All of these prospects should all be getting looks for the next level. Prep Redzone Florida will always promote everybody in hopes of them getting the opportunity of playing college football at the next level.
Judah Knight, RB- Viera High c/o 24
5’11 175lbs
Knight could end up being one of the best backs in Florida by the time he’s a senior. He had a strong spring game rushing for 148 yards and a touchdown and averaged over 11 yards per carry. He followed that up with a solid performance in the kickoff classic last week. He has very good vision and terrific feed in the hole, can start and stop in a blink, shows quickness to the edge, and also has the agility and burst to excel running inside or outside. Terrific prospect that I look forward to following the next several seasons.
Domenico Fusca- Cardinal Newman
5’10 200lbs
Fusca is a good two-way player that also excels at linebacker on defense. He rushed for 346 yards and three touchdowns and also has 29 tackles and two sacks on defense in 2020. He’s a power back that runs hard and has some shiftiness to his game. He reads his blocks well and has pretty good vision, could play on either side of the ball at the next level. He should make a big jump in production this season. Hes also an outstanding student with a 4.38 GPA

Matthew Wilson- Stoneman Douglas c/o 23
5’10 185lbs
Wilson is a very good sophomore prospect that rushed for 614 yards and 10 touchdowns last season for John Paul Academy. Wilson is a very shifty playmaker, has outstanding balance, and reads the field extremely well, is a three-down back that also shows the ability to be a weapon in the passing game. This offseason he transferred to Stoneman Douglas High and is off to a hot start, in his kickoff classic he rushed for 103 yards, and added 75 yards receiving and 2 total touchdowns

Jason Hogan Jason Hogan 6'1" | 165 lbs | RB Lemon Bay | 2022 FL – Lemon Bay High
6’1 170lbs
Hogan had an very good season in 2020, rushing for over 1300 yards and 26 touchdowns. Hogan is a one-cut back that does a good job on outside-zone feeling his way through traffic and can accelerate through the hole, he has good vision and patience, and does a really good job reading his blocks, he also shows the ability to drop his shoulder and deliver hit and run through arm tackles. Hogan is not only a good football player, but he’s a very good student as well, sporting a 3.4 GPA.
