ESPN - Don't sleep on these guys - Football Recruiting

The University of Miami is onto athlete Jamal Reid (Mayo, Fla./Lafayette). However, none of the other recruiting powers appear to be pressing. Sorry to let the cat out of the bag, Randy Shannon, but this kid may be one of the best kept secrets in the country.

Perhaps it's because he plays in one of the smaller divisions in the state of Florida, or that he shines more as a total athlete at this point than a positional prospect. Either way, this kid fits into former Pro Bowl wide receiver Cris Carter's mold of "all he does is catch touchdowns." Whether it's as a wide receiver, defensive back or return specialist, Reid is a threat to score every time he touches the ball and is worthy of his 102 national ranking. Although he's not overly explosive, he flashes great top-end speed, is smooth and fluid in all of his movement skills and has some of the better ball skills in this entire class. Reid is a big-time playmaker on any level in our opinion and should continue to see his recruiting stock soar as more people judge his pure talent, not his competition.
