According to HH on BII, we are not out of the picture with Hornsby yet...
I know this off topic but what is BII? Gracious BN27

BTW - good news but I dont see this kid leaving FL. I am sure he will see how well our passing offense performs this year and the potential AAs in Holmes and Ginn but coming north to OSU or scUM will be next to impossible.

The only in we have is Wells. How much he plays may factor into the equation.

Jamar Hornsby

</TD><TD noWrap width=3></TD><TD vAlign=top>By Allen Wallace National Recruiting Editor
Date: Jun 14, 2005

Jamar Hornsby (6-4, 195, 4.5) likes the Florida offense and says Michigan has promised him their famous #1 jersey. Georgia, Georgia Tech and USC will have to come from behind, but the Sandalwood High (Jacksonville, Fla.) athlete hails from Georgia, grew up following the Bulldogs--and he might take all his official visits.

Jamar Hornsby (6-4, 195, 4.5) has over 30 offers from schools coast-to-coast. Schools want Hornsby as either a defensive back or wide receiver. The standout from Sandalwood High School in Jacksonville (Fla.) has always been open about his favorites.

"My top five schools are still Florida, Michigan, USC, Georgia and Georgia Tech," said Hornsby. "All of them have offered me and each school either wants me as a DB or a wide receiver. I'll play wherever the team needs me, just as long as I'm on the field.

"Right now Florida is my leader, followed by Michigan and Georgia. That pretty much rounds out my top three," he said.

"I went on an unofficial visit to Florida (6/4) and just loved the trip. They're the one program that's recruiting me the hardest and the one that I talk to the most. I got to meet most of the players and we all had a great little cookout on some lake in Gainesville, with the coaches also, on that trip. They've really got a great offense over there. I've also got a great chance at playing right away there too. They're recruiting me as wide receiver," he said.

"I'm still also really thinking about Michigan. They don't just tell me that I can play right away, but they've told me that I've got a great chance of coming in and starting right away. Plus, coach (Scot) Loeffler (quarterbacks) has told me that the #1 jersey will be open to me if I go there. That's a huge number to wear as your jersey and it's got some great history at Michigan. Not just anyone can wear that number," he said.

"I'm originally from Georgia, so I've been a Bulldog since I was young. Other than that I don't know much else about them, but I'd like to definitely try to get out there, as well as to Georgia Tech, for unofficial visits this summer," he said.

"With USC, all I really know is that they're a great program and they're in a great location. I don't know that much else about them either. "I'll probably end up taking all five of my official visits and then decide on a program sometime after the season," he said. 2.7 GPA/May 6 SAT scores undisclosed.

IIRC doesn't scum give that jersey to a PROVEN player? Iseem to remember something along those lines when Braylon Edwards wanted it, Lloyd woulnd't let him wear it until he was proven on the field. I don't know all the details, it is michigan, but this line of recruiting seems pretty shady to me.

Jamar Hornsby

I saw that the other thread was locked up. I am not sure if I am able to start a new one, so delete this if you want. I just found some new news about Hornsby and OSU.

It is on the Scout Michigan site. Hornsby has set up 2 official visits, one to OSU and the other to Michigan. It sounds like he is serious about those 2 Big Ten schools. I am wondering if in the end, it is a Michigan-OSU battle. The official visits will be very important.

From the Michigan site...Jamar lists his top 5 as Florida, Michigan, Georgia Tech, Georgia and USC. He has however scheduled visits to Michigan and Ohio State, although he is not sure of the dates. He is getting to be tight with Tim Tebow and they are talking about possibly playing together in college (bodes well for Florida, in my opinion).

Thanks. I just thought OSU fans would be interested. He didn't even mention OSU in his group of teams but now it seems like they may actually be a favorite. OSU and Michigan are his only 2 official visits now, unless he made one to Florida also, so I think there is a good chance that those 2 are the top 2. It would be a huge get for the Bucks. Bringing in the 1st or 2nd best player in the state of Florida is impressive for any non-Florida team.
