Posted Feb 19, 2010
Davis and his staff made a strong push toward the end of recruiting season.. They also had several highly recruited kids qualify and then enroll for this spring semester. One of those is massive 6-foot-7, 320-pound tackle T.J. Leifheit of Wilmington. The big fellow is one of the top-rated offensive line prospects in the nation, along with fellow tackle James Hurst of Indiana, a 6-7, 305-pounder who is ranked even higher than Leifheit.
