Do yourself a favor, apply sunscreen before hanging out in this thread. Quite a few sunshine pumpers. Stacked at DE? Well, Bain had a quite impressive freshman campaign and can realistically be projected as above average - All-Conference. Other than that? Mesidor was a revelation 2-3 years ago, but better than average? Hope so, but we'll see. As for the rest, clearly a handful of high-caliber recruits, who all have to prove themselves on Saturdays.
And yeah, there clearly appears to be an attempt to use media outlets to acknowledge guys who might hit the portal - whether desiring to keep them around to develop and fulfill 'potential', or even simply to retain as depth pieces. Probly wise to take a lot of this with a grain of salt. Though the smoke on the Lowes, Poysers and Lucas's of the world seem legit.
