1. Who’s ready to compete?

To me, one of the most interesting storylines each year is looking at which signees are ready to compete as freshmen.

Right now, here’s my list:

  • DB Andrew Booth
  • WR Frank Ladson
  • WR Joe Ngata
  • DB Sheridan Jones
  • LB Vonta Bentley
  • LB Bryton Constantin
  • DB Joseph Charleston
  • DT Tyler Davis
  • LB Kane Patterson
  • RB Chez Mellusi
  • TE Jaelyn Lay
  • OG Hunter Rayburn

That’s quite the list of names. I think a lot of these guys will have the opportunity to come in and compete for playing time as freshmen.

5-star Frank Ladson an elite downfield threat. dark. Next

This a very talented group and it’s going to be fun watching them grow up together over these next few years.
