2016 Dillard (Fla.) defensive tackle Aaron Thompson isn’t a very large name in the South Florida high school spotlight at the moment, but he plans on changing that with this upcoming season.
“Yeah of course, I’m just trying to get out there and I’m gonna try my best this year to prove my name.”
Thompson is working with his team currently with spring football and feels the improvement and leaps the team is making.
“Spring is going great and we just played South Dade in a scrimmage game and we did very good.”
The 6’4 239-pound lineman has already racked up three offers from FIU, FAU and Pittsburgh, However, he is still receiving interest from a number of other schools.
“I’m talking to the University of Miami, Auburn, University of Florida and a whole bunch of other schools.”
The Hurricanes stand out the most to the powerful defensive tackle as he has had a passion for them ever since he was a young child.
“I’ve always the University of Miami since I was a little kid. Ray Lewis and Ed Reed we’re players I liked growing up.”
While the ‘Canes have yet to offer, it wouldn’t be a difficult decision for Thompson if he ever gets one.
“It would mean a lot because it’s my dream school; I would love to go there. If Miami were to offer me I would commit right there.”
The Gators are another school that is showing interest in the Dillard product.
“I went to their camp last year and got to see the school and talk to some of their coaches.”
Thompson is looking to add interest from other schools including Florida State, Alabama and N.C State.
During the summer, Thompson plans to attend camps at the University of Miami as well as Florida State.
