I believe Hummel was higher rated than many of the recent LB recruits (other than Vance obviously).I don't know if Hummel will be great or a bust. I do know he looked fast on the football field and that was verified on the track. I also know he is bigger than the tiny more highly rated recruits we have brought in at linebacker and those guys have done nothing yet.
I am excited about him and Vance. Both are bigger as they should be. I don't care who else recruited either one.
Find me backers that are over 5' 10 and 200. I've seen enough of those guys for a lifetime.
