TheKnightReport - Rankings Spotlight: Programs overperforming, underperforming in 2025 class
New Syracuse head coach Fran Brown is rolling so far on the recruiting trail.

Rutgers: The recruiting trail in Piscataway has been red hot lately. Rutgers has the No. 6 recruiting class in the nation despite averaging a No. 43 finish over the last four years. If the 2025 recruiting cycle ended today, its 3.07 average stars per commit rating would be the highest it has ever recorded.
In the last 10 years, there have been 260 teams to sign at least 20 players with an average stars per commit rating of at least 3.07 and only nine of them have finished outside the top 35. That is to say, Rutgers will very likely have a higher-ranked recruiting class this year than it did last year and it could be its best class since the 2012 recruiting cycle.
