Getting a kick out of it 12:51 pm ET -- USC commit Andre Heidari and Texas A&M-bound Taylor Bertolet are both punting very well. Not surprising, Tacoi Sumler is a weapon in the kick return game and will likely contribute immediately there at Oregon.

White team D-line thriving
12:48 pm ET -- White defensive line unit looks phenomenal. Antwaun Woods, Jordan Phillips, Xzavier Dickson and Anthony Johnson are all big, athletic, quick and are whipping the offensive line. La'El Collins is hobbling a little. We'll try to figure out if he's dealing with a minor knee or ankle injury.

Irish making plays
12:42 pm ET -- Georgia-bound receiver Justin Scott-Wesley just made a great grab coming back to the ball, scooping it off the turf. Fellow Team White receiver DaVaris Daniels, a Notre Dame commit, has made nice catches and shown good speed. Tight end Ben Koyack, also verballed to Notre Dame, makes a nice grab on a deep pass.

Dickson making moves
12:40 pm ET -- Defensive end Xzavier Dickson just ate up five-star tackle La'El Collins, headed to LSU, in one-on-ones and then threw down another lineman on his next rep. Tennessee linebacker commit A.J. Johnson made a beautiful spin move. Future Arkansas offensive lineman Mitch Smoothers has had a few nice reps.

All-around talent
12:38 pm ET -- Clowney's not all flash. He's very tough and sound versus the run using hands and reach to create separation and squeeze down.

Always working
12:35 pm ET -- Typical Todd Barr: as soon as he gets out of the drill he comes over and starts working on little things. The Cal commit works hard at his game.

Making presence felt
12:30 pm ET -- Jadeveon Clowney's coach Bobby Carroll is really impressed with two linebackers who didn't come to Orlando with the most hype; Oregon pledge Anthony Wallace and future Tar Heel Travis Hughes.

Landry, Grant looking strong
12:28 pm ET -- There have been some dropped balls by Team White receivers. However, in the group, LSU commit Jarvis Landry is making some plays. Also, cornerback Doran Grant, who's down to Ohio State and Michigan State, looks strong in the early going.

Latu giving Wright trouble
12:27 pm ET -- Gabe Wright looked unblockable in the early going. However, he may have finally met his match in Mo Latu.

Bully in the secondary
12:26 pm ET -- Safety Erique Florence is a just a real physical presence. He's beating up on receivers.

Leonard struggling early
12:25 pm ET -- Tight end A.C. Leonard, headed to Florida, has struggled so far with a couple of balls bouncing off his hands. He did just make a nice grab over Robenson Therezie, however.

Running men
12:17 pm ET -- In nine-on-sevens, a run oriented drill, is a chance to look at Mike Bellamy and Brandon Williams running inside and coming downhill. Williams just showed some burst to the outside. Bellamy obviously has plenty of speed and quickness, but will really need to get a lot big and stronger to become a fulltime back.

Gators at work
12:14 pm ET -- Not surprising, but Jeff Driskel looks like the most advanced quarterback here. He's working with future Florida teammate Ja'Juan Story.

Shinn tweaks knee
12:11 pm ET -- Alabama wide receiver commit Marvin Shinn tweaked his knee early and is getting treatment. Cornerback Darius Jennings is out. He suffered a concussion in a previous all-star game and is still experiencing post-concussion symptoms.

Best D-line ever?
12:09 pm ET -- Team White defensive end Steve Miller, a future Buckeye, is showing good bend and speed off the edge. Collectively this looks like as fine of a defensive line group as we've had down here.

Catching on quickly
12:02 p.m. ET -- Devon Blackmon looking smooth at receiver. He was more of a jack-of-all trades in high school. Blackmon, who is expected to pick Oregon, UCLA or USC, looks very good for a kid without a ton of experience at receiver.

Putting zip on it
11:58 a.m. ET -- Quarterback Brett Hundley, a UCLA commit, looks pretty good. Had good zip throwing to Devon Blackmon.

Impressive Fulse 11:53 a.m. ET -- Uncommitted tight end Brandon Fulse is really impressive looking physically, lean but well built and holds his weight well.

Scary D-line 11:49 a.m. ET -- Red defensive line has Gabe Wright, Anthony Chickillo and Jadeveon Clowney looking quick coming off the ball.

Seeing Red 11:48 a.m. ET -- Red team is matching up offense vs. defense to get their alignments and going through some plays. Quarterbacks are taking some snaps.

Don't forget to stretch
11: 40 a.m. ET -- Players are now going through a dynamic stretch, a real energetic warm-up to get loose. Some of these players haven't strapped on the pads in a couple of months. Overall, this group looks a little leaner, more athletic than in past years.

Phillips looking good
11: 35 a.m. ET -- Jordan Phillips (Towanda, Kan./Circle), whose headed to Oklahoma, is one of the most surprisingly good looking physical specimens.

Tiger on the prowl
11:32 a.m. ET -- LSU-bound Anthony Johnson (New Orleans, La./O. Perry Walker) looks the part of a five-star prospect. Very vocal, showing that he's out here to prove something.

Not clowning around
11:30 a.m. ET -- Jadeveon Clowney (Rock Hill, S.C./South Pointe) looks really lean for 250 pounds. He has the frame to add a ton of weight.

No ND targets.

Quan Bray
Devon Blackmon
Jabari Gorman
Marcus Jackson
Greg Townsend Jr
Robenson Therezie

USC is in the mix for a few of these players. My guess on all of them

Quan Bray- Georgia
Devon Blackmon- USC/Oregon
Jabari Gorman- Florida
Marcus Jackson- Tennessee/Miami
Greg Townsend Jr- USC
Robenson Therezie- Auburn/Florida

There are a few more scheduled and there are always some suprises when kids feel in the moment and let the cat out of the bag.

Savon looks good. Solid hands out of the backfield and quick through the line of scrimmage.

Karlos Williams would have gotten flagged in the NFL with that hit

Side note:

FSU's defensive backfield in the next 2-3 years= SICK NASTY!

Jabari Gorman decides to stay in state and head to Florida with Muschamp and his defense.

This guy sounded like the biggest moron on the face of the earth. I'm surprised he's going to get accepted to go to college.

He did go to Alabama. Not the worlds greatest school. BTW Jabari Gorman to FL. Did they get the most illiterate people possible to announce here.

Chickillo is faster than I expected. Good athlete

Also, Max Wittek is very accurate. Lane can coach qbs so he may be a good one at the next level.
