For much of the past two decades, the summer months signaled an opportunity for prospects and high school coaches to attend camps across the country.
While the emphasis at the beginning was to compete in those hot months of June and July, the purpose has taken on a new meaning – with dozens of bus caravan trips that take athletes to schools across the country, not only giving them exposure, but a chance to compete and showcase their skills against prospects from all over the nation.
Former Hialeah head coach Marc Berman was one of the first to take football prospects on these college road trips during the summer to see schools and at the same time, expose these high school kids to a rich history of states and cities they only read about in their classes.
The trips were nowhere like they are now – with competitions being held at every college and university. Back then, no 7-on-7 events or line camps existed. That was something you did back home at your own school.
These summer camps have now morphed into major exposure opportunities – with combines, camps, 7-on-7s and just about anything that exists.
Today, college coaches interact with those student/athletes who attend. Something the NCAA frowned on 20 years ago.
While everyone wants to claim they started off-season events, the actuality is very few colleges across the country ever attempted any of these summer events until the University of South Florida, assistant coach Renato Diaz and head coach Jim Leavitt began to hold their “Sling & Shoot” 7-on-7 competition that attracted schools from the immediate area around Tampa, but word spread fast.
Three years into this summer showcase, schools from as far away as Miami and Jacksonville would come to compete. It opened the door for schools across the nation to start hosting regional events.
Within the past decade, things have picked up in every corner of the country as high school coaches and players attended camps and events nationally, and while nobody can put their finger on the number of prospects who are impacted the most, it is something that has become a must.
Having been around in the 70’s and 80’s when the only football related thing happening was opening the weightroom a few times a week and throwing the ball around with teammates, we can tell you that with the Nike Camp showcasing national athletes, very few outlets were around to plant that flag in the sand.
Fort Lauderdale head coach Richard Dunbar took his team on an academic road trip last summer, playing football but also visiting top-flight academic institutions.
Several teams have embarked on their own adventure throughout the years – giving their players an experience they will long remember.
Because the NCAA gets involved when it’s convenient, the month of June is basically the only time that NCAA member schools can host these on campus events, but that has opened the month of July up to the smaller schools.
Programs such as head coach Doug Socha’s Keiser University hosts several camps during July, which includes a highly competitive 7-on-7 tournament. Other schools across the country do the same thing – taking full advantage of having the market cornered for the month.
July is also a time when local high schools and organizations host events that attract linemen, quarterbacks, receivers and teams.
While there is no guarantee that any of these events will produce a scholarship offer, the fact that you are creating memories and competing is all that matters in the end.

SOUTHWEST RANCHES - They came from Homestead and Miami, Fort Lauderdale and Hollywood on Saturday to get better, and when the day was done, nearly 100 south Florida high school football players turned some heads.
With Archbishop head coach Coach Dino Mangiero his staff, which included Patrick Cooney, the Mavericks hosted a college pre camp workout that attracted some prospects – young and old.
Among other coaches on hand included Jake Pew (LB), Ant Collins (DB), Coach Adam (OL), Jaccarre Givens (RB), Chris Parker (WR) and Josh Shapiro (QB).
The event which was free brought together coaches and players who were looking for that edge, and they got it.
“We wanted to host something like this to bring these young men out here to help give them an advantage,” said Mangeiro, who has had decades of teaching and coaching. “Giving these players an opportunity to come out for a free event that was a perfect way to start their summer.”
With several college events coming up throughout June, the event on Saturday helped to prepare these talented prospects for what’s ahead at many of these very competitive camps.
While there were many gifted young players who came to learn and get their names on the map, a few players that were already established came out as well.
Miami Monsignor Pace state-rated defensive lineman Wilnerson Telemaque was certainly one of those gifted players who attended.
The 6-5, 240-pounder has already put his name on the map – with outstanding performances at several combines this off-season.
Telemaque’s interest includes schools such as Charlotte, Akron, FAU, Liberty and Power 5 school Pittsburgh.
In addition to Telemaque, Class of 2025 lineman Michael Dean was also on hand to showcase his many skills. The 6-5, 280-pounder who came to Homestead from Miami High, is already on the lists of college coaches across the country.
Dean is going to be one of Florida’s top 2025 prospects. He is indeed someone to keep an eye on. He also boasts a 3.0 GPA.
Speaking of high-grade point average, the host school also had some gifted youngsters on hand. One of them was Class of 2026 quarterback Robert Kerns.
What this impressive football player brings to the table is skill and athleticism in a 6-0, 175-pound frame. His 4.0 grade point average in the classroom is indeed something to keep an eye on as well.
Kerns is a tremendous prospect on the football field as well as a standout baseball player.

Every year, the numbers are staggering, and it appears that once again, south Florida will be in the spotlight.
While many across Miami-Dade and Broward County boast about the number of football transfers in the two counties, fans across the state – and the nation are blown away at the sheer numbers who come and go.
This year, coaching changes have contributed to the total, but it still has many shaking their collective heads at the comings and goings.
While we attempt to keep track of ALL the transfers because of our extensive database that we have where college coaches are checking in daily, we have missed many who slid under the radar.
In looking over this transfer list, if you see anyone who isn’t there or perhaps at the wrong school, please drop us an E-Mail (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.) so we can make the change. (DO NOT POST)!!! It’s all about getting it right so are young men can be looked at and recruited.
The schools in CAPS are the schools they are attending now!
THANKS TO HIGH SCHOOL PLAYERS, COACHES, SUPPORTERS AND PARENTS FOR SENDING US THESE. COLLEGE COACHES NEED TO KNOW ABOUT EVERY CHANGE – AND THIS HELPS.

