Talks about the Illini. As stated in the post above, and in this article, he and Appleton havent talked about going to college together. Doesnt think he'll make any more visits this spring.

So, on his highlight video on Rivals, I'm the one that got burned for the touchdown at 2:32.. it's so embarrassing

You're #7 who got shook out of his shoes on the right side of the field? That's a genuine question because the video jumps ahead from 1:30 to 2:30 for me.

I thought you said that Hawthorne wasn't that special, Fresh? Or did you mean in comparison to Appleton? I was extremely impressed by his route running ability and quickness. It's impossible to gauge hands from a highlight, but if they're a plus, he's a legit top 100 prospect, IMO.

WholeHogSports.com - RECRUITING : Arkansas working to add to its stockpile of receivers

Quote:

“The recruiting is going good,” Hawthorne said. “My favorites are Illinois, Arkansas, Arizona, Missouri and Kansas State.” Hawthorne said Arkansas has offered him a scholarship and the hiring of Petrino piqued his interest in the Razorbacks.

“I like that Arkansas’ coach has been in the NFL,” Hawthorne said. “So has several of his assistants. I feel if I went to Arkansas and did a good job they could help me maybe get to the next level. It sounds like it would be a good relationship if I went to Arkansas.” While Rivals has placed Hawthorne in its Top 250 players in the nation, Hawthorne said he’s still working hard to improve before he gets to college.

“I feel I do pretty good in all areas, but I do need to work on getting off the line of scrimmage,” Hawthorne said. “I also am working on my cuts while running routes.” Hawthorne said Illinois is the only school on his list he has been to so far for an unofficial visit. He plans on making a trip to Arkansas this summer to check out the campus, facilities and academics.

“I have about six or seven offers right now,” Hawthorne said. “After my season, I will probably make a decision then. I want to take some official visits before I decide, but I don’t think I will be able to take them during the season.”
