'07 OH ATH Carlton Peake (Louisville signee, transfer to ???)

just me but, after reading about what an athlete he is and by the time he plays college ball he will add to size to go with 4.46 speed . I would love him as a safety.With his size that would be like having a LB or hopefully, a bigger Whitner back there.

If we get him in at LB, he could be a heck of a Leo/Cie Grant-ish type of LB for us. I'm equally as excited if he's patrolling our D-backfield as a safety though too. There's no doubt though- I like him on the D side of the ball in college.

Well there is no reason to think a guy can't add 20-30 lbs to a 6'2'' 210 lb frame in 2 or 3 years, before he would be needed at the linebacker position.

Once he gets here, it would be harder to keep that weight off and stay at 210 than to gain the weight.

And I don't think he would have problem keepign that speed.

Grades?

Is there any updates on if tOSU will offer based on his grades or do they look good enough for him to be accepted as they are? (Earlier reported 2.52 and 16 ACT) Does anyone think an offer to him would affect an offer to Dailey (look like they could play the same S/ LB role)? I know it is early and the coaches will take who the believe are the best but the numbers will have to be looked at. Just in Ohio you have Oliver, Clifford, Arnold, Dailey, Givens and Peake.

The kids grades shouldn't be a problem, he had a 3.1 core GPA for the 3rd grading period. He also retook the ACT last weekend. He just received offers from Michigan St. and Iowa. Iowa's Defensive Back coach is coming to Trotwood on Monday to see Peake. Michigan is also coming to Trotwood this week to see Peake and Marcus English a 6'1 3/4" CB. English has offers from UNC, West Virginia, Buffalo, Eastern Michigan..

Go Bucks Offer This Kid!!!

I know we go by speed, big speed, and power but I would think Peake getting an offer would tell us one of two things: Clifford is possibly being recruited as a WR primarily or they are offering Peake first over Dailey and Hines, because I'm pretty sure we won't offer all 3 if Peake is coming as a LB, which is where I personally like him with his size.
