1. LB Andrew Simpson – Boise State

Simpson was a productive defensive playmaker during his three seasons with the Broncos. Totaling 141 tackles, 32 tackles for loss, 12.5 sacks, three interceptions and five forced fumbles, he is a difference maker at the linebacker position. North Carolina, USC and Miami have been under consideration. Everything has gone silent regarding his decision, but the Tar Heels remain the favorite.

2. OL Andre Roye Jr. – Maryland

A 6-fooot-6, 294-pound redshirt sophomore, Roye started seven games at left tackle during the 2024 season. This was after he redshirted in 2022 and then saw the field for six games during the 2023 season. While he doesn’t possess an abundance of experience, he showed enough during his seven games last season to gain the attention of several programs across the country. While his process has been quiet, some of the schools that are involved include Colorado, Baylor, Florida State, Rutgers and Louisville. He is currently taking an official visit to Colorado. 

3. WR Trejan Bridges – Central Arkansas

Along with Theo Wease and Jason Haselwood, Bridges was part of a five-star wide receiver group that signed with Oklahoma in 2019. However, in two seasons he only totaled nine receptions for 101 yards and two touchdowns before facing serious legal charges during the spring of 2021. This led him to be dismissed from the Sooners, then a JUCO season and finally a move to Central Arkansas. During his one season in the FCS he totaled 53 receptions for 748 yards and six touchdowns. He has taken official visits to Syracuse and Maryland.

4. OL Brandon Sneh – Kansas State

Sneh, 6-foot-7 and 320-pounds, began his collegiate career at DII Elizabeth City State before transferring to Wagner in 2024. After one season in the FCS, he transferred to Kansas State in January but then re-entered the portal during the spring. Since re-entering, he has picked up offers from Buffalo, Southern Miss, UAB, Missouri State, North Texas, Akron, Washington State and most recently New Mexico State. He has taken visits to Washington State and UAB. He has two years of eligibility remaining. 

5. TE Boden Groen – Rice

Groen, 6-foot-4 and 240-pounds, was a JUCO signee by Rice in 2022. In three seasons with the Owls he totaled 60 receptions for 556 yards and three touchdowns, with his best production coming in 2023 when he finished with 39 receptions for 383 yards and three touchdowns. His 2024 season was cut down to only four games due to an injury. He has already taken visits to Wisconsin and most recently Kansas.
