He is sneaky explosive in transition and starts the break on offense.
Herly Brutus Herly Brutus 6’5″ | SF Umatilla | 2026 State FL may be the breakout star in Florida’s 2026 class. The 6’7 guard pops on film and has undeniable physical traits. He’s a do-it-all player who can rebound, defend, make plays for others, and has an improving scoring game. He can create offense for himself on drives and midrange jumpers.
Jermal Jones Jr Jermal Jones Jr 6’5″ | CG Bell Creek Academy | 2026 State FL is one of the best scorers in the state and is still growing into his body. The 6’5 combo guard will balance scoring and playmaking with the Florida Rebels. This will give him an opportunity to showcase and improve his outside jumper. When he has the ball in his hands, he can get in the paint and share his length and athleticism to help him finish against size. He was able to find his teammates when an extra defender stepped over.
