Hello, my name is . . . the links

Here are the links to the "Hello, my name is . . ." series, which only feels as though it's been running for months.

I would love to hear from you on this.

Who has the quickest track to playing time? Who is the sleeper? Who is the Karl Klug? Who is the "whoa, who's that guy?"

Thanks for bearing with me on this. When/if OL Alex Kozan commits, I guess I'd have one more to do.

(Also, I went and found the "Ferentz on" links from the last few years. We can all laugh at my wildly inaccurate projections.)

I'd like to thank tight ends coach/recruiting coordinator Eric Johnson for the interview he gave on signing day. His insight here is much appreciated.
