  1. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    Now that is a GPA in my book!!! I guess I am similar to Garrett in that I do not pay much attention to praise rather to provide honest & insightful information!!! Now my HONEST reply.....I guess I have been purely oblivious / ignorant to the basic rules of this forum and all of it's offerings...
  2. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    Uh oh, now I feel the pressure to meet / exceed members expectations of any insight I might share!! What took so long to earn such praise??(Joking of course!!) Do not worry as I will still post whatever is on my mind & anything I obtain from "inside" sources....including the GOOD, the BAD, &...
  3. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    a little help PLEASE Pardon my ignorance for asking..but GPA is an acronym for???? (Besides the obvious Grade Pt. Avg.) In the coming years I hope to not ask these ?'s .....OK! Thank you for your understanding.
  4. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    Unnecessary to convey fan's loyalty as Garrett has been in absolute "AWE" of the Buckeye Nation and the alumni from coast to coast. Prior to Garrett verbally commiting last yr. numerous BUC fans wished Garrett the best WHEREVER he ended up and this spoke loudly as to the quality, character &...
  5. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    Not at all!!! When I asked Garrett about this recently he replied "It does not matter one way or the other, whatever the coaches think is best" (Which is typical nonchalant "Garrett") Quite honestly in March of 2007 (Garrett's 1st visit to OSU) I asked the coaches if they planned to RS...
  6. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    From what I understand the DL vets have made major improvements across the board + no major injuries. I know Coach Heacock is happy and the probability of Goebel redshirting seems to be rising as well. Garrett might prefer to RS as opposed to playing a handful of plays ea. game thereby using up...
  7. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    Connection to Garrett?? I sensed back last April that this decision would be a FAMILY decision & the ND worship would be a potentially losing battle. What confused me was the things Watt would say yet his actions were occasionally contradictory (This IS NOT his nature) so I do not know...too...
  8. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    Yes indeed. Watt will take JT's advice to heart (Take your time when making your final decision so that you are 100% sure you've made the right choice) and thoroughly review his shortened list. Final decision probably will be made in the next few weeks.
  9. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    Chris wraps up his BC visit today & heads home later this evening. (At least that was the last I heard). I have no more info. than this at the present time.
  10. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    I do not have the foggiest idea nor will I lose a wink of sleep over it. For the various ?'s directed at me in recent posts I will answer most by the following statements: I do have contact with Chris (+family) more than every 1, 2 months yet I do not inquire about HIS Current FAVORITES rather...

    Could not have said it any better......Thanks!!
  12. DT Garrett "The Gladiator" Goebel (official thread)

    He has been lifting 5-6X / wk., going to CORE-1 Speed Camp 2-3X / wk. He is a solid 280 lbs. and did not want to put any "dead" weight on mainly due to the fact that the coaches have told him they plan to use him at BOTH DT & DE (Not just DT which most everyone has assumed) Been a lot of talk...

    Watch for Chicago Tribune / WGN TV to announce their choice of "2008 Athlete of the Yr." this coming Friday.
  15. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    Yes I get the impression CW's father is a ND fan. But remember that his father did not join Chris @ 1st visit to OSU. He will join Chris on 2nd visit some time in next 60 days. Chris is similar to Garrett in terms of humble and a young man of few words (which is why I wanted to assist him any...
  16. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    For those of you who followed Garrett Goebel's recruiting journey may recall that the last school Garrett visited was U of MICHIGAN. However at that time (July) Garrett was already 95% sure that the Buckeyes were the "perfect fit" for him. Since MICHIGAN was late to offer Garrett he did not even...
  17. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    I would like to clarify one point regarding why Chris Watt (& family) requested my assistance in helping to manage his recruiting process. Due to my familiarity with numerous programs / recruiting coordinators as a result of managing my nephew Garrett Goebel as well as a former teamate of Watt's...
  18. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    ???'s RE: Chris Watt Watt's father did not attend however Chris & his mother were VERY impressed. Chris shall make another visit w / father some time this June / July. As far as ND....give them time to cut their own throats by constantly putting pressure on Watt. As ND continues to "corner"...
  19. '09 IL OL Chris Watt (Notre Dame Signee)

    Apparently Watt is enjoying ND (Rob Ianello, Recruiting Coordinator) attention. This approach (Constant communication, hard sell & pressuring) really annoyed Garrett and ultimately removed ND from Garrett's "Top Three Choices". IMO the critical factor will be Watt's visit(s) to Columbus...

    Garrett is officially retired from wrestling Sorry, but Garrett is done wrestling & is training heavily for OSU football. He is 100% focused on FOOTBALL at this time.
