Agreed. But I guess I didn't include lattimore because I look at him more as a WR, but in essence he's the same position. Good call

He is one of the elite all-purpose backs in the class of 2014.
In 2012, he had 181 rushes for 1,742 yards and 34 touchdowns. In 2011, he had 1807 yards and 22 touchdowns.

HAVELOCK ? Havelock?s Derrell Scott gets noticed at football camps across the country the way a young child receives lollipops from the doctor ? basically every time he goes.
Last week, Scott got something in the mail that he has worked hard for and has anticipated for some time.
He received an invite to 2013?s Nike-sponsored The Opening, the premier football camp in the nation. Located in Beaverton, Ore., it features the country?s top 150 college prospects.
The talent at The Opening attracts college scouts to Beaverton like fresh nectar in a flower garden brings in bees.
Scott will be attending the camp from June 30 ? July 3.
?It feels great. This is one thing that I really wanted and that I have been working very hard for,? Scott said. ?I?m going to go out there and do my best to represent N.C. and Havelock.?
Scott put up over 1,700 rushing yards last season at Havelock and already owns the school record as a junior with 4,249 yards on the ground.
He is being sought by a plethora of prominent Division-I programs including South Carolina, Florida State, Ohio State, Tennessee, Florida, Oregon and Notre Dame to name a few.
Another benefit about The Opening for Scott is that it is televised on ESPNU.
?It will be really cool to be on TV. I watched it on TV last year, so I kind of know what to expect,? Scott said. ?It?s what it is all about for me. I want to compete against the other guys in the country who are the best.?
While Scott is basking in the spotlight, the thing he is most concerned about now is taking Havelock back to the state championship game for a third straight time this coming fall.
?The college attention is great and I am really enjoying the whole process,? Scott said. ?Right now though, the only thing I am thinking about is my senior year of high school and my team.?
The Opening and making either the Army or Under Armour All-American Game are two goals Scott has zeroed in on since last season ended. With one of those goals marked off the checklist, a strong performance from Scott in Oregon may in turn bring in the other.
