 | DE | 6-3 / 240 Brazoswood (TX) | Rating:  Pos Rank: 147 | Commit Date: 12/23/09 Committed Over: Baylor, Colorado, Houston, Iowa State, Nebraska | Scouting Report: Big defensive end, he has a great combination of size and strength and he plays with a lot of intensity. Though he is projected as a defensive end, if he gets bigger then he could be a great defensive tackle prospect. Plays with a lot of heart and intensity making him very difficult to block. |

OT | 6-6 / 315 Navasota (TX) | Pos Rank: 51 | Commit Date: 1/22/10 Committed Over: Arkansas, Auburn, Baylor, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Texas A&M | Scouting Report: Huge offensive lineman, he has the type of size you want on the line. Needs to slim down to get quicker. Though he has great size he does not have the quickness needed to compete right now on the upper D1 level. He will need a couple of years to get his body into the proper shape but when he does his upside is great. Once he gets into the pads he destroys the defensive lineman, the quicker defensive ends gives him problems. - Alan Zepeda |

QB | 6-2 / 225 Monticello (AR) | Rating: Pos Rank: 161 | Commit Date: 1/30/10 Committed Over: Arkansas State, Marshall |
|
 | OT | 6-7 / 265 Sulphur Springs (TX) | Pos Rank: 67 | Commit Date: 6/6/09 Committed Over: Houston, Kansas, Northwestern, Oklahoma State, Rice, Vanderbilt | Scouting Report: Tremendous size and build highlight Carpenter. He has a lean frame so even more size can be added in the future. He does have a problem with his exploding out of the blocks on the run, however once he gets going he is effective. He is best on pass plays where his large frame and long arms make getting around him tough. |

