5.5 True Freshman Crack GT's 2 Deep

Here are the true freshman that have Earned a spot on the 2009 GT roster at 1st or 2nd string:

1. Orwin Smith - A-back at 6' 206 lbs. This is amazing considering how stacked GT is at RB. Most all services have rated GT and Oklahoma as having the best RBs in the country so for a true freshman to earn a spot in the 2 deep at this position is breathtaking!
2. Stephen Hill - WR at 6'4" 196 lbs. Here is the man who keeps his word. I expect Stephen to be a starter by game 6 for GT. This player has the talent to be a 1st round draft choice.
3. Izaan Cross - DE at 6'4" 272 lbs. GT is not very deep at DE, quite frankly. So you would think that at least one of the incoming freshman would make the 2 deep. Not to take anything away from Izaan Cross who is currently the leading frosh at this position.
4. Julian Burnett - LB at 5'10" 221 lbs. Julian is tied for 2nd string with BJ Machen (6'1" 233lbs). This young man reminds me of a young Rennie Curran only 1 inch shorter. Because of his being an inch shorter than Rennie his draft potential probably isn't quite as high but this is very impressive considering GT is loaded at the LB position. I mean loaded! Fans in the know are shocked by this development.
5. Jemea Thomas - Rover at 5'10" 178lbs. How can a freshman that only weighs 178lbs make the two deep at rover? I will let Jemea's play answer that for you as the season goes on;)
6. Sean Poole - Punter at 6'1" 161 lbs. 161 lbs? Is that a misprint? He must have an excellent foot because Scott Blair is a good punter as well and would seem like the most likely choice for 2nd string punter. Oh well! Go Mr. Poole.

None of the true freshman have made starter yet, but Stephen Hill looks like the probable candidate to be the first and maybe only.
