Yeah, there's a couple guys.

It's harder to find them now because these Power 4 teams scoop these kids up.

When you're Jared Verse at Albany and you flash on tape and all of a sudden you go to sleep as a student at Albany and you wake up as a student at Florida State, that's how that works.

But there are still a couple of those diamonds in the rough.

Caleb Proctor is a defensive tackle from southeast Louisiana who's just under 300 pounds.

He was awesome against LSU when they stepped up in competition.

He had nine sacks.

He's really, really explosive.

He ran under 4'8".

So he's one that I love on the defensive side of the ball.

And then offensively, you'll hear a lot about this guy as we get towards the draft and could end up going on day two when it's all said and done.

But it's Ted Hurst, the receiver from Georgia State.

He's almost 6'4".

He's over 200 pounds.

He ran low 4'4".

He can really go get the ball down the field.

So those are two guys, not at those traditional powerhouses, but two really, really good players.

Well, one of the things that underscores for me is the importance of timelines.

And when you have a head coach coming in year one and you're able to take the quarterback year one in a rebuild, this provides you that luxury to be able to do that, to be patient, get the veteran out there, take your time.

The challenge is how many times have we seen it, and you guys have seen it, where you have a coach and you decide the last second we're going to hang on to him and then we're going to take the quarterback.