 | DE | 6-4 / 246 McDonogh 35 (LA) | Rating: Pos Rank: 177 | Commit Date: 2/3/10 Committed Over: SMU |
|
 | DT | 6-3 / 283 Frankston (TX) | Pos Rank: 64 | Commit Date: 8/2/09 Committed Over: Louisiana Tech, Northwestern State, Stephen F. Austin | Scouting Report: Huge defensive tackle who takes up a lot of space in the middle. He is your classic space-eating defensive tackle. He won't make a lot of plays behind the line of scrimmage but he will clog up the middle and make running the ball tough to do between the guards. Needs to get quicker off the ball and stay low. |
|
 | WR | 6-1 / 181 Cardinal Gibbons (FL) | Pos Rank: 80 | Commit Date: 7/27/09 Committed Over: Auburn, Florida, Miami (Fl), Mississippi, Oregon, Purdue, South Carolina, Wake Forest, West Virginia | Scouting Report: Corker has a big body at 6'1, 185 and he knows how to use it to get open. He is a highly productive player that excels in every technical facet of the game including blocking. He can use his size to his advantage around the goal line. While he has quality acceleration, he lacks the extra gear to just blow past defenders. He should be a weapon working the middle of the field. -Geoff Vogt |
|
 | RB | 5-11 / 180 Clinton (OK) | Pos Rank: 61 | Commit Date: 8/7/09 Committed Over: Arizona, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Oregon, Tulsa | Scouting Report: Griffin is a back that fits in well to a spread offense for his ability to make things happen in the screen game or on draw plays. He gets his feet going and has burst to get past the initial wave of defenders. - Greg Powers, Scout.com |
|
 | CB | 6-0 / 163 O. Perry Walker (LA) | Pos Rank: 106 | Commit Date: 8/12/09 Committed Over: Baylor, Colorado, Kansas State, Nebraska, Southern Miss, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia | Scouting Report: Johnson could play corner or safety depending on his team’s needs. He has good speed and recovers well but will get turned around at times. Maintaining his frame and jamming receivers is something he will need to work on as well as his footwork. Johnson looks a little more comfortable when he’s playing zone as opposed to straight up man. |
|
 | DT | 6-2 / 288 Copiah-Lincoln (MS) | Pos Rank: JC | Commit Date: 12/12/09 | Scouting Report: Langley is a little undersized, but he makes up for his short comings in stature with an explosive first step and tremendous agression. He has very good closing speed once he diagnoses the play. |
|
 | OG | 6-7 / 330 Olive Branch (MS) | Rating: Pos Rank: 103 | Commit Date: 10/28/09 Committed Over: Alabama, Auburn, Memphis, Mississippi, Mississippi State, Tennessee | Scouting Report: Eric is a mammoth offensive line prospect and that has proven to be a good thing. The down side of that is he has been able to experience some success by just being the bigger body in the battle. He is still a very raw prospect who will need some development perhaps the first two to three years of his career. A redshirt year looks to be a sure thing. He really needs to add some upper body strength. |
|
 | S | 6-1 / 185 Stony Point (TX) | Pos Rank: 76 | Commit Date: 7/1/09 Committed Over: Baylor, Missouri, North Texas, Texas A&M, Tulsa, UTEP | Scouting Report: Desmond Martin - Good sized safety, he is athletic and plays with a lot of smarts. Very good speed, he can accelerate and finish off a play like few can. Seems to find himself in the right spot all the time because of good instincts. He is not afraid to mix it up on run coverage or get his uniform dirty. Even when he does make a mistake his speed gets him back in the play. Very decisive player with very little hesitation. - Alan Zepeda |
|
 | CB | 5-9 / 165 Lakeland Senior (FL) | Rating: Pos Rank: 245 | Commit Date: 12/12/09 Committed Over: Florida International, Kansas State, Middle Tennessee, UCF | Scouting Report: McRoy has the speed and quickness, he lacks ideal size and will struggle against more physical wideouts at the line of scrimmage. He has been a consistent player on both sides of the ball and comes from an outstanding program that is use to winning. He is a fiery competitor and has shown a knack for making plays at opportune times. -Geoff Vogt |
|
OT | 6-7 / 290 Alief Elsik (TX) | Rating: Pos Rank: 116 | Commit Date: 7/30/09 Committed Over: Grambling State, Kansas, Mississippi State, UTEP | Scouting Report: Huge offensive lineman, he is strongest against the run. Against the run he winds up and delivers a tremendous blow to the defensive lineman, often times knocking him off balance. He does not have a good first step but is very effective after that. He is a great drive blocker since that allows him to go straight out. He needs a lot of work on pass blocking, his lack of a quick setup with his feet allows defensive ends to run past him. - Alan Zepeda |
|
 | S | 5-11 / 200 David W Carter (TX) | Pos Rank: 61 | Commit Date: 5/15/09 Committed Over: Kansas, Nebraska, UTEP | Scouting Report: A little bit small for a safety prospect, his strength is his athleticism and speed. A bit inconsistent on tackling technique but he gets to a wide range of plays on the field and is not afraid to mix it up. Still on the raw side but has good upside. - Alan Zepeda |
|
 | CB | 6-0 / 180 Carl Albert (OK) | Pos Rank: 52 | Commit Date: 2/1/10 Committed Over: Arizona, Kansas, Kansas State, Louisville, Nebraska, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State, Toledo, Vanderbilt |
|
 | DE | 6-4.5 / 240 Carroll (TX) | Pos Rank: 28 | Commit Date: 4/13/08 Committed Over: Colorado, Kansas State, LSU, UCLA | Scouting Report: Great size for a defensive end, he has the speed to go with it. Has a quick initial burst and gets his hands onto the OL and controls him. Has good body control and uses a variety of moves to get to the ball carrier. Fast for a defensive lineman, he uses his speed to get great pursuit on the backside or to shut the plays down the middle. He is ready to play as a freshman and is the type that could be a four-year starter. - Alan Zepeda |
|
 | DE | 6-3.5 / 275 Navarro (TX) | Pos Rank: JC | Commit Date: 9/14/09 Committed Over: Arkansas, Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, Missouri, Oklahoma State, San Diego State, Southern Miss | Scouting Report: Great size for a defensive end or okay size for a defensive tackle, he is versatile. He is good at making plays in the flanks, he works his way down the line and keeps square to the LOS when the ball is to the outside. His quickness allows him to make plays to the inside as he can usually beat the tackle to the point of attack. Needs some consistency but he is someone who could help out right away. - Alan Zepeda |
|
CB | 6-1 / 170 Central Lafourche (LA) | Rating: Pos Rank: 140 | Commit Date: 5/18/09 Committed Over: Florida International, Mississippi State | Scouting Report: Smith made a lot of plays at Central Lafourche and is a solid cover guy. He has good height but a slender frame that he will need to fill out to play press man at the next level. Works well in zone and can play man but doesn’t transition out of his breaks as well as you would like. He can see routes developing in front of him and won’t take many risks. - Sonny Shipp, Scout.com |
|
 | DE | 6-5 / 255 Butler County (KS) | Pos Rank: JC | Commit Date: 12/18/09 Committed Over: Arkansas, South Florida | Scouting Report: Smith is a long defender and once he gets his body going he can really maker some special plays. His biggest asset is not a speed rush, but he can get after the quarterback when he needs to. He is a smart player that positions himself well to bat down balls at the line. - Greg Powers, Scout.com |
|
 | RB | 5-10 / 185 L G Pinkston (TX) | Pos Rank: 63 | Commit Date: 3/12/09 Committed Over: Kansas State, TCU | Scouting Report: Spikes has great acceleration and once he gets going, he has the speed to separate himself from all defenders trying to catch him. His speed is deceptive and looks like he is moving faster when he is. If defenders takes a high angle, he has the body control to make a move and cut back moving at full speed. If the angle is shallow, he will beat a defender to the end zone. - Alan Zepeda |

CB | 5-9 / 175 Miami Southridge (FL) | Rating: Pos Rank: 273 | Commit Date: 2/1/10 |
|
S | 6-1 / 190 Miami Southridge (FL) | Rating: Pos Rank: 127 | Commit Date: 1/31/10 Committed Over: Central Michigan, Florida, Illinois, Louisville, Marshall, Miami (FL) |
|
 | OLB | 6-1.5 / 210 Samuel Clemens (TX) | Pos Rank: 59 | Commit Date: 3/10/09 Committed Over: Missouri, Rice, Texas, Texas A&M | Scouting Report: Very fast linebacker, he is good side to side and has the instincts to make plays behind the line of scrimmage. Biggest knock is consistency and though he is over six foot, his size is more along safety size. Very good in pass coverage he drops back into coverage like a defensive back. He has a good feel for where the ball is and flies to it full speed. |
|
 | QB | 6-3 / 190 Ryan (TX) | Pos Rank: 7 | Commit Date: 3/8/09 Committed Over: Arizona, Baylor, LSU, Oklahoma, SMU, Texas | Scouting Report: Big-time arm strength. Has the ability to get the ball down field on deep balls. Also can make throws on the run. A pure passing QB who does not scramble or run much. - Ahmard Vital, Scout.com |
