The honors continue to come in for true freshman Mike Lee. The true freshman from Louisiana, who was rated a cornerback in high school, was named this morning as one of the top 15 freshman in the nation by Rivals.com.

The Skinny: Lee surprised many by signing with Kansas. His relationship with coach Tony Hill was one of the major factors that put the Jayhawks over the top. Initially a 2017 recruit, Lee was able to graduate early and made it on campus for the 2016 season. He quietly put together one of the better true freshman seasons in the country, finishing with 77 tackles, 1.5 tackles for a loss, one interception, two forced fumbles and three pass breakups. He was most impressive at the conclusion of the season when he finished with 33 tackles, a forced fumble and an interception during the last three games.

Farrell’s Take: We liked Lee a lot based on his four-star ranking - he’s the rare four-star who committed to Kansas in recent years. We expected him to remain a 2017 recruit, get better as a senior and impact early, but the fact that he has made a major impact when he should still be playing high school ball is impressive. He wasn’t the biggest or the fastest corner but he had great instincts, he loves to hit and he was always physical.

The rest of the list will be released throughout the week.
