Both are decent prospects, but both have certain downside. Hawthorne is very undersized for n outside linebacker; he needs to add bulk to see the field. Smith is tiny, that might even describe it enough. He is fast, but he is pint-sized.

I know some of our three-star recruits have potential to add a fourth star, and I'm confident that some of them will, but I hope Rodriguez finishes this class with some highly rated talent. Craig Roh and Tate Forcier visit this week, both would help add talent.

Martavious Odoms was a 3-star recruit and was pint-sized too, and he's going to be starting today and has gotten rave reviews all month. Besides, it's not Hawthorne is expected to come in and start from day one. He's going to have at least one, probably two years with Barwis before he sees major time on the field.

Smith's a playmaker, pure and simple. He's been a starter for one of the best teams in Florida since his sophomore year, I believe.

As for your second point, there aren't many names left on the recruiting board that aren't highly rated.

Great to see these two pick Michigan from their list of schools. It has to say alot for the Michigan recruiting process and coaches, that guys are coming from SEC country.
