Continue ReadingWith the 2021 season over, we’re looking at linebacker prospects at the small school classification that have been productive this year. All of these prospects 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.
Tavian Villarrreal- Gateway Charter High c/o 24
Hgt-N/A Wgt-N/A
Villarrreal finished third in the Sunshine State Athletic Conference in tackles registering 102, averaged 11 tackles per game, two sacks, two interceptions and four forced fumbles. Shows impressive acceleration playing in space and getting into the backfield, chase and hit backer that is very active and is always around the ball, can play in space and is a good open-field tackler. Sophomore Prospect that’ll get better every year.

Luke Boivin- The Master’s Academy c/o 23
6’1 210lbs
Boivin is a very versatile athlete for the Master’s Academy in Oviedo Florida, he played on both sides of the ball in 2021. He rushed for 241 yards and averaged 12 yards per carry, also registered 15 catches for 311 yards and on the defensive side of the ball total 92 tackles, 11 tackles for loss three sacks and two ints! He’s a prospect that could play multiple positions at the next level, has good size, shows good hands in the passing game, has good vision in the running game, and has instincts on the defensive side of the ball. He’s an outstanding student with a 4.4 GPA and a 1370 SAT score.

John Langsam- St. Edwards High c/o 23
Hgt-N/A Wgt-N/A
Langsam finished fifth in the Sunshine State Conference a led St. Edwards with with 90 tackles, averaged 15 tackles per game, 7 tackles for loss and a sack. Very productive player, unfortunately couldn’t find any Hudl film, but is a player coaches may want to get over to St. Edwards and check out based on production.
Brent Summers- Seven Rivers Christian c/o 23
6’0 190lbs
Seven Rivers has several small school college prospects on their roster and Summers is one of them. A very good athlete that excels on both sides of the ball, was the team leader in rushing with 806 yards, averaged eight yards per carry with seven rushing touchdowns. On the defensive side of the ball linebacker finished with 73 tackles, nine tackles for loss and two sacks. Most of his highlights is on offense, but I believe defense will be where he plays at the next level. He shows very good acceleration and speed off the edge, can play sideline to sideline and track down ball carriers because of his speed, range and athleticism. Definitely a player coaches need to check out.
