He earned an offer from Tennesseewith a strong showing at the Vols’ latest camp, and while he’s already halfway through a full schedule of official visits this month, he said the offer from Tennessee didn’t come too late for the Vols to become a factor in his recruitment.
The No. 1 most important factor in building a national championship roster in college football is acquiring a host of four- and five-star talent. The Blue-Chip Ratio remains a predictive measure of which programs secured the weapons necessary to compete at the highest level of the sport, as it proves on an annual basis that only teams with a higher percentage of blue-chip players than not can win the national title. Landing hordes of Top247 recruits is, thus, paramount in maintaining a status as a frontrunner in both the power conference and national landscapes.
Almost all of the top recruiting classes for the 2024 cycle featured at least one five-star commit, and each of them were loaded with Top247 talent with the potential to contribute early and develop into college football stars.
