Skins have been doing their due diligence this year when scouting, they have been following some small school guys pretty hard. They have been looking at guys like Adrian Hamilton hard, and Ryan Davis. Here is a list of guys that I speak too that have all had interviews with their scouts so far.

They have been scouting Marquette King, Punter of Fort Valley State who had a few huge punts this year, one for 80 against Bethune Cookman who blasted this punt, it was amazing, didn't not bounce, 80 yard missle in the air.

I have had the pleasure to write articles on all the guys that the team has been interested in so far from the small schools and thought I would give you guys a chance to read up on some of the guys, here are the articles I have wrote on all of them

Marquette King, P, Fort Valley State - 60 punts averaging 43.3 yards and the NCAA record for D-2 with an 80 yard missle

Adrian Hamilton, DE, Prairie View A&M - 20.5 sacks led the SWAC and broke Robert Mathis record, true DE in 4-3

Ryan Davis, DE, Bethune- Cookman - Led the MEAC in sacks and was named HBCU MVP for 2.5 sacks at the HBCU Bowl

The greens were very happy to do the article, they knew that they would be going against the grain by transferring to Southern, but it didn't stop them. Jared the son is said to be faster than Darrell

I always like to see our scouts looking at small school guys -- there are some real diamonds in the rough out there.

Not too sure about that QB though. He didn't make grades to receive a scholly from MSU and then got into a bar fight and was thrown in jail. Intelligence and good decision-making are the cornerstones to being a good NFL QB. While I understand there may have been extenuating circumstances, he shouldn't have placed himself in that position in the first place -- that, in and of itself, is a decision right there.

There have been a good number of small school guys make it in the NFL -- after all our best player went to John Carroll.

Faster then the at one time fastest man in the league? That's pretty fast I'd say

You guys have been great on this board, I love the feedback.

Here is a guy you might want to look at. The Skins have not looked at him yet, but they will be at the Battle of Florida
