The Georgia Bulldogs continue to have the best recruiting class in the SEC and in the nation in the class of 2024. Things are heating up with SEC recruiting. The conference has five programs in the top 10 of the national recruiting rankings and 10 programs in the top 20.
Georgia looks primed to retake the country’s (and SEC’s) recruiting crown in the 2024 recruiting cycle. Recruits are committing earlier than ever, so fans should anticipate many flipped commitments and a lot of drama down the stretch.
The Alabama Crimson Tide could give Georgia a run for its money in the class of 2024, but the Crimson Tide will need to add many more commitments.
Surprisingly, Florida is off to an elite start in the class of 2024, but will Gator recruits stick with their pledges? We think Florida will struggle during the fall and ultimately lose a significant portion of its recruiting class.
SEC signees in the 2024 recruiting cycle will be the first ones to exclusively play in the expanded conference that will feature Oklahoma and Texas.
