• OG-Coleman McCann-6’3”,270lbs-(Mill Valley) , KS- You can call him Mr. Pancake. Coleman is an in your face type of blocker, agile feet, posts a 3.95 GPA, benches 290, squats 540. I think with proper strength conditioning he could develop into a college star.
•     RB-Joey Rhattigan-6’0”,195lbs- (Neuqua Valley) Naperville, IL- Breaks a ton of tackles, doesn’t have top end speed, but will move the chains and grind it out for a team.

•  ATH-Lexus Walton-5’11”188lbs-(Wolfson) Jacksonville, FL- Intriguing player, swift ball carrier, makes decisive cuts, played QB, RB, and CB on his team. I think receiver is where he may project best to maximize his athletic ability.

• RB-Olito Thompson-5’10”, 190lbs-(Concord), CA- I believe he led the nation in rushing for 11 man football.        Great vision and acceleration, racked up an amazing 408 carries, 3,488, and 34 TD’s rushing. He’s the “diamond in dirt that ain’t been crowned”, yet.
•   -RB-Ray Lewis III-5’9”,186lbs-(Lake Mary Prep) Lake Mary, FL-Absolutely amazing prospect with unlimited potential. -Makes plays that look effortless, very physical, great burst, and jukes.  A total package, who racked up 2300 yards rushing, and 27TD’s to go along with about 90 tcks, 4 sacks, and 9 takeaways.

•         SB/CB-Tyce Miller-  5’9”,175lbs-(Port Allegany), PA- A possession back who kind of reminds me of a Danny Woodhead type of player. Has great vision to find the proper cutback for additional yards. If it’s 3^rddown, he’s your guy.

•  TE-Hunter Henry-6’6”,235lbs-(Pulaski Academy) Littlerock, AR-With his combination of size and athleticism it’s no wonder why his recruiting is heating up. Hunter caught 16 TD’s and his interest is rising, with TE’s becoming more and more apart of offense’s this stud would fit in nicely to just about any program in College Football.
• WR-Victor Gamboa-5’11”,175lbs-(Washington) Tacoma,WA- Victor has all the tools to become a solid D1 product at receiver. He makes an array of different catches(screen, deep fade, slant, out route) which makes him a very valuable commodity in recruiting. Victor collected 56 receptions, for 1098 yards and 12 TD’s. He also does an exceptional job of catching the football with his hands, not the body.
