Maury’s beat of a defensive end and arguably the number 1 recruit out of VA for 2025 Ari Watford Ari Watford Ari Watford 6'5" | 234 lbs | DL Maury | 2025 State VA just listed his top 6 schools. Among them are Ohio State, Penn State, Clemson, Syracuse, Virginia Tech and South Carolina, pretty impressive list. Many experts have projected Clemson and Penn State as the favorites to land him, but I would not be so sure. College recruiting is changing on the fly and every day there seems to be a new trend. Watford is one of best prospects in the country for 2025 he has no need to rush his decision.
