Rutgers Football has one of the best recruiting classes in history this 2025 cycle, as they currently have 27 total verbal commitments and rank as the No. 20 overall recruiting class in the country.

With that being said, Rivals decided to update the rankings this week and it features a couple of different updates for some of the future Scarlet Knights.

2025 DT BRAXTON KYLE SEES MASSIVE BUMP....

This update saw one of the Scarlet Knights early defensive line recruits in Braxton Kyle go from 5.5, Three-Star to a 5.8, Four-Star as well as the lone Scarlet Knight in the Rivals250 rankings as he makes his debut at No. 197 overall in the country.

This shouldn't come as too much of a surprise since Kyle has been dominant this high school football season, finishing with 41 total tackles (26 solo), 18.0 tackles for loss, 6.0 sacks, 6 QB hurries, 1 interception and 2 forced fumbles.

RENICK DORILAS NOW A FOUR-STAR RECRUIT....

This one shouldn't be too much of a surprise as 2025 defensive back Renick Dorilas has been pretty lockdown his entire high school career, but this season he took his game to another level and locked down some of NJ's best with the move to Don Bosco Prep.

Now he did miss a few games to start the season due to the questionable NJ transfer rules, but he didn't miss a beat once he stepped on the field.

FORSTER DROPS A BIT, NOW A HIGH THREE-STAR...

Despite some bumps for Rutgers Football commits, there was also one who fell a bit in the rankings as running back John Forster goes from four-star to high three-star recruit.

While Forster has been solid his senior year with St. Joe's, he wasn't the star player that a lot of people projected him to be as junior RB Nathan Bailey has been the one putting up significant numbers out of the backfield this season, along with QB Lamar Best playing keeper quite a bit. Forster still managed to finish with 476 yards and four touchdowns on 107 carries this year.
