recruiting haul. With four five-star commitments already—double what any other program has at this point—the Aggies are on pace to challenge their own record-setting 2022 class, which remains the highest-ranked class in the modern recruiting era. If they continue trending for even more elite talent, we could be looking at a new No. 1 class in the history books.
Texas Tech Red Raiders
8 total commits | 2 five-stars | 5 four-stars | 1 three-star
Top Commit: DL Jalen Brewster (No. 1 nationally, No. 1 DL)
The Red Raiders have transformed from transfer portal dominators to recruiting trail titans under head coach Joey McGuire. After signing two five-stars last cycle, they already have two more in this one—including the No. 1 overall prospect, Jalen Brewster, and five-star edge rusher Anthony Sweeney. Seven of their eight pledges rank among the top 150 recruits in the class, and high three-star EDGE Brody Pfannenstiel could be the next to jump into blue-chip territory.
Oklahoma Sooners
21 total commits | 2 five-stars | 12 four-stars | 7 three-stars
The Sooners are stacking depth and star power, boasting the largest class in the top 10 with 21 commitments. Their blend of elite talent and volume keeps them firmly in the national title conversation on the recruiting trail.
As summer camps and official visits loom, expect more fireworks. Whether you're tracking future superstars or just love the thrill of the chase, this recruiting cycle is shaping up to be one for the ages—and the gear to match is just as exciting.
