The best thing you can do is watch his film... try to find a copy of the Army All-American game and see if you feel differently about the possibility of him getting serious PT as a true freshman.

I did watch the Army All-American game and he looked good against other high-school athletes. So did Xavier Carter when he played, so did Brian Toal, DeSuan Jackson, Patrick Turner, and many other guys who didn't start as freshman. Hell, Clausen won the MVP on year, even though Mallet outplayed him, that doesn't make him great.

you can't compare those two to patrick johnson, they're nowhere near the same caliber recruit. many people consider patrick johnson to be the best cornerback prospect of the modern recruiting era.

Were you not around when Darryl Johnson was being recruited? People said he was going to be better than Sean Taylor. Also, Luke Sanders was going to be better than Brady James. It's all projections and you're entitled to your opinion. Just don't state it as fact and let it play out.
