National Signing Day is less than three weeks away (February 7), and as usual, SEC teams are going to be prevalent in the top 20 of team recruiting rankings – though maybe not as highly ranked as usual because of the high number of coaching changes.
We thought we’d look back over the past five recruiting cycles (2013-17; note we did not include 2018 rankings) to see how league schools ranked nationally. Not surprisingly, nine of the 14 schools had consensus recruiting rankings in the top 20 in that five-year stretch and 10 in the top 25.
