QUOTES

Advice from Martavious Odoms: “Stay on top of my game and don’t let work pile up. He also told me to stay warm.”

One word to describe Mike Barwis: “Crazy.”

ANALYSIS

Scott Kennedy, Scout: “A standup defensive end for his Pahokee team, Hawthorne’s game is based on recognitionB. Hawthorne II and closing speed. He lives in the offensive backfield, and makes it nearly impossible for a back to run wide around his end. He’ll be a linebacker on the college level and will need to get bigger and stronger, but size and strength are easy to add. His flexibility, quick burst, and nose for the football are much harder to come by.”

Scouts, Inc.: “Hawthorne possesses all the physical tools for a college program to mold into a disruptive perimeter player at the next level if they are patient with his development.. Great range, covers a lot of ground quickly despite lacking great 40 time on paper. Will turn and chase and does not give up on the play. Flashes some fast-twitched burst when he gets a clear read. Strong tackler with some good pop on contact and raw upper-body strength tossing down ball carriers.. Needs to add major bulk and strength to separate and keep blockers off his body while he locates the ball.. Pass coverage skills are raw. Bottom line, we feel Hawthorne is greatly underrated and is a definite late bloomer with a ton of natural gifts to develop at the next level. Expect his stock to take off.”

Willie Hickman, Pahokee CB: “Brandin’s a monster. He goes 100 percent — the whole play, the whole game — he’s just a monster. It’s good to have him on your team. You don’t have to sit around and wait for somebody else to make the play, because he’s going to make the play.”
