As the summer continues we have the pleasure of spotlighting a number of prospects that we have watched firsthand.

The importance, once again, of seeing these young men live rather on relying on video and word of mouth is to be able to give a valid evaluation. ANYONE can watch a film and feel they have an eye for talent, but college coaches need more than the same video that they can watch from the comfort of their office.

Recruiting comes down to character. Many prospects can run fast, make tackles and catch balls, but if they lack character and aren’t team players, it doesn’t matter what they bring to the table as a football player – because they are bringing the team down in other ways.

We have said often that is worth the extra effort to watch as many prospects live as possible and on multiple occasions.

Today, we once again shine the spotlight on five impressive Miami-Dade and Broward football prospects – on and off the playing field.

2024 – Germaine Carter, DT, 6-1, 285, Miami Norland. Even as he left Carol City to move up the road for his final season, this FIU commit remains one of the prospects that many really have not given his respect. Easily one of the strongest line prospects, who is quick and makes plays. Having watched him the past two seasons, he is tough to control because of that strength and skill level. The Vikings received someone who has a chance to dominate – with some elite football talent playing with him.

2026 – Jayden Chico, QB, 6-1, 186, Fort Lauderdale. From Fort Lauderdale Westminster Academy to Coral Glades and now with the Flying Ls, here is a talented young man who continues to grow and mature. A solid quarterback who has everything it takes to make a huge impact over the next few years. Has already started to turn heads this spring and summer – and is expected to continue right into the season.

2025 – King Davis, RB, 5-10, 160, Miami Northwestern. Like always, the Bulls have one of the state’s best running backs, and if the first two years are any indication, this team has an amazing back to lean on and create offensive balance. His ability to hit the hole and get through it quickly separates him from the rest. Strong, great balance and the ability to take it the distance from anywhere on the field.

2024 – Ryan Spallina, QB, 6-3, 185, Parkland Stoneman Douglas. Ask any football “guru” in south Florida about this quality prospect and most likely they’ve never heard of him or watched what he can do on the field. One of the most underrated quarterbacks in the state. He combines size, arm strength, decision making, speed and a 3.7 GPA in the classroom to open doors at the next level. He is one of the most dangerous quarterbacks in south Florida – and as the Eagles play in 2023 – college coaches will see exactly what he brings to the table. While he could play at just about any program, look for him to parlay his grades to end up at a prestigious academic institution.

2024 – Frank Watts Jr., S/LB, 6-3, 207, Miami Palmetto. Having watched him for the past two years at Miami Coral Reef, this is a gifted football talent who hit a growth spurt and is now not only a stellar safety, but also is considered to be a an emerging linebacker that many colleges are watching and appreciating.
