So much of the focus in college football is on the end of the regular season, championship weekend and the college football playoff and bowl games. There is also the class of 2023 as schools look to finish out their classes prior to the three-day signing period next month that runs Dec. 21-23.
That said, the 2024 class is already being built and Notre Dame is leading the way with seven commitments. There are also a quartet of five-star prospects already off the board even with Signing Day being 13 months away.
With 247Sports releasing its updated class of 2024 rankings, we take a look at the top classes being built already.
The SEC has four schools in the top 10, and the ACC, Pac-12 and the Big Ten each have one. So does the Big Ten, but it may not be who you expect. Also, Notre Dame is not the only independent making an appearance in the collection of schools. BYU, which is heading to the Big 12 with Cincinnati, UCF and Houston when Texas and Oklahoma leave for the SEC (2025 is the target), remains an independent and made the list.
Here is a look at the top 10 classes in 2024.Â
