2025 Player Updates – Part 1

Through the course of two years, we are pleased to bring you rankings for all classes.

During that time, new prospects are added from the vast amount of talent that encompasses the Sunshine State and over 850 miles from the Florida Keys into the Central Time Zone in the Panhandle.

With over 500 football-playing schools it is never easy to get every gifted player ranked, but as you know – from off-season camps and combines to spring practices and a season that lasts from the end of August until the second week of December, Prep Redzone watches more talent LIVE than any other source in the state.

While it's easy to keep track of the star-rated athletes, our ability to follow and promote those talented football players who are not in the spotlight is what has made this website and our social media what it is today.

During our second Class of 2025 ranking – with the spring and summer ahead - we added some new names to keep an eye on.
