<p>The Class of 2025 rankings received an update this week, bringing some new names to our radar along with some changes in positional rankings. To introduce (or re-introduce) you to some of these prospects, we are bringing out the prospect profiles. In our “Prospect Profiles” series, we feature the top prospects at each position by highlighting their reported testing numbers, PRs in other sports, offers, stats, Twitter/Hudl profiles, and some strengths we see from their tape.</p>

<p>Next group we'll take a look at are the versatile players who can play one spot on one play and in another the next, the ATHs. The players labeled ATH are athletes with the potential to play on either side of the ball and even play several different positions on either offense or defense. The top 3 ATHs in the 2025 class have already announced commitments, with Millard North teammates <em>[player_tooltip player_id='301713' first='Pierce' last='Mooberry']</em> and <em>Caden VerMass</em> both pledging to Nebraska and Omaha Central's <em>[player_tooltip player_id='318989' first='Alijah' last='Wayne']</em> announcing his commitment to South Dakota State.</p>
