SCOUTING: Having watched this quality football talent perform since the ninth grade, there was never any question how good he would be once he reached his senior season. This University of Miami commitment is easily one of the most physical and talented defensive linemen in South Florida. His size, strength and ability to make plays has everyone thinking that this is the type of prospect that you win big games and titles with. Whether he lines up at end or in the interior, Ford is the kind of playmaker who changes the outcome of plays - and often times has the final say in games. Athletes like this, with size and quickness, do not come along very often. Ask any teammate, coach or opposing team and all will tell you that if he stays healthy, Ford is a football talent who has the chance to be very special.
