Michael Vick and Norfolk State Drop 2026 Recruiting Class — Which Rising Stars Are Set to Shake Up College Football?

After a tough 1-11 season, Michael Vick and Norfolk State decided it’s time for a reboot bigger than your neighborhood spring cleaning. With 18 high school recruits and a whopping 21 transfers, this 2026 class feels less like a lineup and more like a full-blown roster renaissance. Curious how many players hail from Vick’s home turf in Virginia? Plenty — 13 to be exact, including five from Oscar Smith High School alone. And speaking of reshaping the team’s identity, Vick’s eye for bolstering the offensive line and wide receiver corps signals a strategic push for consistency on offense. But here’s the twist — four new quarterbacks have arrived, stirring memories of last season’s electric QB standoff that had fans on edge. Will this influx of talent turn Norfolk State’s fortunes around or just add more fuel to the fire? Time will tell. Meanwhile, feast your eyes on the full list of additions that might just raise some eyebrows. LEARN MORE.

After a 1-11 season, Michael Vick and Norfolk State have unveiled their 2026 recruiting class. The class features 18 high school recruits and 21 transfers, making it a significant roster overhaul for Vick as he approaches his second season.

A feature of Norfolk State’s recruiting class of note is the number of players from Virginia. There are 13 Virginia natives joining the roster, with five players coming from Oscar Smith High School. Vick was also intentional in building upon the offensive line as well as the wide receiver room for the Spartans for a more consistent offensive attack. He also managed to bring in five FBS transfers, including Paul Billips II from North Carolina and Josiah Davis from the University of Florida.

Also, most interestingly, Vick has recruited four new quarterbacks: two high school quarterbacks and two transfer quarterbacks. This is notable as Vick faced an impromptu QB battle between longtime Spartan quarterback Otto Khuns and new transfer quarterback from the University of South Florida Israel Carter, which became a predominant storyline early in the season.

The full list of Norfolk State’s 2026 recruits is below.
