April Recruiting Wins Exclude ACC and Big 12 in Top 2025 Commits

In April 2025, the ACC and Big 12 were notably absent from the top recruiting wins for the 2025 class, according to On3 Sports. Leading programs such as Michigan, Texas, USC, Notre Dame, Ohio State, and Georgia attracted elite prospects, including four-star recruits like Nate Marshall, Matt Zollers, Husan Longstreet, and Matai Tagoa'i. The ACC's highest commit was Soloman Thomas to Florida State, ranked No. 20 nationally, while the Big 12's top commit was Kendarius Reddick to UCF at No. 95.

Additional reports noted the evolving recruiting landscape. For instance, on April 7, On3 highlighted that the ACC places several teams in the top 30 of the recruiting rankings with Clemson leading the way. Meanwhile, the Oklahoma Sooners are trending for additional key prospects, further intensifying the competitive battle as conferences like the SEC and Big Ten continue to dominate the recruiting scene.
