Five Seniors to Watch This Season

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='749678' first='Christian' last='Hudson'] | DT | 2025 | Mainland |&nbsp; @ChrisDaGoat07</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This kid has seen a huge jump in recruitment interest after a few dominant performances at competitive camps. He's seen a lot of love from local UCF who has been on a tear when keeping hometown talent in-state. Hudson recorded nearly 70 tackles with 27.0 tackles for loss to add. The rising three-star is a beast with his hands and technique to cause problems for opposing o-linemen. Watch out for interest in his talents to only grow as the spring approaches.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1314088' first='Maliki' last='Wright'] | ATH | 2025 | Dr. Phillips | @bigsgkaii</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>One of the premier athletes in the Central Florida area, Wright has shown to be a versatile playmaker who can make an impact at the next level. He has a list of Power 4 offers that includes Duke, Iowa State, and North Carolina State. He should continue to rise as he's a physical player with good skills and technique.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1317582' first='Makih' last='Johnson'] | WR | 2025 | CAI | @Makihjohnson2</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson is getting deserved attention this offseason with offers coming from Howard, Kent State, and more. He's since made a move to Tarpon Springs where he will retain connection with rising 2027 QB Joaquin Kavouklis. Each time I get eyes on Johnson, he flashes his advanced route running and soft hands. He has good speed for his 6'2, 190-pound frame and has shown his reliability to bring down catches consistently.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Robert Lee | LB | 2025 | Osceola | @RobertMikalLee</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I've watched this kid grow into his frame over the past year or so and I'm telling you now he's going to be a problem this season. Lee is a smart and technically sound prospect that likes to make it happen in the tackling department. He's put on around 10-15 pounds but hasn't lost speed or movement. Look out for his name to start popping near the spring period.&nbsp;</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='827410' first='Donta' last='Jenkins'] | DE | Class of 2025 | Lakeland | @dontaLjenkins&nbsp;</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The talented defensive end product led Plant City in sacks during his sophomore season and was listed on the 4M All-State Team. Jenkins has developed into one of the top defensive prospects in the hot bead Polk County region because of his versatility to be plug-and-play on the defensive line. Jenkins has decent strength combined with a quick first step which he uses to cause havoc in the backfield. Look out for him to continue to develop and see an uptick in his recruitment.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
