‘23 NC DL Daevin Hobbs (Tennessee commit)

Fit
Hobbs will work all over Tennessee's defensive front. The Vols will primarily use him as an end as his body continues to fill out. He has the athleticism and frame to move inside and rush from an interior role in obvious passing situations where the Vols utilize more pass rush specialists already. Hobbs will work in various techniques and combos across his career on Rocky Top.

Impact Rating: 10 of 10
Hobbs is a massive pull for the Vols. He had a commitable offer to each school mentioned above, but Tennessee's relationships one out. The Vols brought in several nice pieces on defense last season, and they are expected to bring a talented core in this cycle. Hobbs will now be one of the crown jewels of this class and he has a chance to evolve into the face of the Tennessee defense for years to come. He is raw in some areas, but with Rodney Garner being the developer that he is, this is desired at times. Hobbs is a freakish athlete with insanse twitch and ability to get off the line. Tennessee does not have a number of targets left on the board for 2023 and it felt like they could not miss on Hobbs, and they didn't.
Impact Report: Vols Land Elite Defensive Lineman in Hobbs

Hobbs shines on both sides of the ball on the prep level for Concord (NC) Jay M Robinson. He’s a plus grade in every category from twitch, to power, to change-of-direction ability, and he can play in space and run. He can stunt, he can rush the passer, he can control the line of scrimmage, and as Tennessee aims to take the next step as a program in becoming a consistent national title contender, landing guys like Hobbs and beating out the Bulldogs and Crimson Tide for coveted defensive linemen is what you have to do.
Daevin Hobbs to Tennessee one of the biggest recruiting wins early in the Heupel era
