JC Coleman Oscar Smith HS, VA 10th RB #15 | For the second straight year, JC "King" Coleman dominated at the combine, taking home the Overall MVP, Combine King and Fastest Man awards. Talented beyond belief at 5'5.5 165, Coleman had a 34 inch vertical, 8'10 broad jump, ran a 4.37 shuttle, 4.51 40, bench pressed 155 lbs 18 times and was a man amongst boys during 1 on 1's. I would be disappointed if I didn't see this tremendous talent at a big time program in a few years. | |
Kwontie Moore Norfolk Christian HS, VA 10th LB #84 | A stocky 6'1 242 lb powerhouse, Moore won the LB MVP. Moore had a 27 inch vertical, bench pressed 155 lbs 28 times and was physical during 1 on 1's. | |

Lorenzo Fields Thomas Dale HS, VA 10th CB #29 | Fields 5'8.5 158, was awarded the DB MVP. Fields had a 9'2 broad jump, ran a 4.5 shuttle, 4.60 40. During the 1 on 1's, Fields had good feet, great hips and jammed the WR's during 1 on 1's. | |
Derek Taitano Bayside HS, VA 10th DL #101 | Taitano dominated throughout the event, winning both the DL MVP and Strongest Man awards. The talented 5'11.5 285 lber bench pressed 185 lbs 27 times and overpowered the o-linemen during 1 on 1's. | |
Troy Butler 10th OL #101 | Butler was awarded the OL MVP. A monster of the midway at 6'2 280, Butler bench pressed 185 lbs 25 times and performed at a high level during the individual period. | |

Sequan Gooding Oscar Smith HS, VA 10th WR #50 | Goodwing shared the WR MVP award with Harvell. The 5'11.5 170 lb standout had a 32.5 inch vertical, 8'8 broad jump, was strong and created great separation between himself and the DB's during 1 on 1's. | |
Eric Enderson Phoebus HS, VA 10th QB #25 | Enderson won the QB MVP and Leadership Award. The 6'1 181 lb standout is a hard worker with a good arm and supreme confidence. Enderson has a lot of great qualities. | |

Dallas NUC: Class of 2011 standouts from Barry Every, Rivals.com
March 16, 2010
Dallas NUC: Class of 2011 standouts
MORE: Dallas NUC: Underclassmen standouts | Rivals.com Scouting the Nation 2010
DUNCANVILLE, Texas - Roughly 120 athletes came to compete on Day 2 of the Dallas National Underclassmen Combine on Sunday.
An Oklahoma commit with nothing left to prove left the camp with Overall MVP honors and an underclassmen gunslinger stole the show.
Below is a breakdown of the top prospects as seen by Rivals.com National Recruiting Analyst Barry Every.
ASSETS: Has excellent speed, good change of direction and is very competitive.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Will need to add more muscle mass and strength while working on becoming a more consistent pass catcher.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Ran the fastest 40 of the day at 4.42 while posting a 4.26 shuttle and a 32-inch vertical.
CONCLUSION: Managed to get some playing time this past year in a loaded backfield at Cedar Hill. He will again be sharing carries but should see a bigger workload. Look for him to get looks from C-USA, MAC and WAC teams looking to improve their speed.
ASSETS: Very physical, ultra competitive and instinctual.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: As good as he is on the film and on the field he needs to work on all phases of combine testing. Brothers will most likely end up playing inside so adding at least 25 more pounds is a must.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Did the best job of all linebackers of taking backs off their intended routes and rendering them useless in the passing game. His efforts garnered a share of the LB MVP award.
CONCLUSION: He already has seven offers, and more are likely to come if colleges expect any chances of signing him. Expect Brothers to be a stalwart on special teams and a possible two-year starter.
ASSETS: Possesses very good speed, runs sharp routes and is a sure-handed receiver.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: This future college slot receiver has to gain more weight and improve his overall strength. This will help him combat tight man coverage and withstand the beating receivers take over the middle.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: One of three players on the day that broke a 4.5 in the 40, and he was money catching balls during individual and one-on-ones. Driskell's efforts did not go unnoticed as he grabbed a share of WR MVP honors.
CONCLUSION: His skill set fits perfect into pass-happy offenses like SMU and Houston or any team looking to upgrade their speed at the inside receiver position.
ASSETS: Quick release, above average arm strength and excellent accuracy.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: There is never a guarantee that someone will get taller, so adding size and strength while improving mobility is always an asset for a shorter quarterback.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: It was obvious he had varsity experience because Evans understood the importance of depth in the pocket and making quick and precise reads during the one-on-ones. His overall performance would have won the QB MVP award from the previous day.
CONCLUSION: This is one gunslinger I recommend all colleges keep a close eye on since he still has two more years to hone his passing skills. Even if he does not grow another inch I believe he has the tools to develop into a solid DI prospect.
ASSETS: Tremendously quick feet, good speed, above-average hands and excellent body control.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Adding at least 10 more pounds of muscle mass will allow him to carry the ball a few more times a game.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Green had the quickest feet of any player, regardless of position, in this camp. He was also nearly impossible to cover, making precise cuts that caused linebackers to whiff as they came up to make contact. He was a no brainer for RB MVP.
CONCLUSION: One of many backs that shared carries last season at Cedar Hill (Texas). After seeing his performance on Sunday I have to believe Cedar Hill coach Joey McGuire is going to find ways for Green to get more touches. His skill set makes him the quintessential all-purpose back.
ASSETS: Tremendous overall body structure, very good speed and as strong as they come for his position.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Hook actually plays defensive end, and he really needs as much practice as possible moving in space while covering backs and tight ends.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: His muscular body structure and combine numbers were mind boggling. Hook ran a 4.48 40, 4.38 shuttle, benched 185 pounds 35 times, recorded a vertical of 35.5 inches and had a 10-foot-0 broad jump. He easily took claim as Combine King and Strongest Man.
CONCLUSION: He is receiving interest at this time, but most college coaches are trying to decide if he can make the transition from playing with a hand on the ground to playing in on two legs. Someone will take a chance on him being a downhill inside linebacker based on his testing numbers alone.
ASSETS: Has good arm strength, above-average mobility and nice spin on his passes.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Needs varsity game experience which should help improve his timing with receivers and his confidence.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Showed the arm strength to make all throws during one-on-ones, and did a nice job verbally communicating with his receivers. His efforts did not go unnoticed as he won QB MVP.
CONCLUSION: Needs to hit the camp circuit at colleges still looking for a quarterback. He should be able to get the right help from Heath coach Mickey Moss who recently has sent quarterbacks to Baylor and Houston.
ASSETS: Exceptional hands and body control with much-improved speed.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Needs to continue to run track because it has already made a major difference in his 40 speed.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Has that ability to make plays on balls thought to be uncatchable. Jackson also does a nice job selling routes and coming out of his breaks. He ended up being the easy choice for Overall MVP in this camp.
CONCLUSION: Already committed to Oklahoma and he stated that he was very firm even though Texas A&M and Notre Dame have not given up recruiting him.
ASSETS: Has good overall body structure, is not afraid to mix it up and excellent use of hands.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: He could work on improving the quickness of his pass set.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: Did an excellent job running his feet after initial contact with defenders during the one-on-ones. There was little doubt about his award-winning performance throughout the day among the linemen.
CONCLUSION: Currently has one offer, but that will increase as colleges make their treks through his school during the spring recruiting period. He has the size and talent to play at the BCS level.
ASSETS: Very muscular receiver that runs sharp routes, and possesses above-average hands.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Needs to improve his foot quickness and overall speed which should help him create more separation between himself and defenders.
WHAT WAS MOST IMPRESSIVE: His overall body structure is that of a huge running back which he uses to his advantage while making catches in tight coverage.
CONCLUSION: Currently has a Houston offer, and could gain more recruiting momentum during the spring evaluation period. He is an ideal possession receiver in the spread offense.

