There's not another junior in Georgia with the natural size, raw athleticism, and ceiling of potential as Julian Rochester.
And that's why the 6-foot-5, 300-pound defensive tackle from McEachern High School is rated as the state's No. 1 prospect for next year, per the 247sports composite rankings. (His top spot will be challenged this spring by another defensive tackle, Lanier High School's Derrick Brown)
When Rochester is motivated, he can take over a game. We saw flashes of it in the first quarter of the RisingSeniors.com junior all-star game last month.
Rochester is tight-lipped about recruiting, but opened up a little in the below video …
