2024 6’1 195 LB – Noah Shaw Noah Shaw 6'1" | 195 lbs | LB Asheville | 2024 State NC – Asheville School
Noah “Nobo” Shaw absolutely dominated at the linebacker position last year. He posted: 115 tackles, 2 INTs, 3 sacks, and 2 fumble recoveries. You couldn’t ask for a more well-rounded athlete at linebacker, and I guarantee you that Shaw will be a difference maker on any defensive unit at the collegiate level. He’s a high energy player who doesn’t take any snaps off, and he displayed a physicality in his game that should have linebacker scouts begging to sign him. Noah Shaw Noah Shaw 6'1" | 195 lbs | LB Asheville | 2024 State NC currently has offers from Duke, App State, JMU, ODU, and more, however, with another highlight reel season, I believe he will receive a bunch more power five conference offers in 2023. Scouts everywhere must have 3 star recruit Noah Shaw Noah Shaw 6'1" | 195 lbs | LB Asheville | 2024 State NC on their LB watchlists.

2024 6’0 215 LB – Anthony Walker Anthony Walker 6'0" | 215 lbs | LB Hough | 2024 State NC – Hough
Anthony Walker tallied more than 65 tackles, 5 sacks, and multiple fumble recoveries during the 2022 season. The Hough linebacker displayed next level leadership and skill on the field last year, and my prediction is that his defensive dominion continues in 2023. The All-Conference LB is both cerebral and physical which leads to a high rate of finishing tackles in every game. He has been offered from D1 programs such as NCCU, Delaware, Austin Peay, Richmond, JMU, and more. I anticipate another phenomenal season from Anthony Walker this Fall, in fact, so much so that I’d be shocked if does not receive All-Conference accolades yet again in 2023. He’s a very high level prospect with exciting potential at LB.

2024 6’2 185 DB – Malcolm Ziglar Malcolm Ziglar 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB Fuquay Varina | 2024 State NC – Fuquay-Varina
Malcolm Ziglar Malcolm Ziglar 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB Fuquay Varina | 2024 State NC is a super athletic defensive back who specializes in pick six returns. He returned three pick sixes last year alone, and he already has 10 total interceptions during his high school career. Ziglar also thrives on special teams where he handles punt return duties. As a return man his elusiveness is always on full display, and he racks up a ton of yards after contact as a result. Malcolm Ziglar Malcolm Ziglar 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB Fuquay Varina | 2024 State NC impacts the game in so many ways, and he’s absolutely the type of athlete that college coaches dream about recruiting to their team. This month, he finalized his top eight school choices to: Clemson, South Carolina, Notre Dame, Kentucky, UNC, Penn State, App State, and ECU. You cannot discuss elite DBs from ’24 without mentioning Malcolm Ziglar Malcolm Ziglar 6'2" | 200 lbs | DB Fuquay Varina | 2024 State NC .

2024 6’5 205 DL – James Nesta – Hough
James Nesta can do it all. From defensive line to linebacker, he seamlessly drops into the secondary for pass coverage, but he’s also a punishing run stopper. Nesta is truly one of the most efficient tacklers in the state, and there’s a reason that his final three school choices are UNC, Oklahoma, and The U. James Nesta is a power five conference defender in every way, and he even thrives as a pitcher on the baseball field as well. He’s such an elite athlete that I wouldn’t be surprised at all if he played football and then baseball during the offseason like Jameis Winston. Wherever he lands, Nesta will make an immediate impact, and, if I were his coach, I would give him some reps at the tight end position as well. His hands combined with his overall athletic ability would make him a terror on the offensive side of the ball.