NUC Alum-Brandon Pechloff: The Start of a New Beginning-Committed to Western Carolina
Brandon Pechloff: The Start of a New Beginning
By Matt Yanofsky
Brandon Pechloff’s recruiting process didn’t go the way he wanted it to.
The All-State QB wasn’t receiving the kind of offers he expected after passing for 3,199 yards and 43 TD’s this year while leading Montini Catholic to a 5A Illinois State Championship. The 6’5 senior, one of the best QB’s at the Top Prospect Camp, was puzzled as to why many of the players he outperformed signed to play at D-1 schools but yet, he didn’t.
“It was extremely frustrating”, said Pechloff. “I was always told (that if I do) my job on the field they’ll find you. I felt I did my job by (passing for) as many yards as best player in the country and by throwing for more TD’s than most of them. But at the end of the day, I had no offers while (other players) were getting offers by the boatload.”
Pechloff also referred to schools’ lack of interest as “humiliating”.
With a big time scholarship all but out of the picture, Pechloff committed to D-1AA Western Carolina on January 28. Although the Catamounts finished 2-9 last season, Pechloff is excited about the possibility to take over a program looking to get back on track.
“For me its an opportunity to play” “anybody can walk into a powerhouse program and win while putting up big numbers, but it takes a real QB to turn a team into a winner”.
He also cites his success in high school as one of the reasons he is confident as an incoming freshman.
“My high school team was expected to lose most games this year. We had a small team, but our hard work and dedication took us where we were. I think I can (take what I did in high school to help turn around) Western Carolina”.
With his letter of intent signed, Pechloff is now able to look into the future and envision success at the highest level. While he didn’t land a spot at Michigan State or the University of Illinois, Pechloff has little concern that playing for a small school will hurt his chances to make it to the next level.
“I have the size and style to go a long way”, Pechloff said confidently. “I think I can be a Joe Flacco type of QB (at the next level). I am 6’5, 217 at 17 years old and I think I will be 6’7, 245 (when I am done growing). Flacco was the #18 draft pick coming out of a small school and I think if I am good enough, they will find me”.
Pechloff landing at Western Carolina was far from scripted. He was planning to attend a junior college, but was contacted by head coach Dennis Wagner. Wagner, who is heading into his second year as head coach, was shocked to see a player at Pechloff’s level fly so far under the radar.
“We didn’t plan on taking a freshman”, said Wagner, who discovered Pechloff on the Rivals.com database. “But to get somebody of his caliber this late (in recruiting season) was quite impressive”
Wagner, like the NUC, sees the big time potential in Pechloff, but says the pro-style QB will have to work hard and earn his stripes before running the Catamounts offense.
“We have a returning starter (at QB) and a transfer from a UConn, so Brandon will have a chance to learn a lot and become the QB of our future.”
Looks like Western Carolina landed the sleeper of the year; Pechloff sure hopes so.
“It would be great if I won the starting job this year, but I know our incumbent QB is a terrific player and our new backup is solid as well”. “If I don’t get the opportunity this year I will redshirt so I can get the chance to play next year.”
“My goal is to star all four years revenge is the best part of it and all those schools that said I wasn’t good strong or fast enough, I hope to show them who I am. That is the feeling I am waiting for and what drives me daily”.
