enters the rankings at No. 96 and immediately establishes himself as one of the better offensive line prospects in Pennsylvania’s 2028 class. At 6’3, 300 pounds, he already carries an ideal frame for interior offensive line recruiting. Kovacic remains unoffered, but I would argue he is one of the best unoffered offensive linemen currently in the state. He appears to have added more than 30 pounds since his last Hudl update while maintaining the size and power coaches want to see. In my opinion, his future is at guard, although he has enough versatility to provide value at multiple spots across the line. The ceiling here is unquestionably FBS football if development continues on its current path. His sophomore tape, posted in January, shows tackle experience while also flashing intriguing nose guard and interior defensive line reps later in the film. Betting on the combination of frame, program, and long-term upside is exactly why Kovacic lands comfortably inside the Top 100.

- 6’2.5, 270 pounds. Self reports a 3.6 GPA.
- A new name in our database, yet a prospect without any tape to his name currently. He’ll stay on our watch list for the time being. Big kid in a program that knows how to develop linemen on both sides of the ball. I’d bet Kovacic develops into a name to know at some point down the line. Saw him when diving into the tape of teammate

is a 2028 player, so no film from last year, but I expect he should get some time as a Sophomore this season on Junior Varsity and some spot time on Varsity. He could also get on the field as a special teamer.
