Gabe Funk brings rare tackle length and developmental upside to App State
At 6-foot-6 and 305 pounds in the 2025 season, Gabe Funk is the kind of big-frame Appalachian State offensive lineman who can grow into real Sun Belt value; he appeared in one game in 2025, mostly as a developmental piece, after a 2024 redshirt season. His high school résumé was strong too: two-time second-team all-state in Ohio, and he showed durability with 22 starts in two prep seasons. The appeal is simple: size, athletic projection, and a coachable, blue-collar profile with long-term starter traits.
