UCF Football has just made a MAJOR splash on the recruiting trail! In today's episode, we break down the massive commitment of four-star defensive end Alhassan Idrisu to the UCF Knights. Ranked in the top 200 nationally, this elite edge rusher brings size, speed, and raw power to a defense that desperately needed a pass rush injection.

Idrisu, out of Oakdale, Connecticut, had offers from Maryland, Florida State, California, and Colorado State—but chose UCF, showing the recruiting reach Scott Frost and Alex Grinch are starting to establish. Standing nearly 6'6" and weighing 240 lbs with an 85-inch wingspan, this beast off the edge has NFL measurables and is expected to be an immediate game-changer in the Big 12.

We dive into UCF’s recruiting class of 2026, now sitting at 13 commits and ranked 66th per 247Sports. This includes dual-threat QB Kane Archer, Dante Carr, RB Kaj Baker, and several key additions across both offense and defense.

Scott Frost knows it’s not just about star rankings—it’s about filling key needs and developing elite talent. As UCF targets 23-25 total recruits, the coaching staff is focusing heavily on Florida and Southeastern talent pipelines.

🎯 Don’t miss why this class is the foundation of the future and how UCF plans to rise in the recruiting rankings!
