Class prize: Tailback Alex Owah prepped a season on an outstanding Hargrave Military team.
"There are a lot of safeties. With East Carolina the biggest question is, what happens now? They have a new coach. How many of these guys are going to end up sticking, with Alex Owah being probably the big name from this class from Hargrave. I love the wide receivers ... and I think some of the safeties you can easily see on the other side of the ball. ... I think a lot of it is going to depend on what happens with these guys, if they fit in the new scheme that comes in and the changing of the guard."
Miller Safrit, Scout.com analyst
