Mickey Plyler on Bashaud Breeland: "Breeland reminds me of former Tiger Michael Hamlin because Breeland comes from a small school but he has a bright future. Breeland has good range. I can see him attacking the line of scrimmage against the run too. I think this is one of the top ten players in South Carolina."
