Incoming frosh with the best chance of seeing appreciable PT this Fall are:
SBarkley - 4*RB - we need speed and depth and this kid is a big, fast 4 star.
RBates- 4* OL - BWI's Spring issue said this athletic kid with great feet has the best chance of any incoming OLman to see PT this Fall.
MBowen - 4* LB - great athlete, pound for pound possibly the hardest hitter. Look for him to impact STs.
RBuchholz - 4* DE - we need depth at DE and the kid has a shot.
SGonzalez - 3* OL - at 328# has a shot at the depth chart.
JHolland 3* TE - has a shot at PT
SJenkins - 3* OT - at 327#, 6-8, making good progress but everything Ive read so far is he redshirts.
JJohnson - 4* WR - big fast rangy. Dont know how we get him on the field, but has the talent.
DKelly - 4* LB - physical guy who could become a demon on STs.
BPolk - 3* WR - coming in at 5-9, 163# says redshirt but his sub 4.5 speed says a trial on the return teams.
JReid - 4* DB - 5-10, 181 - a "gifted DB" who will be hard to keep off the field in some capacity.
ARobinson - 3* RB - if he stays healthy we will see him in the backfield this season. Broke LeSean McCoy and Ricky Watters school rushing records! Had bone bruise to knee in '14 that cost him 6 games; and still rushed for 1500 yards.
Note: I used the March 2015 BWI Magazine as the basis for much of the above commentary, then added my own comments, as a prep for the preseason, and as a starting point to monitor the freshman class's progress.
