Team Roses

2 of 3
Howard v Maryland

According to Rivals' Hunter Shelton, this year's star-studded group of 2026 and 2027 recruits will be split into two teams—Team Roses and Team Pearls.

Team Roses will be led by a collection of 2027 quarterbacks, including Evangel Christian Academy (LA) signal-caller Peyton Houston, who is already committed to LSU.

According to The Athletic's Manny Navarro, the game will feature 21 high school juniors who are already committed. The game will also feature 72 underclassmen from the 2027 cycle, which is up from the 33 2026 recruits who played in last year's exhibition.

The increase in underclassmen isn't altogether surprising. The rise of NIL has led to stronger recruitment and earlier commitments. Many recruits will look to avoid the injury risk of an exhibition game when money is at stake and their college destinations are already set.

The list of notable class of '26 recruits on Team Roses includes 4-star wide receiver Boobie Feaster (committed to USC), 5-star tight end Kendre' Harrison (Oregon), 5-star offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho (Oregon), 5-star defensive lineman Richard Anderson (LSU), 5-star safety Jireh Edwards (Alabama), and 5-star defensive lineman Lamar Brown (LSU).

Brown is the top-ranked overall prospect in On3's 2026 rankings.

Team Pearls

Maryland v Ohio State

The offense of Team Pearls will feature a pair of intriguing quarterback prospects. Ryder Lyons of Folson (CA) is the No. 5 QB in the 2026 cycle and has already signed with BYU. Valdosta Lowndes (GA) signal-caller Jayce Johnson is the No. 5 QB in the 2027 cycle and has already committed to Texas A&M.

The Pearls' offense will also feature 4-star running back Damarius Yates (signed with Mississippi), 4-star athlete Salesi Moa (Utah), 4-star tight end Brock Harris (BYU), and 3-star interior lineman Jordan Harrison (SFU).

The Pearls' defense will be headlined by the likes of 4-star defensive lineman Khary Wilder (Ohio State), 5-star edge LaDamion Guyton (Texas Tech), 5-star edge Richard Wesley (Texas), 4-star linebacker Cincere Johnson (Ohio State), 4-star linebacker Omarii Sanders (Vanderbilt), and 5-star safety Joey O'Brien (Notre Dame).

According to Navarro, Team Pearls will also feature the game's two only uncommitted seniors—4-star receiver Tyren Hornes and 4-star defensive lineman Dylan Berymon.

All-star games like the All-America Game and the Navy All-American Bowl used to serve as a platform for top recruits to make commitment announcements. However, with players signing earlier than ever before, fans shouldn't expect many surprises this weekend.
