Tim Irvin Scouting Report from sportingnews.com
WHAT STANDS OUT
The Make-You-Miss ability. Irvin looks slippery because most defenses slide right off of him. Westminster Christian's resident open-field magician possesses the gift of making would-be tacklers disappear into thin air as he slides by toward paydirt. Some of the disappearing acts he pulls off with five and six defenders within inches of him are nearly impossible to process visually the first time you watch. Irvin also impresses with:
— Physicality: An absoutely fearless tackler, Irvin packs a punch despite his small stature. His athletic timing and ability to deliver the perfect strike make him a devastating tackler in the open field. Irvin won't back down from bigger ballcarriers.
— Spin City: Perhaps the best repetoire of spin and reverse-spin moves seen in a rising star at the prep level in the past two generations. His dizzying array of spin moves frequently bring entire stadiums full of onlookers to their feet. Whether it's a full speed reverse spin off a lunging defender in space, frontspin or a slow top spin dead in space to allow a defender to fly by, Irvin has a knack for making defenders look foolish.
— Breakaway speed: Once he puts his foot in the ground, Irvin is able to accelerate to full speed in one step. Give him an inch and he'll take six points. His turnover and ability to pick'em up and put'em down at full speed after weaving in and out of traffic is devastating to a defense.
WHAT NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
Technique. Irvin's so talented that he's capable of playing nearly anywhere in the offensive or defensive backfield and, of course, in the return game. That's both a blessing and a curse for the coaching staff that has him in 2015. Irvin will need to refine his technical skills in order to harness his raw gifts. Once he settles into a single position, in addition to his kick return duties, watch out becaus he's special with the ball in his hands.
WHAT'S NEXT
The end zone. Michael Irvin's nephew brings a different style to the gridiron than his Hall-Of-Fame uncle, but don't be surprised to see similar bottom lines from their college careers. Tim is smaller and more compact than Michael was at Miami, but he seems capable of being every bit the playmaker that No. 47 was for the Hurricanes in his day. Irvin needs to touch the football to score and should his next head coach should have his head examined if he fails to instruct his OC and special teams coach to get in his capable hands.

WR Lawrence Cager
WHAT STANDS OUT
Physicality: Whereas no single defender can stop him, perhaps a duo of defenders might contain Cager. A physical force of nature, he is too strong for most defenses he saw at the high school level. Tremendous tensile strength in the shoulder cavity and upper arm area are his calling cards. Attempts at any combination of press or man coverage are futile given Cager's top-notch upper body strength and wing-span. He also features:
— Outstanding body control in jump-ball situations.
— Ludicrous leaping ability to go up and procure the ball in tight coverage.
— Awesome awareness of defensive space and softness in zones due to a high football IQ and outstanding coaching at Calvert.
WHAT NEEDS IMPROVEMENT
Technique. Cager's best route-running days are ahead of him. He has tremendous upside and once he masters the technical details of the position, fills out his frame and perfects the playbook, he may develop into the top pro prospect in this WR class.
WHAT'S NEXT
The honors. Should he master the scheme and develop a rapport with his QB quickly, Cager may have the best shot at contending for regular season all conference honors of any 2015 pass catcher. He's so naturally-gifted that even top-flight college defenders will find it a tall task slowing him.

I know right? I saw him at the basketball game Sat with his family. If he has time for basketball he has time to do some cruiting in the state of Florida.

New No. 1 Byron Cowart knows where he's headed to school By Derek Tyson | January 15, 2015 11:51:59 AM PST SEFFNER, Fla. -- The new No. 1-ranked player in the ESPN 300, Byron Cowart, has had twists and turns throughout his recruitment. But with national signing day less than three weeks away the five-star defensive end has narrowed his choices down to three -- Auburn, Florida and Florida State -- and he said he already has a destination in mind.
