One of CIS's favorite series is back! I could have done this earlier, but I was gathering intel, tying up loose ends and things of that nature. I am only going to cover kids that signed with D1 schools, which includes P5 (well, P4 now), Group of 5, FCS and the SWAC/MEAC. SFL has a lot of god**** football talent lol so if I miss any kids, please let me know & they'll be added.

Austin Simmons, Pahokee (6'2" 200) - Originally from Miami Dade. Bounced around all over the place in his prep career, going from Somerset Academy, to Flanagan, to Pahokee, to apparently ending up at Moore Haven briefly. Also apparently played baseball at Doctors Charter & True North. Good arm strength with great accuracy. Nice touch on his deep balls (#pause) Mahomes-esque in that he isn't necessarily a dual threat QB, but can easily make plays on his feet if need be. Legitimate baseball prospect. Originally a 2025 prospect, reclassified to 2023 & signed with Ole Miss last year, I forgot to cover him.



Tyler Aronson, Vero Beach (6'2" 200) - Benjamin School transfer. Arm talent is elite. Ball explodes out of his hand like Enola ***. Throws the ball on a rope. Pure pocket passer. Not very mobile, which hurt his recruitment a bit. Reminds me of Stephen Morris. SMU signee.



Cedrick Bailey, Chaminade Madonna (6'6" 185) - Absolute winner in every sense of the word. 3 straight state titles won. Uber productive with 112 passing TDs and over 8K passing yards in his career. Prototypical QB frame but will need to bulk up in college. Good arm strength & accuracy. 4.4 shuttle. Runs like Tarvaris Jackson. Extremely battle-tested. There are no questions about his competition, as he was playing literally the best competition in the country. Chaminade had Power 4 prospects at literally every position on offense, was it a case of chicken or the egg? Reminds me of James Blackman. NC State signee.



Michael ****inger, Cardinal Gibbons (6'1" 200) - Deerfield Beach transfer. Sat behind UCF QB Dylan Rizk as a junior. Got the keys to the car in 2023 and turned in a great senior yearm with nearly 3K passing yards and 26 passing TDs. Mobile & has a track background. Strong arm with great accuracy. UNC signee.



AJ Hairston, Monarch (6'3" 215) - Broward County Player of the Year in 2022. Also starred on the basketball court & baseball diamond. First player in Monarch's history to record a triple double on the basketball court, and also recorded a 25 point, 25 rebound game. Finished with 8K passing yards and 91 total TDs (77 passing, 14 rushing) in high school career. Great frame, good arm & OK accuracy, however, his throwing mechanics are extremely wonky. Very mobile. Issues can be fixed. Had elite talent in WR corps. Not saying he can be that good, but there are a lot of similarities to Josh Allen. UMass signee.

Alberto Mendoza, Columbus (6'2" 195) - Backed up his brother his first two years, before taking over as a junior & putting up great production. 56 total passing TDs last two seasons of high school. Back to back state champion. Adept at throwing on the run & can scramble as well. Good arm talent. 2022 FL Dairy Farmers Player of the Year. Brother, Fernando, is the starting QB at Cal. Indiana signee.


Davi Belfort, Western (5'10" 185) - Son of MMA legend Vitor Belfort. Went from Cardinal Newman to Gulliver to Dillard to Western. Undersized but has good arm power. Accuracy can go haywire at times. Kyler Murray-esque with his throw on the run ability. Great scrambler that can channel his inner RB & gain yards after contact. Virginia Tech signee.


Adrian Posse, Miami Northwestern (6'4" 225) - Played at Miami Christian as an 8th grader. Started at Monsignor Pace first two years. Transferred to Columbus, lost starting QB battle to Alberto Mendoza, then played at both Edison and Mater Academy as a junior, before finishing at the West as a senior. Was once one of the highest ranked QBs in the country & was an early commit to Auburn, but his hype died down tremendously. Prototypical QB frame. Adequate arm strength but his accuracy leaves a lot to be desired. Not very athletic. You know those ancient Greek statues with the bodybuilders with the baby ****s? That's him in the pocket. Claims 4.9 40 and 4.5 shuttle. UAB signee.


Jadyn Glasser, Venice (6'2" 215) - Played at South Plantation first three years of HS before moving to SWFL as a senior. Led Venice to state title game, where they lost 60-48 against Lakeland. True dual-threat QB with 74 TDs (53 passing, 21 rushing) last two years of high school. Adept at throwing on the move, and has good arm strength. Accuracy can be hit or miss, which he needs to work on. Also lettered in basketball. Central Michigan signee.


JC Evans, Miami Central (6'5" 200) - San Antonio (TX) Brandeis transfer. Very athletic with track & basketball background. Throwing motion reminds me of N'Kosi Perry. Lost Central QB battle and played in spot duty. James Madison signee.
