The Official Scorekeeping, Stats, Team Management &amp; Technology Partner of Prep Redzone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>BRADENTON, Fl. –</strong> It's been a week since the Florida stop in this year's GameChangers Prep Redzone Showcase and the athletes who attended are still receiving attention.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Promoting every football prospect that attended the IMG Academy event has been talked about, evaluated and are now out there for college coaches and fans to see.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As the showcase tour continues across the country, those who made their way to the event in Florida are talking about the experience and how the coaches and those who were a part of the April 15 testing, drills and competition have now all been talked about.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today, we wrap up the week-long coverage with a look at seven more football players.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Check out these young men:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CLASS OF 2025</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='773175' first='Cory' last='Carroll'], DB, 5-7, 145, Jacksonville Mandarin. </strong>Despite his size, this is one of those kinds of prospects that other players and coaches refer to as a “dog” – because of his relentless pursuit of getting better and playing with passion like he showed in every phase of the GameChangers event. Solid young man who plays for a quality Mustang team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/18609067/Cj-Carroll" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/18609067/Cj-Carroll</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='773204' first='Lucas' last='Francisco'], DT, 5-10, 227, Miami Christopher Columbus. </strong>Just being a part of a program like the defending 4M state champions, you tend to learn, mature and compete, and this quality talent headed to this year's showcase with the idea of getting exposure and being taught by the college coaches who made it a priority to get prospects better – even in a four-hour period. Over the next few years, this is another football player to watch. He will get bigger and more mature, which is something that ties into the entire process.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/16079411/Lucas-Francisco" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/16079411/Lucas-Francisco</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Dra Fullbright, CB/RB, 6-0, 170, Wayne County, Georgia. </strong>While the showcase did have a Florida flavor to it, we also saw some prospects that came from other areas in the southeast as well. Here is a versatile talent who does a lot of things well – from testing to drills to actual on field performance. On defense he is a physical playmaker at the corner position. His anticipation is impressive as he breaks on balls and is not afraid to stick his helmet in there on running plays. For a rising junior, this is certainly someone you want to keep an eye on. Lot to like here!<strong>&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE:</strong>&nbsp; <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17810437/637105c1a681a507684b9507">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17810437/637105c1a681a507684b9507</a><strong></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='633828' first='Peyton' last='Holloway'], DE, 5-10, 215, Niceville. </strong>Very few prospects worked as hard as this young man did, and while he may not have taken home the MVP, he was singled out by coaches who watched him perform during the testing and one-on-ones. A rising junior, who gets it done on the football field as well as in the classroom, where he boasts a 3.6 GPA. As a football prospect, he gets it – coming off the edge and showcasing his ability to read plays and make tackles. Keep your eye on this impressive talent who made it to Bradenton from the Panhandle.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/15185051/Peyton-Holloway/highlights" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/15185051/Peyton-Holloway/highlights</a><strong></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Thomas Huber, QB, 6-0, 175, Bradenton IMG Academy. </strong>Very few people at this year's event came further than this prospect. This native of Australia happens to attend IMG Academy, as he heads toward his junior season, his passion and improving skills puts him ahead of the game. His quickness, ability to make throws and understanding of the game gives him an advantage. It will be fun to watch his progress as he continues to learn the game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>CLASS OF 2026</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='401396' first='Dylan' last='Bennett'], LB, 5-11, 206, West Palm Beach Cardinal Newman. </strong>Plenty to like about this quality talent who was a big part of what this football team accomplished in 2022. Just a hungry football player who does it all – from testing to drills to competition, and what he did last season has plenty of people looking in his direction. As he showed on the field, he loves to compete, and it will surface once again this spring and into the summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18160129/6392b27864e06207b8d3e1e5" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/18160129/6392b27864e06207b8d3e1e5</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='773208' first='Samuel' last='Rodriguez'], RB/DB, 5-8, 165, Miami Springs. </strong>There is just something about an athlete who is hungry and anxious to prove that they are ready for the spotlight. Coming from Miami-Dade County, this is one of those talented prospects, who may be young, but do not for a minute believe that he won't make a huge contribution this spring and summer. In the showcase, this is a versatile talent that can play the running back position – or get those tough yards as a bruising runner. Tested well, showed he is willing to learn and compete against anyone.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/16929626/Samuel-Rodriguez/highlights" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://www.hudl.com/profile/16929626/Samuel-Rodriguez/highlights</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. https://prepredzone.com/2023/03/statewide-daily-team-coverage/</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Prep Redzone GameChangers MVPs.</strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/more-florida-gamechangers/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/more-florida-gamechangers/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>More Florida GameChangers.</strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/prep-redzone-gamechangers-mvps/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/prep-redzone-gamechangers-mvps/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Florida Prep Redzone GameChangers, Part 3.</strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-3/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-3/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Florida Prep Redzone GameChangers, Part 4. </strong><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-4/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-4/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Florida Prep Redzone GameChangers, Part 5.</strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-5/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">https://prepredzone.com/2023/04/florida-prep-redzone-gamechangers-part-5/</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></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 -->
