The early signing period is here, and teams around college football will sign most, if not all, of their respective 2025 classes who will soon grace the gridiron.

Most players will sign Wednesday, although some recruitments often last until Friday, as the early signing period lasts from Dec. 4-6. National Signing Day is on Feb. 5, although most recruits sign during the early period so they can enroll early for spring semesters.

A number of teams are hoping to put together top-10 classes in the 2025 cycle, with numerous SEC teams near the top of the team rankings.

Here are the current team recruiting rankings, per 247Sports’ Composite rankings:
