Biggest Winners, Losers of SEC Football 2026 Summer Recruiting


Losers of SEC Football Recruiting

Auburn Tigers
Auburn’s seven commits rank No. 86 nationally, last in the SEC, trailing even FCS Idaho Vandals. Losses of four-star prospects like Shadarius Toodle to Georgia and Cederian Morgan to Alabama leave one in-state commit, four-star edge Hezekiah Harris. Hugh Freeze’s 11 June golf rounds have sparked fan criticism on X, with a $1.5 million budget hampering efforts against SEC giants.

Missouri Tigers
Missouri’s seven commits rank No. 84, a sharp decline from their 2025 top-20 class. With one four-star, quarterback Anthony Kennedy Jr., Eli Drinkwitz struggles to replace stars like Luther Burden. A $1.8 million budget limits their reach against Alabama and Georgia, and just one commit since March signals a recruiting stall.

South Carolina Gamecocks
South Carolina’s nine commits rank No. 58, down from their 2025 top-25 class. Shane Beamer’s $1.9 million budget hasn’t landed a five-star, with top targets like four-star offensive tackle Josiah Thompson staying in-state with rivals. Failure to capitalize on a talent-rich region and a 9-3 2024 season leaves the Gamecocks trailing SEC peers.

Hugh Freeze sure does love golf.
