This evaluation is spot on. Jamari is a Swiss Army knife on offense and defense. Natural leader that will do big things this year @westrebelsfb on both sides of the ball.

🚨Offer Alert 🚨
2027 OL receives his first offer. Gus will help anchor the O-Line at center this year as well as being one of the top long snappers in the state! Excited for him and the work he is putting in to have great senior year.

Our next player had a stellar junior year and clocked several sub 11.00 times running track this spring in the 100m. Big play potential anytime he touches the ball. He is primed to be one of the top WR’s in the Knoxville area in 2026. @SilasMonroe8#RecruitTheRebels 🔵🔴⚪️
I may be wrong but I don’t think these things are only valued by the Gators 🐊. You want to be recruited? Better self check and see if you carry any of these red flags 🚩
New Florida head coach Jon Sumrall has a few major red flags that are complete non-starters for him in recruiting.
Most of them come down to a player’s love for football and their overall character.
This is what he said⬇️

A PARENT’S JOURNEY THROUGH YOUTH SPORTS:
Age 5: “He’s got a cannon.”
Age 6: “He’s the fastest kid out there. Coach said so.”
Age 7: “Rec ball isn’t challenging him anymore.”
Age 8: “We tried out for select. Obviously made it.”
Age 9: “$2,800 for the season. Plus uniforms. Plus tournaments. Plus hotels.”
Age 10: “Cooperstown is basically a family vacation, right?”
Age 11: “He needs a hitting guy. And a pitching guy. And probably a mental performance coach.”
Age 12: “I’m not a crazy sports parent. The OTHER parents are crazy.”
Age 13: “We changed schools. For academics. (And also baseball.)”
Age 14: “Showcases are a requirement at this age.”
Age 15: “Ya his ranking just ticked up. We’re cooking.”
Age 16: “He just needs to get seen by the right school.”
Age 17: “The D1 schools want him to walk on. He’ll earn a spot by sophomore year.”
Age 18: “Okay, D2 is actually really competitive.”
Age 19: “He’s redshirting. Strategic.”
Age 20: “He’s focusing on school now.”
Age 21: “You know what? He’s so much happier.”
Roughly 7% of high schoolers play in college.
About 1.5% of those get drafted.
Less than half of draftees ever play one day in the big leagues.
The odds of our kids going pro are somewhere between “struck by lightning” and “find a $100 in old shorts.”
I love youth sports (all my kids play a bunch of them) just keep a good perspective my friends. ✌️

- Thornburg is a big dude w/ an excellent power profile
(Better bend, lower base agility would increase his stock)

Omygoooooooodnesss!!!!! WHY have i never seen this before?!? What an awesome idea!!!
Can you imagine as a prerequisite all seniors choose a kindergartners to mentor and teach....... teaching the seniors patience and pride, and the kindergartners have someone to look up to ( not in their family)
And when the seniors graduate, the kindergartners will graduate with them (into first grade)
That would be an AWESOME program!
Great showing this weekend at the @KohlsKicking Southern Spring Showcase. Very strong numbers that compare with the top kickers in the nation as an upcoming senior.
