Big Board Recruiting from 2020-26

Two weeks ago, we saw MatScouts release the final Big Board rankings for the high school Class of 2025. We've done plenty of studies over the years to figure out which programs recruit the best and here's another one to add to the mix. 

We'll look at MatScouts Big Board rankings for each of the last six years to determine how many of a specific category each school has signed. With national titles and All-American honors so heavily dependent on signing high school superstars - there are six different levels for the top 100. Top 5 recruits, Top 10 recruits, Top 25 recruits, Top 50 recruits, Top 75 recruits, and Top 100. After that we've used the top 150 and top 200 benchmarks. 

For purposes of this study, if a wrestler was ranked #24 in his graduating class, he counts for the top 25 category and all others behind it. 

We have only listed DI programs who have signed top 200 recruits within this period 2020-25. These years were used because prior to 2020 the MatScouts Big Board only went up to the top 100.
