High school football talent is so deep in Southwest Florida that we felt as if The Big 15 didn’t do it justice when it came to showcasing our area’s top prospects with aspirations of playing at the college level.
With that, we’ve made The Next 15, who are 15 football players who were in consideration and discussions of making The Big 15. The requirements for this list are virtually the same as The Big 15 when it comes to projectability and ability at the college level.
Tough decisions had to be made, but here are some of those prospects that just missed the cut but should make college coaches happy if they were to sign.
