Dream All-American | Born Beast Academy Ambassador

Izaiah Minters is a rising star out of Reno, Nevada, with elite lineage, exceptional production, and a deep understanding of the game. With roots in Compton, CA, and a football pedigree that includes NFL names like Drake Jackson, Kameron Wimbley, and Latario Rachal, Minters brings high-level DNA—and he plays like it. His football IQ, sharpened by his father (a longtime coach), is next-level.

On the field, Izaiah is an explosive two-way athlete. As a wide receiver, he finished his final youth season with 1,000 receiving yards, 1,300 total yards, and 25 touchdowns—a jaw-dropping stat line that led to multiple Top Performer honors, including at the Kingdom 7v7 in Boise and RVC Showcase in Reno. His elite route running, strong hands, and body control make him a nightmare to cover, while his blocking on run plays shows his selfless approach. On defense, he’s just as dangerous—a lockdown corner and rangy free safety with the instincts of a seasoned vet.

A Leadership Award winner at IMG Academy’s Dream All-American Game, Izaiah is more than just talent—he’s a natural leader. With interest from D1 and D2 programs already, he’s clearly on the radar.

🏈 College Coach Evaluation – Early Interest Outlook

Izaiah Minters is a high-upside, coach’s-kid prospect who already shows signs of being college-ready from a mental standpoint. He plays with poise, toughness, and a high motor. On offense, he’s dynamic in space—quick off the line, sharp out of his breaks, and reliable with his hands. He can stretch the field vertically or hurt you underneath with YAC.

Defensively, he’s aggressive and physical at the point of attack with natural ball skills. His ability to play both sides of the ball at a high level makes him a valuable future asset.

The leadership and intangibles are what really stand out. Izaiah commands respect in every huddle, brings energy to every rep, and competes like someone who knows what it takes to reach the next level. Having a father who coaches and a bloodline filled with NFL players clearly plays into his polished instincts and preparation. He’s built for big moments and thrives under pressure.
