Talented defensive line recruit Daevin Hobbs has committed to the Tennessee Volunteers. The 6-foot-4, 260-pound defensive lineman committed to Tennessee over Georgia, UNC, Alabama, Michigan and Ohio State.
Hobbs, who is a four-star recruit, is the No. 95 prospect in the class of 2023 and the No. 2 recruit in North Carolina. Hobbs is the No. 11 defensive lineman in the country.
The Georgia Bulldogs already have commitments from Jamaal Jarrett and defensive back Chris Peal. Both players are ranked in the top five in North Carolina.
Hobbs has visited Tennessee, Ohio State, Michigan and Georgia. The powerful defensive lineman also plays some wildcat quarterback for his high school.
The four-star plays football and basketball for Jay M. Robinson High School in Concord, North Carolina. Concord is located north of Charlotte. Hobbs was the leading scorer on Jay M. Robinson’s state championship-winning basketball team during the 2021-2022 season.
Hobbs is a powerful pass rusher and could play right away at Tennessee.
Hobbs is a very versatile athlete and plays multiple positions for his high school. He has scholarship offers from elite college football programs including Alabama, Tennessee, Michigan and South Carolina.
Hobb’s committed on his mom’s birthday.
