CLASS OF 2026
UNDECIDED
Heading into this next rankings cycle in May, we’re sitting with 23 five-stars but a few of them have to prove themselves through the summer to keep that ranking. We’re trying to mirror the first round of the NFL Draft so we’ll hopefully get to 32 – or as close as feasible considering the class.

And the prediction is Lamar Brown will be one of them.

The Baton Rouge (La.) University Lab four-star, two-way standout is an elite offensive lineman and at least two interior guys – Tyler Booker and Gray Zabel – went in the first round Thursday and a third could be counted if Ohio State’s Donovan Jackson bounces inside.

Brown has had a great offseason and he could back it up even more at the Rivals Five-Star this summer. With his position versatility and talent, it would be a surprise if he doesn’t end up as a five-star prospect by the end of the 2026 cycle.
