We’ve got the details…
Chukwunedu Okeke Chukwunedu Okeke 6'4" | 260 lbs | DL Pebblebrook | 2024 State GA – Pebblebrook
A big, powerful lineman who can swat away opposing offensive linemen with ease, Okeke has a big frame at 6-foot-4 275-pounds who can be a real force from the inside. A current Western Kentucky commitment, the Pebblebrook defender can swallow up the ball-carrier with ease. He’s active and can blow up any particular play, and he’s now ranked as the No. 115 prospect in Georgia for the 2024 class.He attacks, and when he makes a tackle, he’s going to leave a bruise. He played against, and won battles, against quality offensive linemen all season long. He’s quick, strong, and flashes big-time playmaking ability. The Hilltoppers are getting a guy who has the potential to come in and play early. So far this season, Okeke has made 34 tackles, 8 TFLs, and five sacks.
Favour Edwin Favour Edwin 6'8" | 290 lbs | OL Eagles LAnding | 2024 State GA – Eagles Landing Christian
A massive offensive tackle at 6-foot-8 290-pounds, Edwin is still learning the game of football, but thanks to his size, length, and natural potential, he’ made a big debut in the latest 2024 update, now coming in at No. 69 overall in the peach-state. He’s still raw and has a lot of developing to do, but it’s easy to see the ceiling that he brings to the table. He can devour opposing defensive linemen and bury them into the ground. He does a great job of holding his block and driving defenders backwards and completely out of the play. He’s a big right tackle who can open up running lanes, and he already holds offers from programs like Auburn, Alabama, Florida, among others. As good as he already is, Edwin’s potential is through the roof if he continues to develop and work on his craft.
Uche Iloh Uche Iloh 6'7" | 230 lbs | DL McIntosh | 2024 State GA – McIntosh
One of the fastest-rising defenders in the Atlanta area, the Peachtree City native out of McIntosh High School is a big two-sport standout who has a very disruptive season this fall as a senior. Now ranked as the No. 101 prospect in Georgia, the big junior EDGE defender has a promising frame at 6-foot-7 235-pounds that should allow him to continue putting on good weight and muscle over time. He’s a really good athlete for his size and it allowed him to light up the stat sheet defensively last year as a junior, making 90 tackles along with an eye-opening 16 TFLs. As a senior so far this fall, the productive lineman has made 66 tackles, 19 TFLs, and 11 sacks. He currently holds offers from Minnesota, Georgia Southern, Georgia Tech, Indiana, and Virginia. He’s one of the top defenders south of Atlanta and absolutely earned his new ranking.
