2026 Class Rankings Released, Blows Past 250

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The timing of my return, on an interim basis, to the Kansas lead scout role coincided closely with the need to prepare quarterly rankings updates. First up is the class of 2026. Changes include approximately two dozen new additions that have pushed the total number of prospects included to more than 250. A few players were removed due to reasons that include confirmations that a few players have stopped playing high school basketball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A variety of changes, some dramatic, will certainly be noticeable. A large amount of work goes into presenting rankings that reflect Prep Girls Hoops' (PGH) <a href="https://prepgirlshoops.com/how-we-rank/">primary guideline</a> of ranking athletes on their potential to play college basketball, not on their current ability. All PGH scouts from Kansas and other states made impactful contributions to the rankings. We also draw from a wide range of other information sources. We catch games in person and online; study highlights; read reports; and communicate with a wide range of people to distill information down to compile the extensive lists. Reports from outside scouting and media sources, coaches at a variety of levels, parents, fans and players are among the sources mined for footage and information. News, photos, video, reports and comments continue to be immensely helpful in informing and shaping the rankings. One thing to remember, players out due to injury or other personal reasons are not removed.
