Still In the Mix:

CLASS FULL

Immediate Impact Player:

Todd Thomas, WR- Size, strength and athleticism will help Thomas step in and contribute to a potentially potent offense, but versatility might serve as the catalyst for an impact year, as Thomas is as much a threat down-field as he is in the backfield.

Future Star:

Mark Myers, QB- All the necessary attributes of a pro-style quarterback are in Myers' repertoire. As he learns the system and develops, his arm and field wherewithal will pose a great challenge for opposing defenses.

Under The Radar:

Khaynin Mosley-Smith, DT-Weighing in at a powerful 275 pounds, Mosley-Smith runs a 4.9-40, potentially providing just the kind of power and speed for an effective and challenging defensive tackle.

Who's Missing:

No one. Clemmings and Givens explored plenty of other options, but both seem set. The Panthers expect to hang on to their entire class.

Two-Deep Potential:

T.J. Clemmings, DE

Aaron Donald, DT
Saheed Imoru
Khaynin Mosley-Smith, DT
Todd Thomas, WR

Mike Thornton, DT, Stone Mountain, GA - Considering Penn State, Georgia, Ga Tech, Kentucky, Miami & USC

Immediate Impact Player:

Miles Dieffenbach, OL-Versatility at the guard or center position could bode well for the Pittsburgh native as he prepares to crack the Nittany Lions' starting roster.

Future Star:

Paul Jones, QB-With most of the pro-style quarterback attributes in tact, when Jones develops his out-of-pocket abilities, he'll celebrate success with a delighted Beaver Stadium crowd.

Under The Radar:

Kevin Haplea, TE-Built to play any position and has the speed of a kick returner. With some development, could figure to turn heads.

Who's Missing:

Adrian Coxson, WR - The Baltimore product with excellent size made an early commitment to the Nittany Lions, but changed his mind. Now Texas and Georgia are on a short list that also includes WVU and Maryland.

Two-Deep Potential:

Khaliri Fortt, LB
Mike Hull, LB
Alex Kenney, WR
Dakota Royer, DE/LB

Under The Radar:

John Propst, LB-The talent and on-field experience will be a work in progress, but the 3.8 GPA might help expedite the process.

Who's Missing:

Travis Bell, DB; Braylon Heard, RB; Darius Millines, WR; Fred Pickett, WR; Davion Rogers, LB - Old coaches are haunting the Mountaineers as newly hired Marshall coach Doc Holliday took three WVU commits from Florida-Bell, Millines and Pickett-with him to Marshall.
