This offseason, On3 circled Berry as 2025’s best RB prospect
In May, On3 named Berry the No. 1 running back in the 2025 class, and he stayed put in the same spot when the rankings were updated earlier this week.

“We knew the type of athlete he was, but seeing the feel for running was very impressive,” On3 National Director of Scouting and Rankings Charles Power said when naming Berry No. 1. “He hits some marks from a production standpoint. Doesn’t play the strongest competition, but dominates at a level that you would hope for from a prospect of his caliber. The player, there’s a ton to like with him.

“His burst, play speed and ability to change directions on a dime are arguably the best in the cycle. He backed that up with a great track season, culminating in state titles in 100 meters (10.57 seconds) and 200 meters (21.43 seconds).”

For a glimpse into the type of prospect the junior out of St. Martin is, look no further than track-and-field state titles in the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes as well as 4,723 all-purpose yards and 67 touchdowns across his freshman and sophomore seasons. Berry’s On3 comparison is former Texas and NFL star Jamaal Charles, while others sees the same similar running styles as players like Reggie Bush and the late Joe McKnight. Simply put, he’s elite – and he’s the highest-ranked running back out of Louisiana since Leonard Fournette.
