College football's top uncommitted recruits in 2025
It's that time of year when Talkin' Season begins, the preseason magazines hit the shelves, and the top college football recruits are taking in their official visits and nearing commitment decisions.
A little over half of the most highly-ranked 2025 recruits have made their decisions known, including 15 five-star players on the national prospect big board.
So there's still plenty of action to come in the 2025 cycle as blue-chip prospects have big decisions to make before what should be a flurry of pledges made over the next few months.
Atop that big board is consensus No. 1 overall prospect and top-ranked quarterback Bryce Underwood, who remains committed to LSU.
No. 2 quarterback Julian Lewis is still sticking with USC but taking in other visits, while elsewhere in the top-five among signal callers, Tavien St. Clair is pledged to Ohio State, George MacIntyre to Tennessee, and Matt Zollers is committed to Missouri.
Let's take a turn around the country, and see where the major recruiting services project some of the biggest uncommitted players could end up in 2025.
