No stars that could develop into blue-chips: Christopher Columbus

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Christopher Columbus High School, located in South Miami-Dade County, is one of South Florida's powerhouse programs. The school has earned two state titles in its history and is in contention for another in 2026. The program is known for developing its players, and there are few relatively unknown nationally who could grow into top-50 national prospects.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Here are a few athletes to watch in the coming years who will be developing into Explorers and should be on the national radar.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1879570"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a822ec13895a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The Lakewood transfer is a versatile athlete with elite playmaking ability. He shows tremendous balance when being hit with the football in his hands and is a threat to get big yardage when given space. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Green is also a dangerous return man who makes deadly cuts in the open field, causing defenders to miss. He consistently does well in avoiding the first potential tackler and has the speed to take it the distance. Green is a game changer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Offers: Louisville, Pitt, SMU, Tulane, USF</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game Highlights: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/25381600/6931b33bcd06d6b43c37615f">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/25381600/6931b33bcd06d6b43c37615f</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":2336472,"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a822ec138a0e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The sophomore running back catches the ball out of the backfield well and can turn on the jets for big gainers. Wilson also has tremendous balance for his age and is able to bounce of tacklers to gain extra yardage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He also does a great job of finding spaces after getting to the second level of the defense. Wilson Jr. could develop to five back nationally.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game Highlights: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/26614035/690211d8d5752084eb60df26">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/26614035/690211d8d5752084eb60df26</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1697678"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a822ec138a9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The potential for this freshman is through the roof.

He needs to develop a stronger lower body and increase his quickness off the ball, but Whittaker has the potential to be a five-star rated type of talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Offers: Miami, UCLA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2165889"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6a822ec138b2a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The younger brother of Mohammed Toure (Miami Hurricanes linebacker), is already towering over his adversaries at 6-foot-four. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">He is a versatile backer who pursues the football well and can make plays in coverage. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Offers: Alabama, Miami, Nebraska, Ohio State, Penn State</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Game Highlights: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/28395685/690239d572554d600e1e25cd">https://www.hudl.com/video/3/28395685/690239d572554d600e1e25cd</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
