Five-stars: None
Four-stars: OL Drake Jackson, OL Landon Young
Breakdown: The Wildcats' 16-man class is the nation's second biggest behind Miami's 24-player group. Coach Mark Stoops' class is about more than numbers, though, with offensive linemen Landon Young and Drake Jackson leading the way. Both are new arrivals in the Rivals250 with Landon Young making the biggest leap by moving up from three stars to four. The offensive line duo headlines a group which does not include a prospect ranked below the three-star mark.
