Miami freshman defensive lineman Donta Simpson was named to On3’s 2025 Preseason True Freshman All-American Team on Tuesday. On3 highlighted Simpson’s late-senior surge at Chaminade-Madonna and projected him among the nation’s most college-ready first-years.
"Last season saw Miami develop an underrated local prospect into a True Freshman All-American, in cornerback OJ Frederique. The Hurricanes could do the same this year with defensive lineman Donta Simpson. The South Florida native turned in a strong senior season at local powerhouse Chaminade-Madonna and could factor into Miami’s defensive line rotation this fall."
Listed at 6-foot-3, the true freshman stayed home after starring at Chaminade-Madonna, where he helped deliver a state title run.
