The 2025 Under Armour All-America Game promises to be a spectacle of high school football talent, featuring 18 five-star prospects and over 100 elite players from the 2025 and 2026 recruiting classes.
Since its inception in 2008, the All-America contest has been a premier platform for blue-chip talent, and this year is no exception. Here are the top 10 players to watch in the 2025 Under Armour All-America Game.
Top 10 Players To Watch in the 2025 Under Armour All-America Game
For the first time, juniors have been invited to compete, adding a fresh layer of intrigue. The weeklong practices culminate in a clash between Team Icon and Team Unstoppable, with ESPN broadcasting the action. For more on how to watch the 2025 Under Armour All-American Game, we’ve got you covered.
Note: the program a player has committed to will be in parentheses
Julian Lewis, QB (Colorado)
Julian Lewis was named MaxPreps National Sophomore of the Year last season before reclassifying from the 2026 cycle to 2025. However, he was even better as a junior, tossing 48 TDs to seven INTs while completing a whopping 75.6% of his passes. With a compact release that easily generates velocity and a calm demeanor under duress, there are few holes in his game, hence his five-star rating.
After originally committing to the USC Trojans, Lewis flipped to Deion Sanders’ Colorado Buffaloes prior to the early signing period. He’ll likely serve as the backup — if not redshirt — his freshman season with former Liberty Flames star Kaidon Salter joining the squad via the transfer portal.
Keelon Russell, QB (Alabama)
Keelon Russell is a pass-first QB with buttery smooth athleticism who glides on the field. Duncanville won two state championships and went 42-2 under Russell’s guidance. Over the past two seasons, he generated 7,444 yards, 90 TDs, and only seven INTs, adding another 627 yards and seven scores on the ground.
With pocket mobility, good decision-making, and free-flowing arm talent, he is the new DangeRuss.
Dakorien Moore, WR (Oregon)
Oh, look; it’s Russell’s top target at Duncanville!
The two have created a symbiotic relationship that no high school defense was able to stop. Now, they’ll have one last showcase as teammates on Team Icon.

Dakorien Moore may be the most versatile and accomplished player in the 2025 class. Not only did he rack up an astonishing 71-1,523-18 receiving line in Dunacville’s 2023 title-winning campaign, but he did so playing both ways as a cornerback. Adding to his allure, Moore hit 10.4 seconds in the 100-meter dash and more than 23 feet in the long jump.
Immanuel Iheanacho, OL (Uncommitted)
How do you define versatility? It doesn’t matter; Immanuel Iheanacho certainly checks the box: he plays basketball, saw time at both left and right tackle, and lined up on the defensive side of the ball for some reps.
Standing 6’6″ and 350 pounds, Iheanacho is a behemoth wherever he lines up and comes equipped with elite power generation potential. Yet, he actually carries his size well and uses his impressive length to forklift defenders.
Savion Hiter, RB (Uncommitted)
As a freshman, Savion Hiter posted a 6.67 55-meter and an 11.11 100-meter. Last season, he averaged 7.91 yards per carry en route to 1,187 yards and 11 TDs. He even took two kick returns to the house! Clearly, Hiter is a home-run threat with the ball in his hands, and he’ll aim to showcase just that against elite competition at the All-America Game.
Na’eem Offord, DB (Oregon)
On Dec. 4, the Oregon Ducks flipped five-star DB Na’eem Offord from the Ohio State Buckeyes, giving them a top-15 recruit on each side of the ball. As is practically a prerequisite for Oregon players at this point, Offord was a track star in his high school career.
He qualified for state in the 200-meter as a freshman and the 60-meter indoor dash as a sophomore, owning personal bests of 22.35 and 7.15, respectively. Offord has also shined in all three phases on the football field, highlighting his raw athleticism in 10 games in 2023:
- Defense: 14 tackles and four INTs
- Offense: 22-182-4 rushing line and 12-211-2 receiving line
- Special teams: two punt return TDs
Michael Fasusi, OL (Oklahoma)
Michael Fasusi is already a mammoth of a human at 6’6″ and nearly 300 pounds. Thus, it’s not surprising that he routinely mauls high school defenders, but what is surprising is his mobility at his size. While Fasusi is still a bit raw as a technician, he has the physical gifts a coach can mold into an all-conference mainstay.

His services are severely needed in Norman, as the Oklahoma Sooners are coming off one of their most disappointing seasons in recent memory, particularly on the offensive side of the ball.
Jackson Cantwell, OL (Uncommitted)
Jackson Cantwell already has an NFL frame (6’7″ and 300 pounds) as a junior. In 2023, he was credited with 91 pancake blocks and zero sacks allowed while winning Gatorade Missouri Boys Track & Field Player of the Year for his shot put efforts — talk about a dual threat.
Cantwell has also played basketball for Missouri’s Nixa High School, and his footwork and athleticism are visible on the football field. He has some work to do as a pass blocker, but all the ingredients of an all-conference player are there.
Elijah Griffin, DL (Georgia)
There are game-wreckers, and then there is Elijah Griffin. In 46 high school games, he produced 301 tackles, 96 TFLs, and 44 sacks. The scholarship offers came in droves, with nearly every blueblood program pursuing Griffin’s services. However, the 6’3″ and 285-pound DT chose the defensive-dominant Georgia Bulldogs as his collegiate home.
Tristen Keys, WR (Uncommitted)
Even if Tristen Keys comes in a tad shorter than his 6’2″ listing, he has long legs for explosive strides and levers for arms that increase his catch radius. His track background (Mississippi 6A state qualifier as a sophomore in the high jump, triple jump, and 110-meter hurdles) is also evident in his downfield ability.

In 2024, he racked up 1,275 yards and 14 TDs on 58 receptions, consistently stacking DBs, not shying away from contact, and exhibiting translatable body control. While not a technically refined route runner, Keys has all the tools to unlock whichever collegiate offense he joins in the 2026 class.