We have hit the summer and as prospects from throughout Miami-Dade and Broward Counties head off to camps and 7-on-7 events at colleges and universities throughout the country, several athletes will continue to make headlines.
While the past month gave several football players in this area a chance to establish themselves in front of college coaches, there were others who jumped onto the radar for the first time.
The one thing we know when evaluating talent for colleges to see, they want people who are out in the field attending everything possible. In this day and age, colleges don’t want to know whether a prospect can run, throw, block or tackle. What they rely on recruiting services and “super fans” is things they cannot see from the film.
Being at games, practices and as many camps as possible gives us an advantage, so when a college coach wants to know more than the X’s and O’s, they can find out things like character, leadership and attitude. Those three things can ruin a program – or elevate it, and when they are spending huge money on scholarships on these young men, they have to know everything possible.
Being a talent evaluator in this day and age is really not the art it used to be. Regular fans can see the obvious, but true “scouts” can see those important things that every college program and every business need to know about.
As you will see during the summer, we attend everything, so by the time the season begins, we will have watched just about everyone in south Florida and nearly 4,000 prospects and 250 schools live.
Today, we continue our look at some Miami-Dade and Broward County football players who made an impact this spring.
2025 – Dante Alexander Jr., Athlete, 6-3, 205, Miami Springs. In the world of recruiting and social media, keeping anyone with talent under wraps is no longer possible. There are too many eyes and avenues to get student/athletes in the spotlight. Here is yet another Golden Hawk who had a tremendous sophomore year, but really blew up this spring when college coaches and opponents had the chance to see him perform. From either side of the ball, his ability to make plays and change the outcome of games with just one play became more evident this off-season. Will be a player that you will want to follow this coming season.

2024 – Raynor Andrews, OT, 6-6, 315, Miami Norland. Here is a young man that brings so much to the table as a student/athlete. After playing for Miami Jackson a year ago, he brought his talents to play for the Vikings, and make no mistake, this is someone who really has a chance to be special. Not only is he still a work in progress, but he is a very smart young man, who picks things up quickly and will be a huge asset to a team that many are predicting some huge things from this season.

2026 – Derrek Cooper, RB/Athlete, 6-0, 180, Fort Lauderdale Cardinal Gibbons. We very rarely make boastful comments about high school football players, especially is they are young, but you heard it here first. This is the next potential superstar in south Florida. Size, power, athleticism, versatility, and speed. Did we mention speed! This three-sport athlete can run the ball – with his power, ability to read where the hole will open and enough speed to run away from the defenses and he is just going to be a sophomore. Coaches on the high school team and in the community feel that when this impressive young man blows up, he will be a national recruit.

2025 – Shawn Paschall Jr., RB, 5-8, 175, Deerfield Beach. While this program goes through a transition period, let’s not forget that the Bucks have long been a program that is loaded with talent, and this hidden gem has the opportunity to be very special. Watching him over the past year, there is no doubt that he will showcase some amazing skills this coming season, He is quick, powerful and has tremendous vision. During the Spring Jamboree at Palm Beach Gardens, this is one of those talented young men who turned heads and college coaches finally had the chance to see how special he is. Keep an eye on him this coming season, you will see why many are starting to believe that he is one of the top juniors in south Florida.

Adrian Posse, QB, 6-5, 228, Miami Northwestern. Let’s be honest. Since he left Miami Monsignor Pace two years ago, this was someone who was tough to evaluate and rank. His lack of playing time had many second guessing what they watched his freshman year when he was surrounded by solid football talent and coaching. Last Saturday, during the Bulls’ spring scrimmage – with Teddy Bridgewater and first year head coach Michaelee Harris looking on, this young man was impressive. He made the throws and led the offense in a new system with new teammates around him. Obviously, his size and arm strength have been things that everyone has been watching, but what impressed the most was his accuracy and ability to make decisions. That combination will help to left this offense in 2023.

They have been one of the top public school football programs in Broward County for several years, and while they have district titles and impressive talent to show for their efforts, head coach Adam Ratkevich and his Davie Western Wildcats have not gotten over that hump.
As spring is officially over, attention is being paid to the upcoming season, where many 4A schools are being talked about as programs that have a chance to win it all. Deep in that conversation are the Wildcats who check all the boxes.
Can this program finally get by the gauntlet in south Florida and win a school’s first ever state football title?
While the answer is yes, there are many obstacles that Coach Ratkevich, his coaching staff and gifted team must hurdle this coming season, but things are certainly in place for the program to have its finest hour.
If you have followed us long enough, you already know that very few promote EVERY Miami-Dade and Broward County programs year-round like we have been fortunate to have done for many decades.
With that in mind, colleges coaches from Hawaii to Maine and every in between keep an eye on what we produce.
We have never been in this to sell subscriptions. With that said – and you know what we do and why we are here 365 days a year going to events, practices, camps, combines, and games and NOT sitting behind a computer – we will spend this off-season getting everyone promoted.
For over a half century, we have been honored to help football prospects across the state of Florida get some well-deserved recognition.
Today we bring you a look at a team that starts in the Top 10 in south Florida and are expected to stay in the spotlight – with a challenging schedule that begins at home on August 24th at home against Georgia powerhouse Milton as part of the Broward County Football Showcase.
