    Says the Michigan homer. Keep dreaming.

    dude is virtually the size of a college LB already. Unreal!

    If your a 5'5 150 pound slot reciever would you be considering a pro style offense? Hell no you wouldn't!

    He's huge! He will have to learn to spell if he wants to go to Ohio State. Check out the School Info tab.

    List the colleges you are interested in: Teledo, Ohio state, Morehouse, Perdue, UCLA, Indiana, etc
  • Quint
    HAHAHAHA!!!! I didn't even notice that!

    Carter looks enormous, but he seems to move pretty well. . . trim some baby fat off him and he could be solid.
  • tcarrier32
    he looks to be a pretty good player on a horrible team

    Safety Damian Swann from Georgia is the latest offer.

    It is nice to see OL and S are the top priorities. However, we need more DT offers.

    Interesting that Harley and Holts have not been offered yet. There must be some issue.
  • OneBuckeye
    It looks like OSU has a different strategy this year than previous years. Most of the kids that are offered are consider ohio state highly and could be early commits. There are only a few national offers like Wilder, Dorsett and a couple of LBs. Especially at safety it looks like they will be going for a first one in gets the spot mentality a la Texas. Looks like they are going that route with the OL too... except most of the OL offers kids are huge OSU leans.
  • purple_rein
    ^ Yes. That is the strategy this year and I have no problem with it.

    We need 5 OL. We have offered 4 in state and 1 out of state (Bobek) that are all the same calliber. Take the first 4 of those and then hold onto one for a bigger fish.

    Newest kid with an offer... Dad and Grandpa played for the Canes so I wouldn't expect to hear much more about this kid and OSU.
  • Non
    I believe OSU offered Aaron Lynch, DE/OLB, from Cape Coral Island Coast HS

    Just happened on Feb. 18 according to scout.com.

    I watched him play several times and have spoken to him before. Real good kid. But an intense player with a good work ethic.

    He's about 6'5/6'6 245 lbs. Still growing.
