THE WILLIAMS FILE PLAYER: POSITION: WR SCHOOL: Plant City CLASS: 2021 HEIGHT: 5-11 WEIGHT: 170 PREP REDZONE FLORIDA PRE-SEASON RANKING: 4 THE SCOOP ON WILLIAMS: From the first time we had the pleasure of watching this quality football talent perform at the end of his freshman season, there was no doubt that this was going to be someone would be very special. Just the way he handled himself as a 15-year-old, you could tell that as each year passed, would add to his legacy – and he certainly has. Entering this final year at the high school level, this University of Oklahoma commit showcased skill and leadership for the Raiders. One of the nation’s premier performers, his three three-year 120 receptions, 2,448 yards and 33 touchdowns speaks for itself. Also a standout baseball player, who helped his team to a Class 8A state championship as a sophomore. The choice of Oklahoma came over powers such as Florida, Georgia, Alabama and LSU among others.

Here are 5 more impact players to watch: Oronde Gadsden II Oronde Gadsden II 6'4" | 220 lbs | WR American | 2021 FL , WR, 6-4, 190, Plantation American Heritage. Following in the footsteps of his father (Oronde Gadsden), who was not only a positive role model, but a productive receiver for the Miami Dolphins, here is a talented and versatile receiver who came into his own this past season for head coach Pat Surtain and the Patriots. Is headed toward a very impressive future. TAPE: https://www.hudl.com/profile/8333922/Oronde-Gadsden-II Davis Mallinger Davis Mallinger 6'0" | 170 lbs | WR Cocoa | 2021 FL , WR, 6-0, 170, Cocoa. This recent transfer from Melbourne is one of the hidden gems in Florida. A solid pass catcher who combines speed and plenty of athleticism. But time football players that head coach Ryan Schneider and the Tigers are going to utilize in many ways. He is a UCF commitment.

Not only is this gifted prospect an excellent football player, using plenty of skill and game-breaking ability, but he is also one of the premier long jumpers in the state, ranked No. 1 in his class and No. 4 overall. That shows what this young man brings to the table as over overall athlete.

Talk about an under-the-radar prospect, before January, very few knew much about him, but as more and more people had the pleasure of seeing him perform, he had everything that college coaches are looking for. If anyone really needs this upcoming season, it’s this young man who is anxious to show head coach Brian Sheridan and his teammates exactly what he brings to the table.

In a state loaded with talented receivers, here is yet another one in the Panhandle that has already turned heads and has been able to make a major impact for a program that started to turn the corner in 2019, and figures to be right back in the mix in 2020. Has size, speed and plenty of skill. One of the prospects certainly on the rise.
