as far as spring ball goes....lot of insider spring hype on defense for Mike Dwumfor (DT), Donovan Jeter (DE/DT), and Ambry Thomas (CB). Thomas and Jeter were pretty highly rated recruits, not that surprised to hear the hype on those guys. Thomas played a little bit as a true frosh, Jeter was on track to play but redshirted bc of an injury. Dwumfor's name though has been a pleasant surprise. They'll need an interior DT to step up with Hurst gone.
On offense the 3 names that keep popping up are Tarik Black, Cesar Ruiz, and Shea Patterson. Word is Black is back and better than he was a frosh, Ruiz has performed like the best OL on the entire squad, and Patterson is way ahead of the other QB's. Only thing that would stop him from getting the starting nod is the NCAA.
