The No. 1 offensive tackle in the class of 2025 is projected to commit to an SEC school next week. David Sanders Jr. is now predicted to head to Tennessee for his collegiate career.

Sanders Jr. narrowed down his choices to the Vols, Nebraska, Ohio State, and Georgia. The 6-foot-6, 290-pound lineman visited Lincoln twice in the last three months.

He took his official visit over Mother’s Day Weekend before returning on July 26 when quarterback Dylan Raiola asked fans to come out and welcome the 2025 recruit to campus.

Sanders Jr. is the reigning Gatorade State Player of the Year in North Carolina after helping Providence Day to another state championship. The Charlotte, North Carolina native is set to announce his commitment on August 17.

Husker football player switches position

A Husker football player has switched positions during the offseason.

A Husker football player has switched positions during the offseason. Ru’Quan Buckley has moved from the defensive lineman to the offensive line in the run-up to the 2024 season.

Buckley has been with the Huskers since 2021. Last season he appeared in eight games on the defensive line. He recorded a quarterback hurry against Louisiana Tech and a solo tackle against Michigan.

The Michigan native was the youngest member of his Husker recruiting class, as he did not turn 18 until two months into his freshman season. Matt Rhule has spoken before about his willingness to switch player positions, and this move appears to be another example of that belief.
