If Overtime Elite’s signing of Naasir Cunningham, widely regarded as the top player in 2024, was a smoke signal that there was a new type of player in the high school recruiting world, this week’s signing of eight equally major prospects was the proverbial bullhorn.
OTE reeled off an impressive run of top prospects in the 2023, 2024 and 2025 classes, solidifying its presence in the space.
All eight prospects – Trey Parker, Kanaan Carlyle, ZZ Clark, Bryson Tiller, Jahki Howard, Tyler Bey, Jayden Williams and Jeremy Fears – chose to waive the $100,000 salary in order to maintain their NCAA eligibility, a lane that Cunningham pioneered back when he signed in April.
