New 2025 Peach-State Prospects to Know

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Who are some new 2025 prospects on the rise in Georgia?</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Prep Redzone has the details...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1186933' first='Brant' last='Freeman'] - LB - Creekview</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An impressive 2025 linebacker on the rise in Cherokee County, Freeman is a promising defender who can do a little bit of everything. He has above-average size and speed, but his instincts and ability to both chase down the ball carrier and attack the quarterback are why he's an easy D1-caliber prospect. A lengthy defender at almost 6-foot-2, Freeman brings an impressive combination of instincts and natural playmaking ability. He gets downhill in a hurry and has the ability to get into the backfield and disrupt a play before it starts. He was very productive last season as a junior as he made 83 tackles, six TFLs, two sacks, one forced fumble, and another fumble recovery. He's smart, understands his role, and brings maximum effort each play. He plays hard and it showed up the stat sheet. He's also a sure, fundamental tackler who consistently gets the ball carrier to the ground. He's a defender who could easily play somewhere at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1186928' first='Andrew' last='Stargel'] - OL - Roswell</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A big, mean offensive tackle out of Roswell, this up-and-coming prospect is quickly becoming one of the hottest OL prospects in Georgia for the 2025 class. A versatile lineman with plenty of size and versatility at 6-foot-4 300-pounds, Stargel is coming off a big junior season where he consistently put defenders on the ground. Whether he was run blocking or protecting the quarterback, Stargel did his job all season long and made things tough for every defender he went up against. He's physical and does a good job of finishing his block until the whistle. The Hornets had an excellent offensive line last year and Stargel was a big reason why. Not only can he move inside and play guard if he needs too, but he can also play both right and left tackle if that's where he's needed. There's a lot to like about his style of play and potential at the next level, and his recruitment could be close to taking off. He earned an offer from Kentucky recently, and more could come his way this off-season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1186930' first='Jaiden' last='Braker'] - South Gwinnett</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>An impressive Gwinnett County linebacker with easy Power Five size and potential at 6-foot-5 210-pounds, this South Gwinnett defender is in the middle of seeing his recruitment pick up after making a respectable 48 tackles last season as a junior to go along with four TFLs in just nine games. He has a promising frame with length and the potential to add more weight and muscle over the next few years. A really good athlete who is still developing as a football player, it's clear Brakers' best football is still way ahead of him. He plays with a lot of energy and shows good pursuit when chasing down the running back. He's due for a solid increase in the next Prep Redzone update after that strong 2023 season. He currently holds offers from Indiana, Georgia Southern among others, with more likely on the way. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
