Same H.S. as '08 Buckeye B-Ball commit Walter Offutt.

6-1 210 safety Jerimy Finch and 6-5 225 TE Adrien Robinson are two others on the Warren Central team that Tressel and Company will likely be looking at.

At least Evans attended the Texas game last year.

The midwest has a high number

of safeties and RB's this year, should be enough for everyone to get a solid players at these positions.

There is a high number of all positions. I really can't think of a position that is down, besides maybe QB, but Ohio seems to have 2 good ones. Not sure about other states.

I know of at least one in PA... Bostick is a stud.

Evans looks like a nice player. I heard that staff was in to visit him recently.

ND site..........Evans' coach compares his running style to a Lendal White. Michigan, Ohio State, UCLA, Miami, Florida State, Auburn and LSU are just a few of the schools in contact. Kirk Ferentz is visiting next week.

lot of good RBs in the region next year...Morgan Williams, Quincy Landingham, John Clay, Robert Hughes, Henry Hynoski, Dan Herron, Dale Martin, Chaz Jones etc. (and that's assuming Gamble and Mabin end up at DB).

Warren is the powerhouse in Indiana right now. They have some real athletes. They run for about 500 yards everygame. Don't throw any passes. His stats may be inflated because of the system. But he's a good runner. Powerful but has some shiftiness for a big guy. He's real comparable to another 07 recruit in Dan Herron from what I see. I haven't seen Herron play, but from what I read they seem similar.

I don't think the Bucks end up offering, but he can be a good back.

Darren is coming to Columbus for a second visit this weekend. He talks mainly to tOSU, Michigan, and ND, but is hearing from plenty of other schools. Darren will visit schools all over the country during his spring break.

Pay close attention to Warren Central this year...
I've been told by some that Finch is the real prize here...
I do know that we like Evans a lot.

You may want to add Jeremy Finch to the database if you haven't already

You may want to add Jeremy Finch to the database if you haven't already

If you have bonafide info of any interest on his and/or our staff's part, start a thread on him...
