Ten other potential freshman stars

Sporting News, The, Feb 18, 2005

Melvin Alaeze, DE, Maryland. A quick, disruptive pass rusher who will give the Terps attitude on defense.

Jon Demps, LB, Florida. The best linebacker from the state of Florida will play early in a depleted unit.

DeMarcus Granger, DT, Oklahoma. Will have an impact similar to Tommie Harris' four years ado.

Jason Gwaltney, RB, West Virginia. The Mountaineers beat out Ohio State and Southern California for a big back who runs like the Trojans' LenDale White.

DeSean Jackson, WR, California. Remember how the Bears' wideouts played-or didn't--in the blowout bowl loss to Texas Tech?

Demetrice Morley, CB, Tennessee. A huge pickup for the Vols, who plucked the nation's best cover corner from Miami's backyard.

Jamario O'Neal, DB, Ohio State. From the same high school as Ted Ginn--and has similar speed.

Jerrell Powe, DT, Mississippi. Powerful run stuffer will be the jewel of recruiting guru Ed Orgeron's impressive first class-if he qualifies academically,

Jonathan Stewart, RB, Oregon. The Ducks are desperate for balance on offense; Stewart's powerful style and breakaway speed are a start.

Patrick Turner, WR, Southern California. Won't redshirt and won't sit long--amazing considering the Trojans' depth at the position.
