Was our class even ranked?
I'll say Terrance Henley for a sleeper.. From no hype to eventually being a starter? I think this kid could do it..
Larry Blustein told me that Knowles and Redwine were steals. Henley is an electric athlete but very raw. needs coaching. can be a steal tho down the road.
Going to be a big year for The U!
I think Kendrick Norton is a top quality player!! Many of the guys on the board didnt have a full cycle to loathe over him, since he ws a late pick-up... But, kid has excellent hands (most DT's don't utilize) and feet for a big guy, and can really cause some trouble; if he's allowed to just do his thing (with 1 gap responsibility) in the trenches, and not be limited to playing patty cake (Dorito 2 gap style).
He may need to gain some strength, but he finally represents a movement guy @ DT that we really haven't had since Sapp. I'd start this guy on obvious passing downs right away!!!

most people wanted him as an OL. then again, most people wanted Corn Elder as a RB and golden wanted him as a CB so who knows.
Oh, there'll be a lot of sleepers alright. They'll be sleeping in the team meetings, class, and mindfullness sessions.
pretty sure I read somewhere that Dorito was going to a one gap.
People get way too caught up in the "Star" rankings. If a LB is fast as lightning he gets 4 or 5 stars. Linebackers need to bring physicality and a nasty presence. Gordinier will bring that big time. Look at his film. I think there are like 9-10 kids that don't get up after some of the clips. That is what this defense needs.
Evan Shirreffs. Extremely smart kid, as evidenced by his Ivy League offers. Good size, good arm, and a fully functional brain. PA ability is very good for a high school QB. Really good feet for a QB that's 6'5". He won't beat out Kaaya, but I wouldn't be shocked if he takes the #2 spot very, very soon.
