Doesn't really matter. Other than probably for 5-star HS prospects, the evaluation of HS prospects is probably even more challenging than for the evaluation of JC prospects.

For example, San Diego State DL Jonah Tavai was selected as a 2022 AP 2nd-Team All-American yet had no offers coming out of Mira Costa HS (Manhattan Beach, CA.) as a full-qualifier because college recruiters concluded that he lacked the "so-called" desired physical measureables even though he already possessed favorable intangibles so was left (with no FBS or FCS college offers) to attend El Camino College (Alondra Park, CA.) for his true frosh season before being offered by San Diego State & San Jose State (after UH still decided not to offer).

The quantity and quality of offers probably correlates to UH's recruiting odds of successfully signing a JC prospect but doesn't necessarily reflect the quality of the prospect.....when considering that several recent UH starters (Marcus Armstrong-Brown, Zion Bowens, Cedric Byrd, Makoa Camanse-Stevens, Cortez Davis, Alex Green, Mana Hudson-Rasmussen, Kendall Hune, Kohl Levao, Cameron Lockridge, DJuan Matthews, Kana’i Pinanco, Gene Pryor, Jason-Matthew Sharsh, Jared Smart, Justus Tavai, JoJo Ward) received minimal other recruiting offers/interest coming out of the JC ranks.

While Coach Abe identified, evaluated & recruited several of these under-the-radar JC prospects (Bowens, Byrd, Davis, Hudson-Rasmussen, Lockridge, Tavai) to UH, hopefully the entire UH coaching and recruiting staff are solid evaluators of physical talent & abilities (as well as personal character) in order to find and recruit that under-the-radar sleeper JC prospect (who is academically eligible to transfer in to UH).....since several P5 and G5 programs are also focusing their current Fall recruiting efforts on JC prospects (with the transfer portal limited only to graduate transfers until early-December) more so than HS prospects (who were the focus of recruiting efforts from Spring through Summer).

The Rainbow Warriors will sign cornerback Deliyon Freeman and hybrid end Domata Peko on Wednesday, the first day football prospects may ink letters of intent this semester. They also have secured a 2024 commitment from edge defender Tristan Waiamau-Galindo.

Freeman, who is 5 feet 11 and 170 pounds, is a senior at East Coweta High in Sharpsburg, Ga. He played basketball through his sophomore year before joining the football team as a cornerback as a junior. As a senior, he played both receiver and corner. He projects to play cornerback for the Warriors.

Freeman reached out to UH cornerbacks coach Abraham Elimimian in December. After reviewing Freeman’s videos and talking with his coaches, the Warriors offered a recruiting trip last weekend. “It already felt like home the first day I came out there,” Freeman said. “It was really a no-brainer I was going to sign. I liked everything — the program, the nature, the vibes.”

Freeman was timed at 4.5 seconds over 40 yards as a junior. He will compete in track in the 100- and 200-meter sprints this spring.

A diamond in the rough, especially if he has only played two years of high school football.
