During the AA game did anyone else hear the announcers talking about Cris Carter helping out with the St. Thomas program? I could have swore they said it when referencing Sam Young or the center who is going to ND. If things progress with Hankerson having Carter so close to the situation should help the Buckeyes.

Is this also Nate Salley's old stomping grounds? Maybe if he can get a little draft attention, and talk to the kid, that could help us out. Salley is a true diehard buckeye, I am sure he would ahve plenty of good things to say.

Wow! Half of his catches were TD's!

Correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't this also the school that sends almost every player to Florida schools? (I think FSU gets most of them)

Doesn't look like it...

They sent two OL to ND this year (Sam Young and Dan Wenger).

Make that 2 (w/Major Wright) to come out recently with interest in us from STA.

Maybe our success in Florida last year is translating into early interest and heavier recruiting in the sunshine state. Hopefully we can land a big name Florida guy or two this year.

Video of Leonard.

My take: Leonard is pretty adept at going up in the air and making a play on the ball. His team seems to really be an offensive machine...the QBs get great time to throw and the offensive line does a fantastic job in PA pass protection. Leonard also shows decent speed and looks like a pretty soli 185...he does not get brought down with arm tackles.
