<p>MIAMI, Fla. -- On Friday, Miami Central High School welcomed spectators and media to experience a newly renovated football field built on campus. The Rockets held their spring game last week, which culminates spring practice, and there was plenty of talent on display. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Rockets seem to have another superior defense going into this year's football season, but questions remain at quarterback as 2027 Korde Hinch took most of the snaps in the spring game while former Miami Southridge quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='487777' first='James' last='Perrone'] was seen observing. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Here are players that can help the most successful program in Miami-Dade County, the winner of nine state championships, get back to winning a title in 2026. Miami Central has not won a state title since 2022.</p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Efunbajo plays with high motor and has violent hands when disengaging from offensive linemen. He does a solid job of setting the edge, not allowing big chunk yard plays to happen.</p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Canadian talent keeps his head up well to identify ball carriers and make plays. He displays top-tier lateral movement and has the strength to use his leverage to stave off blockers to make tackles. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Jordan has a chance to be an elite corner on the next level with his size and speed. The former Miami Carol City cornerback knows how to track the football in the air on deep balls and could also excel as a free safety in college. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Despite his size, he still has room to build lower-body strength. He is, however, a strong tackler who can force fumbles. Jordan has a high ceiling and could be a tremendous defensive back in the upcoming years. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">The two-way athlete is an above-average cover corner who likes to be physical in man coverage. He can also make plays in zone, as his instincts allow him to react quickly to the football. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} -->
<p class="text-gray-700">The transfer from Mater Academy made big plays as a wide receiver last season, finding soft spots in the zone for big gains. Boyd is also a dangerous kick returner, as his shifty movements and breakaway speed make him a legitimate threat to score with every touch. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Miller is a physical corner with prototypical size for the college and pro levels. He is a quick reactor on the football field and a sure tackler in the open field. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The talent from Miami-Dade County is imposing in man coverage and has the speed to recover if beaten deep. He has the physical traits to play at a high level at all secondary positions and can also be utilized on offense as a wide receiver. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700">Keita is a high-level athlete who seems to be just scratching the surface of his potential. He is a physical player who enjoys inflicting contact and has the agility to beat defenders in the open field. </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>The Canadian native can contort his body to adjust to the football and can get physical as a blocker in the running game. He gets upfield quickly and will be a mismatch for many undersized linebackers and defensive backs. </p>
