25´ 4-star LB Gavin Nix schedules visit to Miami’s Junior Day This Week
Class of 2025 linebacker Gavin Nix, of Bradenton (Fla.) IMG Academy, has scheduled a visit Miami junior day this weekend.
Nix is a four-star recruit everywhere, Rivals.com thinks he’s a top-100 player in the class of 2025, the On3 industry ranking — which uses a weighted average of all four major services — puts him at No. 174 overall and No. 22 among linebackers in the class.
Nix already has offers from Alabama, Florida, Florida State, Texas, Michigan, Penn State, Tennessee, Auburn, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, South Carolina, Kentucky, West Virginia and Georgia Tech.
After playing his freshman season at Orlando (Fla.) Lake Highland, Nix transferred to IMG as a sophomore. He’s 6-1 and is listed anywhere from 215 to 226. Nix is already well built for such a young player, and he plays with impressive power for such a young athlete. Nix lacks great height, but his length is impressive, his downhill burst stands out and his change of direction stands out on film.
Nix has the potential to be an impact run defender up the middle thanks to his physical tools and ability to make clean reads, which stands out for his age. Nix has potential as a pass rusher and he has plenty of experience in coverage.
