When it comes to recruiting prospects, colleges and universities across the country never stop evaluating and watching football talent in every class.
Many years ago, when the football season came to an end, recruiting was put on hold until spring. No longer.
Recruiting all classes 365 days a year is the landscape we are living in these days.
As the current senior class is certainly in the spotlight, juniors (2026), sophomores (2027) and freshmen are getting plenty of attention as college coaches build their database in this competitive world of trying to bring athletes onto their campus.
As we get the opportunity to see so many football players live, it gives us a huge advantage of seeing some of the best current and future talents, playing in some key games against quality talent that Miami-Dade and Broward Counties have long produced.
Today, we look at five local prospects who are turning heads and grabbing attention from fans, high school coaches, recruiting services and colleges from all over the nation.
2025 – Roderick “R.J.” Boynton, OLB/SS, 5-10, 185, Miami Gulliver Prep. When watching this talented prospect play, the first thing you notice is his ability to make plays. Among the state’s leaders in tackles, here is a gifted student/athlete that continues to keep the Raiders in games with his ability to contain the running games as well as the passing attack – from either the secondary or as an outside linebacker. In addition to his play on the football field, his 3.4 grade point average in the classroom is also quite impressive for college coaches who continue to watch his progress.

2025 – Adrian Farrow, DL, 6-4, 250, Miami Norland. While so many prospects continue to receive attention for the play on the defensive line, this may be the true heart and soul for a Vikings’ defense that is one of the best in Florida. He is quick off the ball and creates mismatches up front against any offensive line like he has for the past two years. An FAU commitment, this is a difference maker that also gets it done in the classroom (3.0 GPA), adding to what he brings to the table. Continue to keep an eye on this big-time player!

2027 – Anthony Jennings III, WR/Athlete, 6-0, 165, Fort Lauderdale Dillard. From the time he stepped on the field a year ago during his freshman season there was no doubt that this was a special prospect. He is skilled and instinctive as a football player who combines his many talents with 10.8 (100 meters) speed. Whether as a receiver or a kick returner, he is someone you need to continue to watch as one of the top prospects in his class.

2027 – Nicholas Lennear, WR/Athlete, 5-10, 165, Miami Northwestern. Fron youth football straight to the varsity level, here is one of the top prospects in the nation. His ability to make big time catches against elite defensive backs has some of the top programs watching his progress every game. He is not only a game-breaking receiver, but as a kick returner Lennear has shown that he can turn a game around in an instant. One of the major talents in this country.

2026 – Omari McNeal, QB, 6-0, 155, Pompano Beach Blanche Ely. Make no mistake here is a major talent in the junior class. Someone who is already considered as one of Florida’s fast rising talents who just doesn’t get it done at camps and combines in a T-shirt and shorts, but his play in important game conditions has drawn praise from opponents and college coaches who continue to watch him raise the bar. He is indeed a catalyst who has helped the Tigers remain in the mix for post-season play. His work in the classroom is also an enhancement during the recruiting process.
