The wheat is in the bin for the class of 2021 early signing period, and I like what the Kansas State Wildcats managed to bring in under extraordinary circumstances. This defensive class is full of multi-dimensional athletes who could slot in at numerous positions. The defense needed an infusion of speed and received it on Wednesday.
Defensive End
Georgia has been fertile recruiting territory for the defense, and Coach Wyatt headed down to the ATL and pulled out Ozzie Hoffler. This is all about improving the pass rush, because that’s what Hoffler does. He’s explosive off the edge, can make the turn, and puts quarterbacks on the ground. At 6’3, 220, he’ll need to pack on some weight to be a three down player, but in the meantime, he could play early in his career as a situational pass rusher on passing downs.
