Everyone’s been talking about the class of 2008 lately (and with good reason), but on their shirt tails is the class of 2009 – and many recruiters have already started thinking about these talented junior players. I don’t want to get too deeply into it just yet, but Rivals.com recently updated their 2009 recruiting Top 100 list, so I wanted to post here the current top 5, and the schools they are considering:
1. Matt Barkley, Quarterback, committed to USC (we’ll see if that changes though!)
2. Jamarkus McFarland, Defensive Tackle
- Florida
- Nebraska
- Notre Dame
- Oklahoma
- Oklahoma State
- Texas
- Texas A&M
3. Cierre Wood, Running Back
- California
- Florida
- Ole Miss
- Nebraska
- North Carolina
- Notre Dame
- San Diego State
- USC
- Wake Forest
4. Russell Shepard, Athlete
- Alabama
- Arkansas
- Florida
- LSU
- Notre Dame
- Ohio State
- Texas
- Texas A & M
- USC
5. Jacobbi McDaniel, Defensive Tackle
- Alabama
- Auburn
- Clemson
- Florida
- Florida State
- Georgia
- Ole Miss
- Tennessee
Yeah, I know that 2009 recruiting is a bit away…let’s get 2008 out of the way first, right? But it is fun to see where these kids are already considering. No surprise that Florida and Notre Dame make almost every list!
