2016 FOOTBALL RECRUITING ISSUE sideline. Devin is a legacy; his Dad was a phenomenal player, a Super Bowl champion, which helps you un- derstand why Devin is very smart on the field. He's got a good head on his shoulders, and he understands the game. "He has a great personality, is outgo- ing, and will be a leader in the locker room and in the school. Everyone seems to gravitate towards Devin. We expect big things out of him." • Flanagan Head Coach Devin Bush Sr.: "He's going to come in and be smart. He should take a leadership role. He plays with a lot of energy, you'll see that passion come out of him in his play." • Rivals.com Southeast Recruiting Analyst Rob Cassidy: "Devin does a lot of things well, and even though he doesn't have great size for the linebacker position, he makes up for it with his skills. He can run, he can definitely hit and he's a good fit for the middle linebacker position. He makes up for size with good athleticism." • Tom Lemming Of Prep Football Report: "Devin is one of the best line- backers in the country. He's a great catch for Michigan — not a good one, but a great one. I wouldn't be sur- prised to see him play right away as a freshman. "He's not real tall, but I thought he was the most explosive defensive player in Florida this year. He's per- fectly suited for the inside linebacker spot. He does nothing but make plays. When you watch him on film, he's around the ball on almost every single play."
