Grimsley | 2028 StateNC
is a force on the interior defensive line and one of the most disruptive linemen in the state. The 6’3″, 260-pound standout recently earned an offer from NC State, and it’s easy to see why. Vann possesses tremendous strength, consistently commands double teams, and is nearly impossible to block one-on-one. His combination of power, leverage, and relentless motor makes him a game-changing presence in the trenches and a player offense must account for on every snap.
Vann continues to gain momentum both as a player and as a recruit. In talking to some coaches a few weeks ago, there was a feeling that Vann was underrated. He can play inside or outside, and he’s started to get some attention from Power Four schools. I like his quickness and that he can win in a variety of ways.
For such a talented player, we really haven’t written much about Vann. His rare blend of size, speed, and strength are scary, and he’s just starting to hit his stride as a defensive tackle. He’s extremely quick off the line and made plenty of plays in the backfield as a sophomore. As he develops a pass-rushing arsenal, he’s going to be one of the best interior defenders in the state.
Vann had a massive impact despite rotating within Grimsley’s deep defensive line, with four sacks and nine tackles for loss last season. He’s not the biggest interior lineman, but he’s strong and relentless, often fighting through double teams to make plays. There’s some serious upside here, as Vann has the frame to add more weight and should see an increased role in 2026.
