With Florida high school football spring practices beginning on April 28, it's time for the USA Today Florida Network to release its Class of 2026 pre-spring Top 100.
The Top 100 is the annual list of the top rising senior recruits in the state. Today, the countdown begins with No. 100-81.
USA Today Florida Network reporters have seen players in person at games and camps around the state, studied game film, and spoken to dozens of coaches and analysts to get the best information possible on each recruit.
Previous No. 1s include Zephyrhills defensive back D.J. Pickett last season and Chaminade Madonna wide receiver Jeremiah Smith in 2024. Pickett signed with LSU in December, while Smith starred for Ohio State's national championship team as a true freshman this past season.
Perennial recruiting hotbeds Miami-Dade and Broward counties are well represented on the Top 100 after having just three players in the top 30 — and none in the top 15 — last year. Three of the top five and seven of the top 25 are from Miami-Dade or Broward.
IMG Academy is a top talent producer, and this year is no different. The Ascenders have 11 players on the list, more than any other team in the state.
Florida State leads the way with seven commitments on the Top 100. Miami is second with four.
Here is No. 100-81 on the USA Today Florida Network Top 100.
