    There’s a strong chance Indiana football will land its best high school recruiting class ever with the class of 2027.

    The Hoosiers are riding an unprecedented wave of momentum, and they are leading contenders for several elite prospects in the current junior class.

    Below is a look at the players who have announced their intent to take official visits to Bloomington this spring and summer.  We’ll pin this post to the recruiting drop-down menu, and make changes as updates come in.

    The periods when on campus visits are allowed are March 2 through May 23, and May 28 through June 21.  So far Indiana’s official visits seem to be centered on six primary weekends.

    Most of Indiana’s 2027 class is likely to be in place by the end of June.  For current class of 2027 commits, GO HERE.
