Duke football recruiting, transfer class rankings heading into NSD
· Yahoo Sports
Coming off the 2025 ACC championship, Duke football looks to keep its momentum growing in 2026.
Manny Diaz and Co. signed 14 new Blue Devils as part of Duke's 2026 class, marking Diaz's second full recruiting class since arriving in Durham in December 2023. Out of the 14, 11 enrolled early at Duke in January.
In addition, Diaz and the Blue Devils are set to bring in 17 new additions via the transfer portal.
While the Blue Devils are unexpected to add anyone to their 2026 signing day class on Wednesday, the February signing period is open from Feb. 4-6.
Here's a look at where Duke's 2026 high school and portal classes rank heading into National Signing Day:
