I wouldn't expect him to pick up things like Cantwell, who was rated by some as the #1 player in the country.

Yes but Hawks has been playing i would say slightly higher level competition being at Juco. Which is also where Bell was and he started games first season after Rivers went down.

So i wouldnt be shocked if we start hearing that they are comfortable putting him in there if necessary by say midseason, maybe sooner, since our schedule is not very tough to start out.

Remember when Rick was hired, and on his first day, when he saw all the players, he literally asked, “where are all the big guys?”

We were all wearing orange and green glasses for too long and thinking we were “just a few more players away”.
The size, speed and athleticism difference was so obvious against Clemson in 2015. It was over from the first play and obvious just by looking at them line it up. It was a glaring size difference.

I’m not expecting much from him right away but it is a nice redshirt candidate and to see where he falls in line through his first year here.

The Canes landed one of the biggest OL in America with the commitment of Topeka, Kansas native Jacob Hawks.

Hawks has drawn comparisons to Markel Bell, and it's easy to see why- he's 6'9 3/4, 338 pounds with an 83.5-inch wingspan, 35-inch arms and 10-inch hands. Like Bell, Hakws went to JUCO for further development despite being a full qualifier out of high school. He started at Left Tackle as a freshman for the Hutchinson CC Blue Dragons, who went 11-1 and finished as national JUCO runner ups. Hutchinson is an NFL factory that has sent 47 players to the pros, including Alvin Kamara and Cordarelle Patterson.



Hawks will enroll this summer and has four years to play three. His enrollment and the return of Joel Ervin (who missed spring with an injury) will infuse even more elite size to Coach Mirabal's offensive line room.

I didn't even notice this until just now! Wow! This was most unexpected and from my perspective this came from right out of the blue! Talk about a pleasant surprise? More quality depth at Tackle and a potential starter either this season or down the road. Fantastic pickup!
