--Pittsburgh (Pa.) Brashear cornerback Therran Coleman looked as if he has added weight to his frame since I last saw him at the Rivals Camp in April. He continues to impress me though with his technique and the fact he has the ability to truly shut down the opposition. Coleman plans to visit West Virginia again later this week and then in July and right now the Mountaineers are in a good spot here.

--I was surprised to see Winston-Salem (N.C.) Mount Tabor wide receiver Divine Deablo workout yesterday but he didn't disappoint as he was a big-bodied wideout that is a long strider. He makes it seem effortless at times but you watch and he pulls away from defensive backs at his size and made some nice catches down the field. The one thing that would stop him at times is being interfered with trying to make the catch.

--Orchard Lake (Mi.) St. Mary's 2017 wide receiver Kahlee Hamler is on the other end of the spectrum as he runs great routes and uses his quickness to get open in the short and intermediate game. I had never seen him play until yesterday but he truly impressed me with his total package. He isn't the biggest wide receiver by any means but knows how to play and it's easy to see how he has 15+ offers already.

--Perhaps no player impressed me as much as Pittsburgh (Pa.) University Prep 2017 athlete Kenny Robinson. The one thing that really stood out to me is that he already is around 6-foot-2, 200-pounds and started the day playing wide receiver. But switched to defense mid-way through the camp and was one of the best defensive backs on the field, recording three straight interceptions and showing he has the skills to play cornerback if needed. Has great ball skills. Yesterday was the first visit to Morgantown for Robinson and after speaking with him I can say it will not be his last.

--Pittsburgh (Pa.) Allderdice athlete James Jackson and Pittsburgh (Pa.) Allderdice athlete Tim Jackson are athletic if I could describe the pair in one word. James spent a lot of time at quarterback but Tim impressed me with his athleticism particularly on some catches during the one-on-one session where he would just out-jump the defenders and made several highlight catches. The one holdup here that I continue to hear is academics but no question the twins can play.

--Scranton (Pa.) Lackawanna C.C. offensive tackle Kendall Calhoun is athletic that is clear, but is a little thin. I watched him during the one-on-one portions at the end and while he was able to win a lot of his reps did lose others. I think he has a lot of potential but he has to be more consistent.
