'07 FL WR Leonard Hankerson (Miami-FL signee)

great work by Coach Shannon...Leonard was the one player I thought was ranked way too low by both recruiting services. If he has the grades (have no idea what his situation is), stays healthy and has a QB to get him the ball, I think Leonard could be special.

Word is that he still needs some work to get qualified... But he is a natural talent, that's for sure... Solid pick-up...

Eye on the U | Day 1: Hankerson not cleared

Just got back from the first day of practice at The U and had a few quick tidbits I wanted to pass along.

The biggest news coming out of camp today is that freshman receiver Leonard Hankerson has still not been cleared by the NCAA Clearinghouse to play. The St. Thomas Aquinas standout was in shorts and a t-shirt Saturday morning and watched his teammates sweat, puke and gag for air in the hot early morning sun at Greentree Practice Field.

Coach Randy Shannon said Hankerson, who attended summer school, could be cleared to play soon. Aside from Jermaine McKenzie, Hankerson has really been the only other new receiver to get rave reviews during 7-on-7 drills this summer. McKenzie, who was involved in that scary car accident and will be wearing a brace until mid-October, was out at practice with quarterback Robert Marve. They were playing catch. Beat writer Susan Miller Degnan said she spotted Marve doing one-handed push-ups.

Miami freshmen Leonard Hankerson and Adewale Ojomo were cleared Monday by the NCAA Clearinghouse, meaning all 19 of the Hurricanes' incoming recruits this fall have qualified academically.

The duo was to begin practice Tuesday, after missing Miami's first three sessions of fall camp. Hankerson is a wide receiver and Ojomo is a defensive end.
