GAINESVILLE, Fla. — Shooters shoot, and the Florida Gators student section took their shot on Saturday night. Current Ohio State commit and the No. 1-ranked prospect overall, receiver Jeremiah Smith was in attendance for the Gators’ game against Charlotte and the students rolled out the welcome mat, or welcome sign.

A large grey canvas with “Jeremiah 2 the Swamp” was unfurled in the student section, not far from the south end zone where Smith and his father were seated.

Smith wasn’t the only talented prospect in attendance on Saturday night. The Gators had a solid visitors list for their matchup with Charlotte.

Scouting Report on Jeremiah Smith

One of the more talented and well-rounded receiver prospects in recent cycles. The highest-rated wide receiver prospect from Florida in well over a decade.

A big, skilled receiver with fluidity and savvy for the position. Measured in at 6-foot-3 and around 200 pounds with a 32.5-inch arm prior to his senior season. Had a breakout junior season, catching 58 passes for 1,073 yards and 20 touchdowns while leading Chaminade-Madonna to a state title.

A very polished route-runner at this stage with rare ability to change directions at his size. Smooth mover with technical refinement that allows for separation. Regularly stacks cornerbacks off the line.

Pairs his route-running ability with advanced ball skills. Has strong hands and comes down with catches in traffic. A high-level ball tracker with the ability to locate the football over his shoulder. Capable of making fantastic one-handed grabs. Also flashes ability after the catch. Has the size to run through contact and a long stride to pull away in the open field.

Also a strong track athlete winning state titles in the 110 meter and 400 meter hurdles as a junior.

An extremely well-rounded prospect with a high floor and ceiling. Looks like a prototypical X wide receiver prospect with considerable traits and skills that point to an upside as a high draft pick.
