After the Mack commitment, it looks like we're headed for something like: QB: Wallace RB: Walker H: Hill, McCall Z: (Craig-Myers, Mitchell, Victor or Crowell) Y: Hawkins X: Mack TE: Hausmann, (Ferrell) OL: Jordan, Wohlabaugh, Gerald DE: Hall, Cooper, (Bosa) DT: Barrow, (Gary, Jackson, Williams...

I agree with both of you guys completely. Lock down the majority of a position group, then put your resources into a combination of retaining the commits and shooting for a top-5 caliber recruit as the cherry on top. Fortunately for us, most of the guys we are locking down are top-5 caliber...

Mitchell is the kind of player you get jacked up to about 220 and move him around between the Z, Y and the H. He's got a unique combination of elusiveness, strength and vision. His running style is similar to Marshall and Mack: A little upright, but strong through the hips with great balance...

I personally wouldn't call anything about Layne's game elite. I think he is a good high school player, I just like the guys I listed more. Mack and Victor are simply in another talent stratosphere, not much needs to be said there. Corley is not quite as good of a jump ball player as Layne...

Good luck to Layne at MSU. I know it can be disappointing losing talented Ohio players to other B1G schools, but I think the staff made the right decision backing down on this one. If you let the tape do the talking, Mack, Corley and Victor are simply better prospects. The staff wants dynamic...

Yeah, definitely. My comment about not recruiting DEs for a couple years was tongue-in-cheek. I'm sure this staff is going to be relentless about stocking up on talent in the trenches.

Haha, if we get those 5 guys, we could shut down DE recruiting for a couple years. If we do land those 5, I would think Bosa and Hall get into the rotation immediately, Cooper and Robertson redshirt and Sammons goes to OT. With so much time until they get on campus, who knows how it will...

That has to be one of the best first steps I've seen in years, and he's got the moves to match. On film, you can see he has the ability to successfully execute bullrushes, swim moves and spin moves against TEs, Ts and Gs. When it comes to effort, he seems to do whatever it takes to disrupt the...

http://www.hudl.com/athlete/2783591/highlights/196579376/v2 Flat-footed runner with powerful legs, great burst, deceptive elusiveness and elite vision. He runs like a slightly smaller version of #13 at the same age. If he keeps progressing, he'll be a special college player.

Yeah, and realistically, neither will get a shot to start for at least a couple years, so it will be a while before this gets resolved. The only way I can see it clearing up sooner is if the staff feels he can get on the field sooner at WR. Even if that's the case, I can see Gibson resisting for...

Yeah, I respect your opinion and can understand why you would like to see him there. One of the biggest reasons I'd like to see Wilson at a different spot is to get him on the field the same time as Marshall/Miller. It's kind of a silly discussion because I'm sure we'll probably see a bunch of...

No one is suggesting any absolutes here. We're just projecting based on our evaluation of the available film/stats/combine performances. I don't think anyone doubts that the staff will eventually figure it out.

Me 3. Gibson has better speed and arm strength, but Burrows is pretty far ahead with nearly every other QB-specific skill. Gibson's last snap at QB during the AAAG was pretty concerning to me from a judgement standpoint. His team is down, it's 4th down and he panics and tries to outrun a LB who...

I prefer Wilson moving to Z full-time, personally. I think it fits his skillset better than the H. He would still be eligible for motioning, screens and jet sweeps, but wouldn't have to worry about running between the tackles very often. Ideally, I would love to see Miller (if his shoulder is...

I think a lot of people forgot about his catch during the VT game for obvious reasons, but that was one of the most impressive catches I've ever seen.

In games he started, the Buckeyes went 27-3. He gets to leave OSU with All-American and All-B1G recognition, 3 pairs of gold pants, an undefeated season, a sugar bowl victory, a conference championship, a national championship and the opportunity to learn directly under both Mike Vrabel and...

Yeah, Dickerson was the first player I thought of the first time I saw his highlights. You could say a thicker McFadden, a more north-south Yeldon, a slimmer Beanie... If he's a hard worker and stays healthy, he'll be that caliber of RB in college.

Yeah, he definitely has an efficient, upright running style similar to Gordon, Charles or more recently, 2015 prospect Ronald Jones II. The difference: Gordon, Charles and Jones were all 5'11, 185 pound recruits. Walker is 6'1, 210 as a high school junior. This is a very special and unusual...

Maybe we can just agree to disagree on that one. (see 54 seconds, 1 minute 12 seconds)
