It seems like *any* player signed by any Divison I school ends up on
some kind of list these days...

...Congrats on Doggett -- I hear he is a great prospect with some
pretty awesome speed...

yep... that is true... ranking "specialists" are a many... to name
a few national ones:
- superprep
- prepstart
- max emfinger
- national recruiting advisor

each newspaper has its own version of the state's "top 25" prospects,
and these have little consensus...

doggett is supposed to be a good one... he is expected to qualify
academically... infact all 19 of the pack's recruits are expected to
qualify academically...

the brighest spot for the pack would be getting the linebackers with
size and speed... something the pack lacked desperately in recent years...
