We are less than two weeks removed from the 2025 high school football season and players are already making moves.
With the official start of the 2026 portion of the school year, student/athletes – whether home schooled or attending the facility live in person – have started to let everyone know where they will play football in a season that doesn’t start for another eight to nine months.
Nobody can ever put their finger why south Florida – Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in particular – have so many transfers, but with “school of choice” and being able to learn from home – this region has become the talk of the country.
Many are bowled over how easy it is to just get up and make a move from one school to another, but for whatever reason, we already have a start that is threatening to match or surpass last year’s nearly 300 students who switched schools in just two counties.
With the state finals, and Miami-Dade and Broward Counties coming away with just one (St. Thomas Aquinas) champion, selling a brighter future is easier than ever before.
Programs who appeared down and out are suddenly “back in the game” with new classifications already being announced.
With literally hundreds more transfers taking place in the coming months, here is a sampling of a few prospects who could definitely change the playing field for the 2026 season.
REMEMBER, THIS IS JUST A FEW PROSPECTS. WE WILL CONTINUE TO SPOTLIGHT THE MANY PLAYERS WHO HAVE CHANGED LOCATIONS WITH A LISTING THAT WILL REFLECT EVERY PROSPECT WHO CHANGED SCHOOLS. COLLEGE COACHES DEPEND ON THE INFORMATION!
2027 – Trezavant Boyd, DB, 5’10, 155, Miami Central. From Miami Booker T. Washington to Hialeah Gardens Mater Academy and now to play for the Rockets, this is one of the elite rising seniors in the state – and fast-rising across the country. Watch this quality talent perform and you can see why he is so highly regarded. Catching a pass on him is never easy and he will continue to show it this coming season. He is indeed skilled and has schools such as Auburn, FSU, Miami, Georgia, Illinois and so many others looking in his direction.

2027 – Nick Lennear, WR, 6’0, 165, Miami Carol City. One of so many who are headed to Miami Gardens to play for first year head coach Toro Wallace, this may be one of the top 10 players in the country. Dominated since his youth football days at just about any position he plays. A premier pass catcher who helped to lead the Miami Northwestern Bulls to a pair of state title appearances. Currently the No. 2 rated player in the state by Prep Redzone Florida. He has received offers from everyone, which includes Colorado, Miami, LSU, Indiana, FSU and Georgia being about the best.

2027 – Carlos Avila-Lopez, WR, 5’10, 175, Plantation. As a three-year varsity standout at NSU University School, this was someone who dominated as a pass catcher with his skill, speed and knowledge of the position. He makes the move to play for a program that continues to build, making the state playoffs for the second consecutive year under head coach Darrell Strong and his staff. Finished with over 600 yards for a program that made another strong run in the playoffs. Keep your eye on this outstanding football talent who has the chance to be special for the Colonels in 2026.

2027 – Kai Moore, QB, 6’1, 195, Miami Christopher Columbus – 3.7 GPA. After waiting his turn to start at Miami Norland for two years, he had the opportunity to turn heads this past season for the Vikings, and as the landscape has changed, he heads south to play for an Explorer team that didn’t have the season that head coach Dave Dunn, and his staff have come to expect. Burst onto the scene two years ago as the MVP of the Prep Redzone Florida Orlando Combine. Threw for 2,656 yards and 26 touchdowns this past season for a state playoff team.

2027 – James Perrone, QB, 6’2, 186, Miami Central. After making a huge splash the first two years at Miami Southridge, he makes the move north to play for the Rockets after a 3,000 total yard season for the Spartans. Committed to attend the University of South Florida, he is considered one of the top five quarterback prospects in the class – and that should only improve in the off-season. In addition to new head coach Brian Hartline and the Bulls, programs such as Pittsburgh, Maryland, UCF and West Virginia have been in the mix.

2028 – Brady Quinn, QB, 6’1, 195, Hollywood Chaminade-Madonna. Ever since he could walk, this is someone who had a football in his hands as the son of Football University Managing Partner Steve Quinn. Having watched this young man perform several times, he is a game changer as he comes over from a Naples Lely team that made the playoffs with one of the highest-powered offenses (46 points per game) in the state. One of the state’s leaders as a sophomore, this is a complete prospect that finished with over 2,700 yards and 34 touchdowns passing and well over 250 yards on the ground. Huge asset for the Lions who have made the state finals 10 straight years!

2028 – Amir Sears, Athlete, 6’1, 170, Miami Christopher Columbus. When they rank the best sophomores in the country, here is someone who continues to pop up as a top 10 prospect who in the world of star rankings, is a solid 5 on both sides of the ball as well as on special teams. A major catalyst for West Broward’s first ever state championship appearance, he was elite as a freshman and last off-season as a top-flight 7-on-7 performer. He makes the move to play for the Explorers in hopes of getting that program back on track. While his numbers were impressive, his overall production was also something that you could not ignore. Is also being overwhelmed by college offers.
