These guys are much more likely to make a contribution than any true frosh. I can see Campenni getting into the rotation at DT. McQillen is a very talented and versatile player and TE is a position that could use some depth.
Vann and Ashiru have already been talked about by DC Brown, so they will see the field, if not as part of the two deep, then definitely on special teams.
