Our Rivals 3* recruits look great

[larrycooke]

From Adam Lane to Rod Johnson and Marquie Hawkins I like their skills. Maybe even Riles can develop to be a plug in the middle.

Hawkins= Ike Hillard This kid can play.

Riles may be the most underrated prospect in the class

Did anyone notice Hawkins dropped a star in rivals.com rankings? 4 * to 3 *, they're not very smart.

I agree, man. Riles and Ivie are the kind of guys we want across the line of scrimmage. If there is a true sleeper in this class, I'd say it's Riles.

I'm really happy with what we have coming in across the line of scrimmage. If you look at our last two hauls, we've gotten unbelievable talent at the position and, more importantly than anything else, these guys blend in perfectly with what Muschamp wants done.

Hawkins will surprise a lot of people

The more we recruit along the lines, then the more competition we can expect. This means we have a deeper and hungrier team than in recent years. Players with heart rise to the top, while others, even those higher rated, might not play as much.

Players that earn a spot and then have to fight to keep their spot is the goal of any football program, and particularly Muschamp's kind of program.

I think Ivie is the sleeper, but I certainly like Riles as well. He has a massive frame and I think he ends up playing 3-tech for us.

[NoahBeanBizzel]

I feel the same way about Ivie, but he's a more highly-rated prospect than Riles on some of these sites. They both are great additions to this defense. If we can hang onto Riles, I don't care if we don't land anybody else across the line of scrimmage. We've got five great prospects.

People talking about sleepers... Hawkins as a 3 * now is a sleeper... And probably one of if not our biggest one..

This is definitely a head-scratcher.

I just don't understand what he has done to drop?

...got me.

Rivals is dominated by Noles. Muschamp has proven to be a great talent evaluator so far. When he goes after a 3 star kid early, you can bet that they're good.

I must admit that this phenomenon appears roughly the same to me.

Of course, every year, every team is thinking exactly the same sort of thing about their 3-star or lower players.

But I do agree that regarding skill sets, athletic ability, performance and possibilities, this appears to be an excellent group of not super highly ranked prospects.
