Rivals write up

American Heritage Plantation is a traditional factory for defensive backs, producing top-end talents like NFL stars Pat Surtain Jr., Tyson Campbell and former blue-chips like Alabama's Earl Little Jr., the Brown brothers, Davonte and Damari at Miami, and West Virginia's Jacolby Spells.​

​

In consecutive classes, they have two high-potential prospects who already have ties to the program. Gregory Thomas is a massive cornerback at 6'2," 196-pounds, who has emerged as one of the better players on the backend of the Heritage defense this off-season. He has played well in seven-on-seven settings, including a Miami tournament where he earned an in-person offer.​

​

Aldarius Johnson Jr. is a Miami legacy whose father was a blue-chip signee out of Miami Northwestern in the famed 2008 class. While the elder Johnson was a top 10 wide receiver prospect, his son is a long defensive back who recently moved from his father's former high school home to Broward County.​
