Brayshon Williams Brayshon Williams 5'11" | 170 lbs | DB Lakeland | 2024 State FL | Class of 2024 | Lakeland | @Brayshon
Not sure how everyone forgot but this kid is a pure athlete that can make an impact at the next level. Moved over to the receiver position this season but still is valuable for college coaches to take a look at.
Kordell Lewis | 2024 | WR | Lake Gibson | @kordell_lewis
Lewis has one last chance at the Prep level in pads to show he’s the real deal and tough to guard for any defensive back in the area. Really good length, speed, hands, route running – pretty much everything college coaches need to work with.
2023 stats: 26 receptions – 445 yards – 6 TD – 638 All Purpose yards
Quavion Bird Quavion Bird 6'1" | 265 lbs | DL Bartow | 2024 FL | DT | Class of 2024 | @bird_quavion
The Central Michigan commit is a beast in the trenches that has made it known to opposing offenses. He was an anchor on the defensive line to help Bartow complete a much-needed district comeback.
Ryan Screen | WR | 2024 | Fort Meade | @s_ryanscreen
This kid was electric during the off-season and had his best year this season with Fort Meade. He’s a mumble slot receiver with good route running skills and big-play capability.
Marcellous Washington | DB | 2024 | Kathleen | @Marcellousw25
The 6-1, 193-pounder is still available for college coaches to look at. He picked up some nice offers during the 2023 year and is looking to make a name for himself against his peers.
Jeremiah Martin | DL | 2024 | Bartow | @00Agent1
This kid is a physical and coachable prospect that should get a look from some of the local colleges looking to lock in hometown kids. Had a productive senior season for the Bartow Yellow Jackets last year.
Rickeem Armstrong | WR | Class of 2024 | Lake Gibson | @Rickeem4
An athletic prospect who has played multiple positions but is mainly used as a wide receiver. Good framed senior at 6-1, 185-pounds with decent speed and route running skills but with more time in the weight room and training technique, Armstrong has good upside.
Tahjae Mcqueen | WR | Class of 2024 | Haines City | @TahjaeMcqueen10
Mcqueen gives off that DOG energy each time I see him. He moved over to Haines City High for his senior season but has shown off good route running skills. Got to get my eyes on his development as we head into the early part of the off season.
Aiden George | QB | 2024 | Davenport | @Aidenjge
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: 109/197 (53%) – 1530 passing yards – 16-7 TD/INT | 72 rushes – 688 rushing yards – 6 TD
Semaj Bennett | ATH | Class of 2024 | Fort Meade | @Manjnueve9
Bennett made an impact on the Fort Meade defense after making the move over for his senior season. Impressed with his dedication to get better. Decent frame and tackling ability for the position.
Brenshawn Brito | DB / ATH | Class of 2024 | Lakeland | @brenshawnbrito
Benjamin Brito | WR | 2024 | Kathleen | @whyb3n
BJ McKinney | ATH | Class of 2024 | Lake Region | @BJ_mckinney2
Ashton White | LB | 2024 | Fort Meade | @ashtontofye23
White is the leader and head hunter of the Miners’ linebacker core and he showed that throughout the season. He’s some big-time tackles and the numbers show that.
Wade Tyer Wade Tyer 6'1" | 200 lbs | LB Lakeland Lake Gibson | 2024 FL | LB | 2024 | Lake Gibson | @WadeTyer1
One of the more underrated linebackers in the area is tough with a nose for the ball. I said it earlier in the call. The kid is one of the more sure tacklers in the county. He’s a high-motor and physical player that isn’t afraid to put it on the line and make a play.
Kooper Jones | WR | 2024 | VCA | @kooper_jones
What a way to put your name on the map. Jones has defied all odds and finished as the top regular season receiving yards leader in Polk. He’s an underdog who uses that mentality to boost his efforts on the football field. Smart kid, with a big heart but has the talent just needs the exposure.
Jayden Mcpherson | WR | Class of 2024 | Santa Fe | @JaydenM012
A dual-sport athlete that has potential to play college ball.
