A physical, sure-tackling linebacker with impressive quickness and instincts in the run game, Schnell moved to Georgia and will play for the talented Rabun-Gap Eagles this fall. He already brings Power Four sizer at 6-foot-3 215-pounds and has the talent as well. His recruitment took off this off-season and he’s now one of the top overall defenders in the 2028 class according to Prep Redzone. The big-time linebacker is now ranked as the No. 2 LB prospect and the No. 19 overall prospect in the state. Look for him to have a massive sophomore season in 2025.
