College hoops recruiting: Coaches weigh in on NCAA Tournament size, intel on top prospects and more
Posted Jul 17, 2025
Coaches and NBA scouts I spoke to agree across the board: When compared to the five-star depth from 2024, 2025 and what's percolating in 2027, the 2026 class is glaringly weak. We'll get some college stars from it, of course, but in terms of projected NBA star-level potential, 2026 is not considered in the upper half of all classes in the past 15 years.
