Trezmen Marshall:

Marshall is more of a projection than Bertrand. He’s also the most recent UGA commit and he’s someone a lot of fans dreamed would line up next to Pappoe. From a physical stand point, Marshall is more of a thumper than some of the other guys on this list. He’s also got the most growing to do because right now, he’s spending a lot of time on offense.

Physically, the guy is something else. He’s the same height as Bertrand, but he’s easily 20lbs heavier than him. He’s basically already the same size Roquan was when he left UGA. While he doesn’t quite have the freak Smith speed, he’s incredibly explosive.

Marshall is the next evolution of Nartez Patrick. He’s going to come into the program and be a guy who blows up the running game. I also expect him to be someone the Dawgs blitz from all sorts of positions. There are plays on his tape where the guy plays nose tackle and beats out guards. He’s just a ridiculous athlete to watch.

He’s got a ways to go, but Marshall is the real deal. This is one of the most exciting linebacker prospects in the entire country. He’ll be one of the biggest guys in that ILB room when he arrives and he’s got the frame to be a 250lb guy. When you look at the raw tools, this is someone who could be an absolute wrecking ball in the Kirby Smart defense.
