ACC Recruiting Rankings: Did Georgia Tech Move Up After the Final 247 Sports Player Rankings Update?

Georgia Tech finished with the No. 35 class in the country

The 2024 recruiting class has been wrapped up for some time now, but 247Sports released its final player rankings update and there was some movement around the ACC. The player rankings were updated after the players competed in High School All-Star games.

So after the latest player rankings, did any of the teams move up or down in the ACC recruiting rankings?

At the very top, there was no change in who brought in the No. 1 class. Mario Cristobal and Miami signed the No. 1 class in the ACC and the No. 3 class in the country. The Hurricanes signed six players ranked in the top 100 and on paper, might have the best roster in the ACC. The question now will be if Cristobal can coach the team to success. 

Florida State held the No. 2 class after the early signing period, but they have been bumped down to three in favor of Clemson. The Tigers and Seminoles are both a ways behind Miami but have a clear separation from the rest of the conference. 

North Carolina and NC State make up the top five in the conference, but they are much closer to the rest of the ACC than they are to Miami, Clemson, and Florida State. Stanford, Georgia Tech, Syracuse, Pittsburgh, and Virginia Tech round out the top ten. The only spot that is different from the early signing period is Syracuse jumping Pitt for the No. 8 class. 

Georgia Tech had a strong finish with its 2024 signing class. Brent Key and his staff did well to close the class out by adding four-star running back Anthony Carrie and flipping defensive end Amontrae Bradford from Colorado. Key did a nice job of finishing the class off for Georgia Tech as he continues to build out his roster and program,

New Head coach Fran Brown and Syracuse were outside of the top ten when he was hired, but he did well to close strong and jump a couple of ACC schools. 

Wake Forest, Cal, Louisville, Duke, Virginia, Boston College, and SMU round out the rest of the rankings. Cal moved from 14 to 12 and Boston College went from 17 to 16.
