Bleacher Report released an article highlighting the 30 best defensive recruits in the 2017 class. Two #BluePrint17 pledges made the list:
30. LB Jordan Anthony:
“You see Anthony do all the things [IMG head coach Kevin] Wright talked about on film, from the coverage to coming up and filling against the run,” Steve Wiltfong wrote. “The trait that stands out the most is the physicality and quickness Anthony plays with. He’s a sideline-to-sideline player that lined up all over at IMG and will walk in the door in Ann Arbor college-ready.”
6. DT Aubrey Solomon
“Solomon is the most [athletic] defensive tackle in the country,” Scout.com’s Chad Simmons wrote. “He really knows how to use his quickness and suddenness to fire off the ball and get into the opposing backfield. He is not just an interior defensive lineman who eats up space, who frees up others to make plays—he makes a lot of plays. He gets into the backfield often, and he not only can push the pocket back, but he can make get tackles for loss and sack the quarterback.”
