Let's start with a few tidbits about inside linebacker Kain Daub of Jacksonville (Fla.) Sandalwood, the No. 38 prospect in the 247composite (he has Alabama and FSU on top, in no order) ?.
1. Daub tells us whenever he's at Florida State, he hangs out with former high school teammate and 2013 FSU early enrollee DeMarcus Walker, a defensive lineman. Those two are pretty close, something that certainly won't hurt the Seminoles.
2. Apparently, the numerous coaching changes in Tallahassee this offseason actually have helped the Seminoles in this particular recruitment because new FSU defensive coordinator Jeremy Pruitt already had a prior relationship with Daub. Daub has known Pruitt since he was a ninth-grader.
3. Asked if there was a sleeper in his recruitment Daub replied, "Oregon." The question is, why? "They've never been by the school, but they're interested in me," Daub said. "They send me mail and stuff. I like their uniforms, they're so far away from home and it's something new." According to Daub, the Ducks haven't offerered. Obviously, he hopes they do.
