Class of 2025 North Shore (Texas) five-star cornerback Devin Sanchez is down to 10

Class of 2025 North Shore (Texas) five-star cornerback Devin Sanchez is one of the nation's most coveted athletes.

The 6-foot-2, 170-pound defensive back is rated the nation's No. 8 overall prospect and No. 2 cornerback and has generated scholarship offers from more than 30 college football programs.

On Thursday, Sanchez took a significant step forward in his recruitment, trimming his list to 10 schools - Alabama, Florida State, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas, Texas A&M and USC:

Of the nation's top eight prospects, only one - Saraland (Alabama) five-star wide receiver Ryan Williams (No. 4, Alabama) is committed.

So, the class of 2025 remains largely wide open.

Sanchez's cut takes him one step closer to coming off the board.

Here's what On3 had to say about Sanchez as a prospect:

"Tall, athletic cornerback with a high level of technical skill as an underclassman prospect. Stars for one of the top high school football programs in the state of Texas. Listed at an unverified 6-foot-2, 170 pounds. Took a big jump as a sophomore, showing lockdown tendencies, particularly in man coverage. Smooth and technical with the footwork, instincts and play speed to stay attached. Makes some impressive plays in downfield coverage. Turned in some strong track times as a sophomore, with a personal best of 10.81 seconds in the 100 meters. Looks to have one of the best size and speed combinations among cornerbacks early on in the 2025 cycle. Will need to continue adding good mass and strength in addition to continuing to develop his already solid ball skills.”
