Gilman (Baltimore, Md.) defensive end Mattheus Carroll said in mid-May that Duke, Maryland and Virginia Tech were pressing the hardest for his services, and on May 25 the three-star edge rusher officially named those programs his finalists.

Khyree Jackson (East Mississippi/Scooba, Miss.) is one of the top junior-college prospects and cornerback recruits in the 2021 class, claiming more than 20 offers to his name.

Roman Hemby (John Carroll/Bel Air, Md.) is one of the top running backs in Maryland, and claims 20 offers to his name.

The Terps have had an offer out to running back/safety Sieh Bangura (DeMatha/Hyattsville, Md.) for more than a year.

Mike Myslinski (Bishop Kenny/Jacksonville, Fla.) is one of the top center prospects in the 2021 class and claims close to double digit power-five suitors.

St. Frances (Baltimore, Md.) three-star guard Xavier Castillo has a number of attractive offers on the table, but the 6-foot-5, 325-pounder said three schools in particular are pressing the hardest for him.

Flowers (Springdale, Md.) defensive tackle Tommy Akingbesote has a top seven leaderboard, but he said one school has separated itself from the pack.
