Uncommitted prospects:
In terms of uncommitted prospects, Team Machspeed has the most of any of The Opening 7-on-7 teams. There are 16 uncommitted prospects on this team, five of which are ranked in the top 100 of the ESPN 300 rankings. Wide receivers Tee Higgins, ranked No. 23, and James Robinson at 29 are the highest-ranked on the offensive side. Higgins has a top five of Tennessee, Clemson, Ohio State, Florida State and Ole Miss. For defense, cornerbacks Darnay Holmes at 39 and Grant Delpit at 57 are the two highest-ranked on the team that are yet to make a commitment. Delpit is announcing his decision at The Opening, however, so he will eventually be removed from the uncommitted list.
