Elite and Underrated: Miami Southridge (Fla.) Senior 2-Star CB/DB Coemba Jones Jr.
Miami Southridge Spartans football program -- is one game away from the 8A finals (highest classification) and has an mind-blowing twenty student-athletes with football subdivision offers (FBS), as well as a stingy defense that's responsible for a total of eight shutouts this fall.
We're talking about top-notch competition and a loaded depth chart and the Spartans have one of the best kept secrets, if you love "football players" and not charts.
The Spartans secondary features five student-athletes with (power five conference) division one offers and has a 5-foot-8, 165lbs playmaker, named Coemba Jones Jr. that's arguably, the most underrated prospect in South Florida.
Coemba, who's a full quailier is one of those players who have been deemed as “undersized” – but he's a four-year varsity starter that's a hard worker, fast and plays bigger than his stature. I remember overhearing a Southeastern Conference (SEC) football coach -- make a statement during spring saying, "only if he was two inches taller." Giving you an example of his athleticism and play-making ability.

He's a division one talent -- trapped in a undersized body to make a long story short. If given a chance, he can make the same plays defensively, just like Maryland's cornerback William Likely (5-7, 175), who also started for "the muck" -- Glades Central High School since his freshman season.
Coemba is locked and loaded as a full qualifier and after announcing this week his test scores, several college football programs has showed immediate interest. Whether he plays FBS, FCS, D2, D3 or NAIA is up to a program, who believes what they "see on film" and not so much so the charts.
I have watched this young man game since youth football and I can personally vouch for his character and leadership. Who ever extends an scholarship to this young man is getting a steal -- of a person and football player as well as a natural born leader.
Coemba plays and start with top-notch talented year around. He's also a three-year captain as well. A recruiting analyst mentioned, if he was 5-foot-10, he would've been a 4-Star recruit with over ten divison one offers. Coemba is also a four-year starter for nationally recognized Florida Fire 7-on-7 football team.
