Murphy's rise began after his performance at the Warren Academy Top Prospects showcase. Ashton put together a great showing at the showcase displaying his athleticism, explosiveness, and versatility on both lines, earning him his first offer from Northern Iowa. As it seems to go, after this first offer several soon followed. Since then Ashton has received offers from Colorado, Nebraska, Wyoming, Air Force, North Dakota State, Northern Illinois, and Navy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1615123126399942656?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1615123126399942656?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1619883795213320192?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1619883795213320192?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1620608803858419712?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1620608803858419712?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1622788154989092868?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1622788154989092868?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1623535524337307650?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1623535524337307650?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1629298446589984768?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1629298446589984768?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1624188616040673281?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1624188616040673281?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1631326318733189126?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/AshtonMurphy24/status/1631326318733189126?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='250739' first='Tanner' last='Hollinger'] | 2024 | TE | Cross County | 6'5" 220 lbs</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11708407/Tanner-Hollinger" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Hudl</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/HollingerTanner" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Twitter</a></em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tall, athletic tight ends have been really popular on the recruiting circuit so far.
