High school players I’m going to group by position grouping to include all players.
First group is QB
This class needed a QB and Coach Freeze went out and got a flip from a kid he had committed to Liberty. Hank Brown is from the Nashville area and had great QB coaching at the high school level. So fundamentally he’s extremely skilled. From an athletic point of view he’s lower half of P5 talented QBs. Brown has an above average arm strength but has clean technique therefore as his body matures into a college player his talent level could increase. Brown will be a spot holder until his redshirt sophomore season unless an emergency happens. I expect more talented QBs to be signed in the future but sometime the slow and steady is the best for a team (a la Stetson Bennett). At Best a potential starter and at worst a depth piece. Players like this need to find ways to be important to the team. Like working as a holder for place kicking. Working with backup WRs on their weaknesses. Examples are they struggle with short routes with fast balls. Or work on contested receptions. Hank needs to make himself available to work on those with players.
No other QBs added at this time however there is a expectation to add a transfer QB in the future if possible

Running back
Jeremiah Cobb is a top 10 high school running back. Cobb chose AU over UGA and yet to sign his LOI. However he is expected to sign with his teammates at a ceremony in Feb.
Cobb hit a homerun personally with the coaching change. freeze’s scheme fits Cobb’s game much better than he would have Harsin. Cobb is a do it all type running back. He’s good at a lot of things that makes a good back. He has decent vision, very good speed, tackle breaking ability will have to be seen at the college level but he did break many in high school. He also has some wiggle and cut back moves. For a team that needed a freshman running back that you aren’t expecting to give it to them 20 times a game as a freshman Cobb might be the best back available. Most of the backs ranked higher than Jeremiah have more mature bodies. 2 years in the system and Cobb should be ready for the RB1 spot. This was a big win on the recruiting trail.
