So. Florida's Impact Freshmen: Miami Southwest (FL) 20' RB Andre Stringfield (5-8, 170)
Southwest Miami High School landed perhaps the most talented, dynamic and productive football players in the country for the class of 2020 with the addition of 2015-2016 Pop Warner Division 2 National Champion, Tamiami Colts midgets running back Andre Stringfield.
The incoming freshman is already somewhat of a local celebrity before even stepping foot on the gridiron for his first varsity football game. His recent upload on Twitter (@JerryRecruiting) went viral catching the attention of over 10,000 viewers after squatting a ridiculously 475-pounds.

Stringfield received the highest youth football recognition in So. Florida at the youth football ranks by be selected to the Generation Nexxt First Team All-South Florida. The previous class featured guys such as 4-Stars:
WR - Mark Pope (Miami Southridge)
RB - James Cook (Miami Central)
RB - Nayquan Wright (Miami Carol City)
LB - Diamante Howard (Miami Southridge)
DB - Keontra Smith (Chaminade-Madonna)
just to give you an idea of the rich-talent pool and recognition.
If those names weren't enough to convince you. How about South Florida High School Sports' legend recruiting analyst Larry blustein and National Preps' Director of Florida Scouting Chad Jamison made time out of their busy schedule to witness So. Florida's STARS or TOMORROW.
Last fall, Stringfield was ranked as South Florida's preseason #1 overall prospect for the class of 2020 according to Generation Nexxt scouting team (Jerry Williamson, Joshua Martin, Darrien T. Green). As a seventh-grader, Stringfield was named Generation Nexxt' Crowning of the Champions - Most Dominated Player in Miami Pop Warner.
The youngster is already on the recruiting boards of college football programs: UM, Kentucky, Purdue, Florida and Marshall after personally visiting him this off-season.
Stringfield is also handling business inside of the classroom. He was accepted into Southwest Miami High School - Business and Management Magnet Program.
Jerry Williamson thoughts regarding Andre Stringfield:
"I predict this ninth grader is going make the All-Dade County Team and finished Top 25 in South Florida in rushing yards. Stringfield has All-American written all over him. He's in the same category as last fall incoming freshman Nayquan Wright (Carol City) and James Cook (Miami Central) who was recently awarded a 4-Star by 247sports."
Stringfield may not stand 5-foot-9 or taller or weight 180-pounds at the moment, something both college football coaches and recruiting services fall head over heels for when offering and spotlighting freshman immediately.
Stringfield squats 475-pounds, bench press 315-pounds and power clean 255-pounds if my math is correct, that's an eye-opening 1,045 pounds of pure strength from a 15-year-old incoming freshman and as stated above, he recorded an electronically timed 4.56 40-yard dash during the spring as an eight-grader.
Future Stars Game' Florida Director - Faheem Ali shared his thoughts about Andre Stringfield:
"I think Andre will be a 4 year Varsity Star. I think he will make an impact like FSG Alum James Cook at Miami Central and Kenny McIntosh at University School. By his Sophomore season he will definitely be a 3 star athlete heading to a 4 star." said Ali.
