Center, not rated by Scout, or even listed by ESPN.  But, a Center with decent size.

Wow, either Coach T and crew really know their way around FL recruiting now and are grabbing diamonds in the rough...or things are going rough. Hoping to see these young men have break out seasons.

@SleeperAthletes: Congrats to #USF for nabbing one of my #SpringSleepers! #Flanagan HS (FL) OL Cameron Campbell (@Cameron64_) @CoachTaggart @CoachMathies

Described as a "diamond in the rough" by the University of South Florida's offensive coordinator and offensive line coach, Paul Wulff, Cameron Campbell garnered his initial BCS scholarship offer from the Bulls on Wednesday night and wasted no time pulling the trigger to become the latest addition to Willie Taggart's 2015 recruiting haul.

"I was up at USF for a camp last weekend and I like the direction that the program is heading in," Campbell said. "The coaching staff is great and even better, USF's in-state and not too far from my family, so they can come watch my games."

The 6-foot-3, 270-pound Flanagan standout is a well-rounded offensive lineman with the athletic ability to pull out and pick up assignments out on the edge. But at the same time, Campbell possesses that physical, hard-nosed brand of football that will fit perfectly into Paul Wulff's trenches.

"I'm being recruited as a center," Campbell said. "I like to think of myself as an athletic offensive linemen, not the typical, sloppy linemen. I would say pass blocking is a strength of mine, even though I enjoy the contact of run blocking.

"I've mostly been talking to coach Wulff, but I plan on speaking with another one of the coaches who is recruiting my area tonight. Coach Wulff consistently says he sees something in me and sees a lot of potential. He said I'm a diamond in the rough, but the bond (between us) is growing quickly."

Campbell is Willie Taggart's sixth verbal commitment of the 2015 recruiting class, and the initial offensive lineman to take his talents to Tampa Bay.

Howard University also chipped in with a scholarship offer for the rising senior, while Florida International and Alcorn State were in the process of evaluating him and expressed interest.

Well they are certainly blazing their own path... can't say it doesn't make me nervous but gotta trust the coaches. Welcome aboard Cameron.

Bender updated his report...7th.  We beat out Howard!  Stole him before Alcorn St & FIU could snag him.

 

Kidding...it's early, and there is plenty of talent out there overlooked by the bigger schools chasing the bigger names.  Hoping these guys pan out.

He's quick for a lineman which I'm sure is useful but he'll probably need to strengthen up a lot. He finishes his assignments in his hudl tape and he looks pretty good in open space blocking. You could stick em outside at te if he doesn't develop in a couple of years.

I think CWT overestimated his early success last year and wound up with extra slots left in that class. This year he is filling some slots of need early with "sleepers". Our roster has 1 true Center, Reiter. One of our LS behind him weighs #165. A Wisky lineman might pick him up and throw him at the K. I see us looking for a JUCO C as well.

 

Plenty of time and room left for some blue chip guys who pull the trigger later. It's still Early.
