**The Recruiting Desk Weekly: August 24 – August 30, 2026**

This week saw 2 coaching changes detected and confirmed, alongside 35 roster signals reported across various divisions, all 35 of which had an unknown division source. There were 41 transfer-portal-related news items. Notable items observed included Trent Dilfer's first win in his second stint as Lipscomb Academy head coach, Kentucky naming Alex Brown as assistant general manager, and reporting on Kentucky players adjusting from FCS to SEC.

For Class of 2027 and 2028 families, commitment activity remained low with 11 commitment news items. Offer news items totaled 4, indicating a very limited number of new offers extended this week. Visit news items, however, were higher at 20, suggesting evaluations are ongoing for future classes. The number of roster signals implies continued movement within programs.

Next week, we'll watch for any shifts in offer or commitment trends.
