David Sanders Jr - Providence Day - I just observed the dominant 2025 Offensive and Defensive Lineman win a state championship over Charlotte Christian 55-13 just a couple of short weeks ago on their home field. The agility a young man of his size moves with is amazing; it's easy to see why just about every school in the country wants this physical specimen. Most people feel his future is on offense, but he showed an ability to shed blocks and make plays on defense at the line of scrimmage. He also flashed some pass-rushing ability as well. [player_tooltip player_id='44968' first='Rico' last='Walker'] - Hickory - Rico has always been a great athlete - he started out making his accolades on the offensive side of the football, but has transitioned to become a terror playing the famed EDGE position that is so hot right now in football. He can play offense though also, as he can highpoint the football at 6'4 and 225 pounds and played some TE and WR this past season for Hickory. It will be fun to see where he ultimately lands for the Tar Heels on the next level.   [player_tooltip player_id='354997' first='Jerel' last='Bolder'] - Forest Hills - After a strong summer, Bolder ended up his season being named an All-Conference player, and on top of that he was named the Special Teams Player of the Year for his conference, a nice honor to add to his rising stock. He is dangerous in space with the ball in his hands, and with a returning senior QB coming back with him next season and some other offensive weapons, he should be poised for an even bigger season to step into an even greater spotlight.   [player_tooltip player_id='346876' first='Daevin' last='Hobbs'] - JM Robinson - After a strong senior campaign came to an end in the 2nd round of the State Playoffs, Hobbs made a big decision and committed to the University of Tennessee. What are the Vols getting? Well, he's a big, strong, and athletic player on either side of the football. On defense, he was stronger than a lot of his opposing offensive linemen which was just physically impressive at times. However, playing H-Back and Tight End he may have been even more impressive to me. Either way, the Vols have a very good player in their 2023 class now.   [player_tooltip player_id='144930' first='Sullivan' last='Absher'] - South Point - The huge Norte Dame commit has had a great season, and the only one out of this list that is still playing as his South Point Red Raiders are in the state semifinals this Friday Night. The Fighting Irish have done a great job investing in their offensive line, and Absher is another one of those investments that will pay off as he has a bright future punishing guys on the next level ahead of him.
