Here are some other tidbits we gleaned from the list:
- The Top 100 includes 14 DEs, 13 DTs, 11 CBs, 11 RBs, 10 WRs, 10 QBs, 8 LBs, 7 OTs, 6 Gs, 5 S and 5 ATH.
- Among college football programs, Alabama leads with 11 commitments from the 247Sports Top 100, followed by USC (7), Ohio State (6), Clemson (6), Florida State (6), LSU (5) and Tennessee (5).
- There are 19 undecided players from the 247Sports Top 100.
