<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This content series is sponsored by <a href="https://gc.com/home/">GameChanger (gc.com</a>) – The Official Scorekeeping, Stats, Team Management &amp; Technology Partner of Prep Redzone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BRADENTON, Fl. –</strong> If you have read the past four days of event coverage, you already know that when it comes to keep promises and promoting talent, we have no equal.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>While last Saturday's <strong><em>Gamechangers Prep Redzone Football Showcase </em></strong>helped to shine the spotlight on some rising and established football prospects, it certainly opened some eyes to what happens year-round on this website and the social media pages that enhance the exposure. The promise to everyone who attended – just like it is in all of our Florida events – if you take the time to come out – we will promote you!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As we have now brought you profiles and videos on 24 prospects, today we continue to expose those football players who attended the event.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Check out some more under-the-radar prospects who had the chance to showcase their many skills:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 - Bernie Capote-Cubillas, FB/LB, 5-6, 201, </strong>Orlando Faith Christian Academy. The first thing you notice about this rising junior is how competitive he is. Mo matter what part of the showcase, he worked hard and wanted to get that spotlight. This is someone who will do whatever it takes to get on the field to compete. Whether it's as a nose tackle, linebacker or bruising fullback that can get those shorts and find the endzone, this is a very valuable player who will continue to get better.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/17853972/Bernie-CapoteCubillas" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/17853972/Bernie-CapoteCubillas</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 - [player_tooltip player_id='212346' first='Jasir' last='Groce'], CB/WR, 5-10, 160, St. Petersburg Northside Christian. </strong>The name of the game, especially when you are young and trying to establish yourself is to be versatile, attend as many things as possible and play several positions. This is a prospect who is going to check all boxes – coming to the showcase with the idea of turning heads and making an impact. Whether it was testing, drills or during competition, he is the kind of athlete who will make the most of his opportunities. On the field, he is a pure cornerback right now – with outstanding coverage skills and very good speed. Is still learning so much about the game, but he is the type of football player will only improve with maturity.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17972896/63c5d7ac3453540af8e0f5d5" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17972896/63c5d7ac3453540af8e0f5d5</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2026 - [player_tooltip player_id='773206' first='Oliver' last='Hernandez'], WR, 5-8, 135, Coral Gables. </strong>For a program that has turned out its share of star-studded football talent through the years, the Cavaliers have found themselves pressing the reset button recently, but with talent like this young man on the horizon, things may be changing for this storied program. From the moment the event began last Saturday, here is a talented rising sophomore who more than left a mark in testing, drills, and all-around play. His quickness and athleticism have helped him reach a level where he will continue to grow and mature. He runs really good patterns, has speed and just lacks overall experience which will come his way over the next three years. Plenty to like about this young man.<strong><br>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/18105621/Oliver-Hernandez" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/18105621/Oliver-Hernandez</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2024 - [player_tooltip player_id='773197' first='Fabian' last='Rodriguez'], QB/TE, 6-0, 185, Miami Springs. </strong>Makes his way over from Doral Academy for his junior season and is willing to do what is needed to thrust himself into the spotlight. At the event, he played the quarterback position and did well – with the passers getting plenty of reps during the day. Whether it was drills or the one-on-ones, he had the chance to showcase his many skills in front of the coaches on hand. Not only does he throw a good ball, but his ability to also lineup at the tight end position will open up his recruiting, giving college coaches an opportunity to see him become more versatile.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE</strong>:&nbsp; <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/13373019/Fabian-Rodriguez">https://www.hudl.com/profile/13373019/Fabian-Rodriguez</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 - [player_tooltip player_id='773168' first='Andre' last='Spence'], LB, 5-11, 180, Navarre. </strong>There's really nothing not to like about this talented football prospect who is one of those young football players who can be an asset to any team. His play at the linebacker position is aggressive and will be something that will help him this spring and into the summer as the team gets ready for another competitive season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/15784486/Andre-Spence" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/15784486/Andre-Spence</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>2025 - Dajien Walton, LB, 6-1, 172, Sarasota Booker. </strong>From the first time we watched him during the testing portion of the showcase, we were impressed with what he brought to the table as a football player who was eager to impress. Through drills and one-on-one he remained consistent and passionate about being there to showcase his skills and put himself on the map. As a football prospect his has size, football skills and will develop as a run-stopper and as a defender on passing downs. Lot to like about this young man's future on the football field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/17618281/Dajien-Walton" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/17618281/Dajien-Walton</a><strong></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>VIDEO COVERAGE OF THE FLORIDA GAMECHANGERS: </strong><a href="https://twitter.com/PrepRedzone/status/1648025287047761920?s=20">https://twitter.com/PrepRedzone/status/1648025287047761920?s=20</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>PROSPECT SHEET:</strong> Statewide Coverage Daily. <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/03/statewide-daily-team-coverage/">https://prepredzone.com/2023/03/statewide-daily-team-coverage/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>You Can Contact [player_tooltip player_id='740586' first='Larry' last='Blustein'] with prospect or team information at: <a href="mailto:Floridakids1@aol.com">Floridakids1@aol.com</a>.</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
