CGA X Inside Gymnastics Men’s NCAA Class Of 2026 Recruiting Roundup Big Picture

NCAA MEN’S GYMNASTICS: Recruiting Roundup!

Now that you’ve met many of the freshmen slated to compete during the 2025-26 Men’s NCAA Gymnastics season (see that series here on InsideGym.com), we’re excited to launch a look at the Class of 2026 – NLI Signings for each program!

In this new Inside Gymnastics series in partnership with the Men’s College Gymnastics Association (CGA), we asked each head coach about who’s graduating, who’s coming up, what they look for in their recruits, where each Class of 2026 NLI signee could potentially contribute to the lineup, and what makes their program unique. You’ll see what they had to say right here on InsideGym.com!

We’ll also add updates here and across our social media platforms as the season progresses, should anything change. Plus! Stay tuned right here for Men’s NCAA Coverage throughout the season, and be on the lookout for our upgraded Routine Of The Week segment and more @InsideGym once the season gets rolling.

The Class of 2026 Signees are an impressive and exciting group! Based on the information provided from the schools (several were still working on finalizing their classes while two schools had yet to respond as of this update), we see the schools currently ranked in the top 6 continue to recruit top talent, and put themselves in the running for the National Championship going forward. With scoring potential, experience, and resumes all a factor, Oklahoma, Stanford, Michigan, Ohio State and Nebraska should all remain in great position for the future. Several programs, including Stanford, Michigan and Ohio State will have massive scores to fill with Stanford’s Asher Hong and Michigan’s Frederick Richard set to graduate. Not only do these two bring in huge scores, their status as 2024 Olympic medalists bring an extra excitement and notoriety to their programs; whereas Ohio State is graduating six seniors.

Individually, we expect future Sooner Dante Reive to be right at the top of the rankings. We’d also expect Stanford’s Maksim Kan, Nartey Brady, and Kiefer Hong to put Stanford in great position to win yet another National Championship.

Inside Gymnastics will provide any additional information as it’s received.
