Mountain West Football 2024 Team Recruiting Rankings. Boise State

It’s another week of the Mountain West Recruiting Roundup.

The class of 2024 is signed, sealed, and delivered, but our coverage of the class is just getting started. New offers for the class of 2025 and beyond are still being handed out, but February will mostly focus on breaking down the 2024 class.

Next week will look at the Transfer Rankings along with our Transfer/JUCO Teams. On the 19th, we will discuss which teams recruited the best position units, and the following week will unveil our sleeper recruit team. However, today’s edition features the 2024 Team Recruiting Rankings. Read further below for details about the rankings.

This week’s cover photo goes to the Broncos for being the #1 team in the rankings.

Recruiting Calendar:

Starting today, and for the next month, we are in a dead period. This is by far the more restrictive phase, and all face-to-face contact with recruits is prohibited.

Next College Student Athlete says:

The most restrictive of all the recruiting periods is the NCAA Dead Period. During the dead period, coaches may not have any in-person contact with recruits and/or their parents. In other words, coaches are not allowed to talk to recruits at their college campus, the athlete’s school, an athletic camp or even the grocery store.

While the term “dead period” makes it seem like all recruiting stops during this time, that’s actually not the case. Athletes and coaches are still allowed to communicate via phone, email, social media and other digital communication channels. While NCAA Division 1 programs are prohibited from conducting any in-person recruiting, D1 college coaches can still contact student-athletes via digital forms of communication during the dead period.

Air Force Commitment Tracker:

Since the Air Force Academy regularly has by far the most commits among Mountain West recruiting classes, it’s fun to track them over the course of the year.

Number of Falcon verbal commits: 102
