Hollywood, FL– As college recruiting staffers officially open up full communication with rising junior prospects, Football Hotbed will spotlight a few 2025 class athletes who need to be added to the recruiting boards of division one programs nationwide.  Treasure Coast (FL) High School athlete Gabriel Avin is one such prospect.

Avin is a two-way player who we think has a future at the defensive back position at the next level.  He’s a legit 6-feet, two inches guy who has good size at 195 pounds and length to match.  Playing this off-season with a national semi-final finishing Team Reign 7v7 team out of South Florida, Avin helped his team to a top 4 finish at the Shock Doctor-sponsored “Legends Showcase National 7v7 Tournament” in Tampa this past April.  He’ll take the momentum of a great off-season into this fall 2023 season at Port St. Lucie County Treasure Coast High, playing for head coach Irvin Jones. 

Treasure Coast has been the home of much success on the field and several division-one prospects lately.  Most notably Eden James, the son of Hall of Fame running back Edgerrin James.  The younger James plays for FCS Howard University, an HBCU in our nation’s capital.  We believe Avin has division one potential also.  Here’s the tail of the tape:

GABRIEL AVIN – 6’2, 195, Junior DB

Scouting report: A prospect who continues to develop. A physical defender with a good strike and possesses good size for the college level.  Shows range and length and hips that allow him to move.  Good hands at wideout but plays in a run-first offense, camp workouts at WR do prove he has the ability.  Best days on defense in the future because of size and length.  Will continue to grow in coverage and very good in run stoppage.  Could potentially play outside linebacker in college. Has the size already.

UCF Falls Short at Home vs. BYU

Follow Orlando- The UCF Knights unfortunately fell short in their quest for an upset victory at home against the Big 12 conference-leading Brigham Young Cougars this past Saturday, with a final score of 37-24. Despite their best efforts and a strong performance throughout the game, the Knights were unable to secure the win they were hoping for in front of their home crowd. The team displayed resilience and determination, but ultimately, it was not enough to overcome their formidable opponents.Starting quarterback Jaccuri Brown, the Miami transfer, was ineffective in his first start, throwing two interceptions before he was benched for former Football Hotbed National Middle School Invitational Showcase finalist, Dylan Rizk. The freshman quarterback came in during the fourth quarter and went 6 for 10 for 102 yards passing and tossed a touchdown.  RJ Harvey rushed for 127 yards on 16 carries but it wasn’t enough for the Knights to overcome BYU’s offense led by quarterback Jake Retzlaff was too much for the Knights.  Retzlaff finished the game 16 for 24 with 228 yards passing and two touchdowns and added 38 yards on the ground and a score. Next up, UCF hosts Arizona at home.  The Bearcats lost to West Virginia 31-26 earlier today.  #gallery-1 { margin: auto; } #gallery-1 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-1 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-1 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */
