Don't look now, but Georgia Tech currently boasts the third-ranked recruiting class in the ACC.

Will they stay there? That is up for debate. What isn't up for debate right now is that Yellow Jackets head coach Brent Key has built a ton of momentum right now and a winning season will only help the program.

The big reason for the recent rise from Georgia Tech is due to two commitments. Four-star cornerback Troy Stevenson and three-star defensive back Christian Pritchett joined the Yellow Jackets 2024 class this week, putting them at 23 commitments. Georgia Tech is unlikely to add much more to this class, so they are likely to drop a few spots, but this has been a great start for Key and his staff.

The king of the conference in recruiting is still Clemson, which has been the case all summer. While the Tigers are still at the top of the ACC recruiting rankings on 247Sports, Florida State has closed the gap.

The Seminoles trial Clemson 235-228 in recruiting points on 247Sports and that number has been shrinking over the past couple of weeks.

With GT taking the third spot, for now, Miami has jumped up to 4th and they trail the Yellow Jackets by a razor-thin margin. Behind the Hurricanes are North Carolina, Duke, and Pitt. North Carolina had held a top-three spot for much of the past month, but the Tar Heels don't have a lot of momentum right now. Duke has held steady in the middle of the rankings.

Virginia Tech, Wake Forest, and Syracuse make up the rest of the top ten in the ACC. Louisville, NC State, Virginia, and Boston College are the four schools outside of the top ten.
