These guys all play multiple positions, do it extremely well, and most are freaks of nature. So now let’s go over 3 of the most underrated athletes from the class of 2024!
Kyle Robbins Kyle Robbins 6'2" | 190 lbs | ATH Seaholm | 2024 State MI (Seaholm)
Robbins was sensational for the Maples this season, earning an all-north honorable mention + all-league honors. Defensively, he was a pass breakup machine playing great fundamental coverage and playing very smart football. Robbins also got it done on the offensive end, being very elusive in the open field as a SB. Moving forward, Robbins is going to be a sure cornerstone for this Seaholm team as they try and return to the state semifinals for the first time since 2019.
CJ Hibbler CJ Hibbler 5'8" | 160 lbs | ATH Petoskey | 2024 State MI (Petoskey)
Hibbler is a great fast-twitch athlete who isn’t getting the attention he deserves, I would argue because he’s so up north. Standing at 5’8″ 155lbs, Hibbler is speedy and elusive, doing lots of his work after the catch. He’s able to catch short and deep routes, as well as line up in the backfield and do some major damage. Hibbler also starts on defense where he’s a very capable DB.
Eric Christoff Eric Christoff 5'7" | 145 lbs | ATH Avondale | 2024 State MI (Avondale)
Christoff’s stats don’t blow anyone out of the water, but his fundamentals and athleticism are incredible. Christoff has one of the best releases I’ve seen, and his hands are as good as any. Although Eric is underrated, he has been getting some well deserved recognition for performing wonderfully at the Rising Stars camp. Alongside a very competitive C/O 2024 QB leading Avondale in 2022, Christoff could be set for an amazing season.
