Scout Profile

Gino is receiving interest from all over the east coast and midwest. He holds offers from WVU and Toledo, but speaks highly of tOSU and his desire to play for such a big program.

Another good looking OOS OL prospect for '07. Gino looks like the kind of kid who could come to camp and leave with an offer if he performs well.

I think it's pretty obvious that he's Bruce Gradkowski's brother. He'll be an interesting prospect to watch.

Certainly explains his offer from Toledo :). They'll be sure to make him a priority

Gino also holds a verbal offer from Pitt... I talked to some Pitt fans and they say Gino has great feet and will be a really good C/OG prospect for next year...

 

[Moose]

Gino looks like a good O-line prospect, hope OSU offers. I could see him pulling the trigger early. Just a hunch. OSU likes those that desire to be buckeyes.

I havent seen it mentioned here, but if you've seen his brother play, you know that this has to be a tough kid. His brother was a tough quarterback, he was never afraid to lower his head and get an extra yard no matter what the situation.

Hopefully this kid is the same as his brother. Its not secret we need quite a few o-liners this year, and this kid would be a good addition.

I agree with your assessment of Bruce's tough play. Being from Toledo i saw my fair share of Rocket games, and Bruce is one tough cookie. Like you said hopefully his brother is just as tough, if not tougher.

Film.

My Take: Gino is aggressive and mobile but does need to work on his base. However, his ability to get to the second level was impressive.
