RE: 2025 Stanford Football Personnel - Langdude - 08-20-2025

Notes on the 2025 Stanford Football Personnel grid:

1. The grid lists players by class year and not eligibility. Freshman players generally do not play enough to use a year of eligibility, but if a player has done so, it is denoted.

2. To the 2024 Stanford Football Personnel grid, I have added 35 players.
    a. The 18-person incoming “CardClass25,” consisting of 17 scholarship players and one preferred walk-on (PWO)
    b. Seventeen transfer student-athletes; school year denoted is for 2025 season. Those who started more than once for their old school marked in bold.
            ==> 6th year QB Ben Gulbranson (Oregon State)
            ==> Junior QB Dylan Rizk (UCF)
            ==> 5th year RB Tuna Altahir (EWU)
            ==> 5th year TE Brendan Doyle (Memphis)
            ==> 5th year WR David Pantelis (Yale)
            ==> Senior WR CJ Williams (USC/Wisconsin)
            ==> Junior WR Caden High (Benedict/South Carolina State)
            ==> Junior WR Jordan Onovughe (Colorado)
            ==> Senior OT Niki Prongos (UCLA)
            ==> Sophomore OG Kai Greer (Georgia Tech)
            ==> Junior OG Nick Fattig (Texas Tech)
            ==> 5th year C Nathan Mejia (Sacramento State)
            ==> 5th year ILB Hunter Barth (Kal)
            ==> Junior ILB Zach Johnson (Idaho)
            ==> 5th year CB Jordan Washington (Dartmouth)
            ==> Sophomore CB Breylan Thompson (Yale)
            ==> Sophomore CB Sam Neely III (Wake Forest)
Note: CJ Williams, and Breylan Thompson have burned their redshirts; all others have not. Zach Johnson played in five games as a freshman (and 14 as a sophomore) at Idaho, but for some reason he was able to retain his redshirt. Ditto Caden High, who played extensively his freshman year at Benedict before playing his sophomore year at SCSU, but perhaps because Benedit is DII, it did not count.

3. From the 2024 Stanford Football Personnel grid, I have removed 35 players; those who started at some point in their career marked in bold, walk-ons at Stanford marked in italics.
    a. Five players declaring for the NFL draft; year denoted is for 2024 season
              ==> Junior WR Elic Ayomanor (4th round, Titans)
              ==> 5th year C Levi Rogers (UDFA, Bills)
              ==> 6th year ILB Tristan Sinclair (UDFA, 49ers)
              ==> 5th year DT Tobin Phillips (undrafted, unsigned)
              ==> Senior ILB Gaethan Bernadel (undrafted, unsigned)
    b. Twenty-four players who transferred or are seeking a transfer; school year denoted is for 2025 season
          1) Two 6th year players
              ==> TE Lukas Ungar (New Mexico State)
              ==> S Omari Porter (Rice)
          2) Nine 5th year players
              ==> QB Justin Lamson (Montana State)
              ==> WR Jayson Raines (Northern Arizona University)
              ==> WR David Kasemervisz (Rice)
              ==> WR Evan Jackson (no takers)
              ==> OT Connor McLaughlin (University of Southern Florida)
              ==> OG Austin Uke (Miami (OH))
              ==> OG Trevor Mayberry (Mississippi State)
              ==> S Kale Lucas (no takers)
              ==> P Connor Weselman (Missouri)
          2) Five seniors
              ==> QB Ashton Daniels (Auburn)
              ==> RB Ryan Butler (Rice)
              ==> WR Mudia Reuben (University of Southern Florida)
              ==> OG Jake Maikkula (Oklahoma)
              ==> OLB David Bailey (Texas Tech)
          3) Six juniors
              ==> WR Tiger Bachmeier (BYU)
              ==> WR Jackson Harris (Hawaii)
              ==> WR Ismael Cisse (Arkansas)
              ==> WR Ahmari Borden (Mississippi Valley State)
              ==> OT Luke Baklenko (Oklahoma)
              ==> CB Jshawn Frausto-Ramos (Arizona)
          4) Two sophomores
              ==> WR Chase Farrell (Northwestern)
              ==> WR Emmett Mosley IV (Texas)
    c. One player who exhausted their eligibility; school year denoted is for 2024 season
              ==> CB Zahran Manley (6th year)
    d. Five players graduating or retiring (with eligibility remaining); school year denoted is for 2025 season
              ==> RB Kenaj Washington (senior)
              ==> TE Shield Taylor (5th year)
              ==> C Allen Thomason (junior)
              ==> DE Aristotle Taylor (5th year)
              ==> CB Adam Rourke (junior)

