Per 247, the St. Johns County product is the highest rated center prospect coming out of the state of Florida during this recruiting cycle and ranked as the 16th best in the nation.
Helping BT to a Class 7A state championship game appearance, Cecil carved the paths for a prolific Bears offense where both four-star quarterback and Auburn signee Joey Gatewood and three-star running back Devin Ellison ran for 1,100+ yards on the ground.

Cecil becomes just the second offensive lineman to sign early with USF after three-star Hollywood Chaminade Madonna guard Sebastian Sainterling.
