Let's get into some of the QB recruits that earned their name on the list.   [player_tooltip player_id='827385' first='Zander' last='Smith'] | QB | Class of 2025 | Lakeland | @zander_smith15   Record: 6-3   Smith has had a solid year in his first time in Orange and Black with the Lakeland Dreadnaughts who have battled the injury bug this season. Smith has dealt with injuries of his own but still leads the county in passing yards despite missing a game. He still has time to get timing and mechanics down before his senior season where he'll look to lock in some real college interest.    2023 stats: 84/114 (73%), 1150 yards, 13-3 TD-INT   Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15063916/6373b2fe6e810e0a240ed00b">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15063916/6373b2fe6e810e0a240ed00b</a>   Carson Montsdeoca | QB | Class of 2024 | Fort Meade | @CarsonMontsdeo1   Record: 8-0   Montsdeoca has led Fort Meade to an undefeated season so far behind center. The Florida baseball commit has a laser and showed he can play the position at the next level. The Miners are undefeated heading into a big-time game on Friday. Monstdeoca has let hit playmakers eat with good downfield throws and smart decisions.    2023 stats: 71/100 (71%), 1133 yards, 18-4 TD-INT   *Florida (UF) Baseball Commit   Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17808735/6334aa67f55fd707a8a35310">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17808735/6334aa67f55fd707a8a35310</a>   Bryce Levidiotis | QB | Class of 2025 | Lake Wales | @LevidiotisBryce   Record: 8-0   Levidiotis has helped the Highlanders to another unbeaten start as they are now 21-0 after winning the 2022 state championship. Levidiotis has shown off the off-season work with over 1,000 passing yards with tough two regular season matchups left.    2023 stats: 61/124 (49%), 1042 yards, 12-2 TD-INT    Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16326229/631d7dd564df200af0c8fd13">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16326229/631d7dd564df200af0c8fd13</a>   Jackson Benton | QB | Class of 2024 | Victory | @Jackson_ben10   Record: 5-4   Benton has risen on my radar list since taking the starting QB position at Victory this season. He's a decent game manager but can extend plays with his legs and stay accurate for downfield throws. Good frame at 6-2, 204 with upside and heart to compete at the next level.    2023 stats: 79/150 (52%), 1033 yards, 13-4 TD-INT - 241 rushing yards    Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/9307034/63d9cbf43864d405f8195587">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/9307034/63d9cbf43864d405f8195587</a>   [player_tooltip player_id='829494' first='John' last='Kostuch']  | QB | Class of 2025 | Winter Haven | @JohnKostuch    Record: 5-3   Kostuch continues to improve his overall game and potential to play at the next level. He's had a decent junior season for the Blue Devils who have won their last three games. He's shown off his accuracy in the pocket and ability to use his legs.    2023 stats not posted-    2022 Accolades: 18 TDs | 1,758 Passing Yds   Hudl: <a href="https://x.com/johnkostuch/status/1691962150485438641?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ">https://x.com/johnkostuch/status/1691962150485438641?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ</a>   Joel Morris | QB | Class of 2026 | Lake Gibson | @1_Joel_Morris   Record: 4-4   A tough season for the Braves who are without some production pieces combined with a hard schedule. Morris has made the most of his sophomore season, soaking up the real game experience while working out the kinks in his game. Still has plenty of time to put it all together and lock in those big-time D1 offers.    2023 stats: 83-163 (50%), 909 yards, 5-6 TD-INT - 2 rushing TD   Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/17760223">https://www.hudl.com/profile/17760223</a>   Aiden George | QB | Class of 2024 | Davenport | @Aidenjgeo   Record: 4-4   George is the lifeline of the Davenport offense as he uses his arm and legs to beat opposing defenses. He had a solid off-season and has proven to be a DOG that can provide versatility at the next level.    2023 stats: 64/110 (58%), 889 yards, 10-3 TD-INT - 37 rushes, 303 yards, 3 TD   Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15736118/651cc5753863f40a74e94eed">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/15736118/651cc5753863f40a74e94eed</a>   [player_tooltip player_id='1142239' first='Chad' last='Williams'] | QB | Class of 2026 | Auburndale | @ChadWqb12   Record: 7-1   The Bloodhounds have shocked some with the strong season they've had despite replacing production pieces lost before the season. Williams has been a bright spot on the offense as a young leader behind center that can get it done with his arm and limit turnovers.    2023 stats: 52/101 (51%), 864 yards, 7-3 TD-INT   Hudl: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17784211/65349ddd90ef0d0a089c73a9">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17784211/65349ddd90ef0d0a089c73a9</a>   Best of the Rest:    Dyvonique McWilliams | QB | Class of 2024 | Mulberry | @dyvonique   Record: 6-2   2023 stats: 34/75 (45%), 529 yards, 4-2 TD-INT - 49 rushes, 455 rushing yards, 9 TD   KJ Massey | QB | Class of 2025 | Sebring | @KJMassey8   Record: 5-2   2023 stats: 50/99 (50%), 512 yards, 6-3 TD-INT   Hudl: <a href="https://x.com/h2_recruiting/status/1703928486878973983?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ">https://x.com/h2_recruiting/status/1703928486878973983?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ</a>   KJ Valentine | QB | Class of 2024 | Bartow | @KJ_sparkin7   Record: 6-3   2023 stats: 26/50 | 431 yards | 7 TD – 32 carries | 210 rushing yards - 1 TD   Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17739872/64fdecd44deb2d007c08d947">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17739872/64fdec</a>   Kalvin Johnson | QB | Class of 2025 | Lake Region | @KalvinJohnson_8   2023 stats: 10/16 | 221 yards | 3 TD    Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/2/28695/64fc9d7e7bddc213b873e1a3">https://www.hudl.com/video/2/28695/64fc9d7e7bddc213b873e1a3</a>   Cameron Turner | QB | Class of 2025 | George Jenkins | @Cam_Turner10   2023 stats: 63/88 | 995 yards | 6 TD - 3 rushing TDs   Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16270890/65030170ab92a30510cfaa78">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16270890/65030170ab92a30510cfaa78</a>   Devonte Howard | QB | Class of 2026 | LCS | @DJhoward_6   2023 stats: 30/46, 359 yards, 2 TD   Film: <a href="https://x.com/h2_recruiting/status/1707566839176323272?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ">https://x.com/h2_recruiting/status/1707566839176323272?s=46&t=E0s2L9z46AqxWmKm25SmTQ</a>