4. Other Changes
    a. There five position switches.
              ==> Sophomore Ziron Brown OG --> C
              ==> Sophomore Carson Caplan (walk-on) OG --> C
              ==> Junior Omar Staples OLB --> DE
              ==> Sophomore Maxwell Richardson ILB --> OLB
              ==> Sophomore Drew Cunningham (walk-on) ILB --> OLB
    b. There are two minor name changes.
              ==> Junior RB Caleb Hampton is now listed as Champ Hampton
              ==> Senior S Jaivion Green is now listed as Jay Green
    c. Three players regained their previously burnt redshirt because they were not able to play more than four games in 2024.
              ==> Junior S Ché Ojarikre
              ==> Senior S Jay Green
              ==> Senior WR Jason Thompson (walk-on)

5. Other Transfer Notes
a. Outgoing 5th year QB Justin Lamson and senior RB Ryan Butler are each going to their third college after transferring to Stanford from Syracuse and Princeton, respectively.
b. Two other players were officially counted as going through the transfer portal, even though they never officially played on the team.
==> Heralded freshman QB Bear Bachmeier declared for Stanford and actually enrolled, participating in part of spring ball before entering the transfer portal and transferring to BYU before his freshman year began.
==> Fifth-year CB Julian Neal entered the transfer portal from Fresno State and declared for Stanford, but then re-entered the portal before enrolling, “transferring” his declaration to Arkansas.
c. There were several former Stanford football players who also entered the transfer portal.
==> 5th year RB Brendan Barrow, who last played on the team in 2023, will be playing at the University of Rhode Island.
==> S Jaden Slocum, who last played on the team in 2023 as a junior, and CB Brandon Jones, who last played on the team in 2022 as a junior, both entered their names into the transfer portal, but had no takers.
==> In a really cool story, Carson Berger, who last played as a freshman walk-on ILB at Stanford in 2023, is now playing for the University of Texas as a walk-on RB.

6. Roster Positioning Errata
a. The official roster does not designate specific positions for most offensive and defensive linemen. I have listed OL and DL players at specific positions in the grid based on recruiting profiles to help us discern depth, pipeline, and possible starting combinations, though the grid designation of specific players will likely change as positions are determined by the coaching staff.
b. When a player is listed on the official roster at two positions or it is ambiguous (e.g., “defensive back” or “athlete”), I have listed them in the grid according to the position where they appear the most (Devery Hamilton Rule).

As always, I appreciate any corrections or input.

Fantastic, and near-identical to what I have. Only a couple tiny nits:

Your current table totals 88 scholarships, not 87 :) And with Kenney now, my count is 89.

  • Kai Greer is a guard for now
  • Tre Williams is an ILB (roster is wrong)
  • Ese Dubre is an OLB (roster is wrong)
  • Hunter Barth is a fifth year, not a sixth year (roster says “spent 5 years at Cal,” but he was an EE in 2021 - he was there for 4 football seasons)
  • Emmet Kenney is now on scholarship! Earned last year during the season

Your current table totals 88 scholarships, not 87 :) And with Kenney now, my count is 89.

Thanks, as always, Sam. You're the best.

I'm confused re: Griffin Waiss. His profile on the UW site (where I got my info) says that he was rostered on the 2021 team. The team roster from that year says the same. That would make this his fifth year, and last of eligibility.

Thanks for the positioning info re: Kai Greer. I was going by his recruiting profile, but good to know that they have him at guard. I wish they'd go back to listing OL and DL by primary position.

Thanks also for the info re: Tre Williams and Ese Dubre. Has the roster always been wrong, or did they switch positions from last year?

And I was definitely confused re: Hunter Barth! On his Kal profile, it says that he "did not play" on the 2020 team, implying he was part of the team. But it also listed him as playing on his high school team in 2020! Thanks for the help; it makes sense that he was EE in 2021, and this was merely a mistake on the website. Figures. Kal. :)

Finally, I'm super happy to hear that Emmet Kenney got a scholarship. He deserves it. Maybe Aiden Flintoff will get one next year. :)

And numbers corrected...

RE: 2025 Stanford Football Personnel - newguy - 08-21-2025

That's the info I have. He was brought in specifically to play center after Levi Rogers's graduation, too. A brobdingnagian bummer. Now they have to speed up the development of Ziron Brown and Carson Caplan (a walk-on), both of whom are switching from guard.

RE: 2025 Stanford Football Personnel - ADPinWDC - 09-19-2025

Excellent summary... and worrisome O-Line.
Plus, RB performance vs BYU was abysmal (lack of blocking rather than RBs). 

Our lone strength seems to be the back 7 or 8 on Defense, so we need 3 Turnovers on Defense and a couple pick-sixes -- yeah, that will help.  
VIRG will have good BYU film to work from, sadly.

Looking grim for Fall 2026. 
Which QB?  
Starting RBs? 
Condition of O-Line?
Depleted Defense. 

Prediction is Stanford picked last in ACC?


RE: 2025 Stanford Football Personnel - JJJ - 04-15-2026

I happened to come across this podcast which featured an interview with Davis Warren. What a journey he’s had! I’m rooting for him to do well.
