With more versatile two-way line prospects being produced each and every season, it is now evident that the Sunshine State has those standouts who are finding their way to Power 5 and Group of 5 schools.
In addition, more emphasis is put on the line position year round, giving more attention to the position and paving the way for colleges and universities to head down to uncover the next rising star.
