4-star wideout Ahmari Borden commits to Stanford

Quincy (Fla.) Robert F. Munroe Day School wide receiver Ahmari Borden has committed to Stanford, announcing the news Saturday on social media.

“First off, I want to thank God for all of the countless blessings and the many opportunities that only he could have presented. Next, I want to thank my family for molding and pushing me to excellence. They have been my biggest support system and have always pushed me to be the best that I can be; not only in sports, but in Life. I love you all and thank you for being my back bone through the many trials and tribulations. Furthermore, I want to thank all of my mentors, coaches, trainers, and peers for pushing my limitations and helping me strive to seek better
knowledge and understanding of the world around me. Lastly, I want to thank each and every school that has offered, recruited, or reached out to me, but as you know I can only choose one,” Borden said.

Borden is the No. 314 overall recruit in the 2023 cycle, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. He is ranked slighly higher in the 2023 On300 ranking at No. 287.

He currently has an On3 NIL Valuation of $12.5k. The On3 NIL Valuation is an index that looks to set the standard market value for both high school and college-level athletes. The NIL valuation does not act as a tracker of the value of NIL deals an athlete has completed to date. It rather signifies an athlete’s value at a certain moment in time.

He is the third commit in the 2023 class for the Cardinal after Haslet (Texas) Eaton four-star tight end Jaden Platt and Murrieta (Calif.) Murrieta Valley three-star wide receiver Tiger Bachmeier.
