2027 defensive linemen targets part 3

Summer is almost here, and that means high school recruits around the country will start taking official visits over the next few months. Charles Huff and the Memphis staff have been extremely active, offering numerous players in the class of 2027.

After looking at a handful of defensive linemen who have been offered by the Tigers, it’s time to wrap up the defensive linemen by looking at the final seven defensive linemen with offers from Memphis.

Tommy Callicut (Olive Branch, MS)

The Tigers offered Callicut in April, and he holds 15 offers, mainly from group of six programs. The defensive lineman isn’t ranked by 247Sports or On3, and he hasn’t set up any official visits. 

Callicut recorded 40 tackles, 6.5 tackles for loss and a sack in eight games during his junior season.

Braylon Cone (Statesboro, GA)

Cone holds 14 offers, and the Tigers offered him in January. The 6-foot-2 and 310-pound defensive lineman has set up an official visit with Kennesaw State, but it appears that is the only visit he has set so far.

The defensive lineman recorded 53 tackles, 12 tackles for a loss and three sacks in 12 games last season.

Jamaree Horton (Chesapeake, VA)

Horton is listed as a three-star recruit by Rivals, and he holds 10 offers, according to 247Sports. Huff and his staff offered the defensive lineman last September, and he offered him in January shortly after taking the Memphis job.

According to his social media, Warren holds 20 offers, and the Tigers extended an offer in early February. Warren was on campus for an unofficial visit in April, and it will be interesting to see if Memphis can land an official visit with the local prospect.
