He has had several new offers roll in as of late. Florida State, Clemson and Michigan are the most recent offers for this National recruit. Big potential at the P4 level.

In the last few weeks, Khamari Brooks Khamari Brooks 6'4" | 220 lbs | EDGE North Oconee | 2026 State GA has become a blue-chipper and one of the buzziest prospects in the southeast. Athletically, Brooks is in an elite class. He is 6’4 220 with plenty of physical growth left. While he is still a puppy, his movement skills and potential are off the charts. He can play on the ball and off the ball, while also doubling as a pass catcher and blocker on offense. He is consistently around the ball and plays in space well. Given his size, he is in rare company. I expect him to play as a bigger OLB at the next level. Several P4 schools will be involved in the sweepstakes.
