    Looking at West Coast Corners, there's a huge drop off from the elite guys to the mid-low 3 stars. Among the 3 star guys, Lake clearly picked Hampton as his favorite. At this point you kinda have to trust Lake's evals, and it looks like he got the developmental DB that he wanted.

    As long as we can get at least one of Gordon/Irvin/Addison this DB class is pretty good. And if we get two of them then this DB class is awesome. Hampton's nothing special though, hopefully his Senior tape shows whatever Lake saw in him at camp.

    We need Gordon for sure, and one of Irvin/Addison/Croswell at safety. Probably Irvin.

    My fingers are crossed for a Byron Murphy type surprise that comes out of nowhere. I think it was mentioned somewhere on the bored that we? were doing better for Taylor-Stuart than most thought. That would be awesome.

    Odds that Lake will be coaching him are???

    And who's to say this kid stays a 3 star. Top corner prospect in Az, has to count for something. Unless Az is a drek this year

    No. 1 Dominique Hampton, Peoria Centennial, 6-2, 185, Sr.
    Freak athlete who had 30 solo tackles and two forced fumbles last season, playing cornerback. He has a strong lineup of finalists from which to choose: Oregon, Colorado, Washington, Arizona and Arizona State. His length, speed and ability to lock down make one of the top cornerback talents in the West.

    AZ generally has only a few more 4/5 stars per year than WA.

    Is it even more? I thought it was about even.
