"Sleeper" prospect opened some eyes at the recent Scout combine in Chicago - Link. Good size for a cornerback, and supposedly displayed "lock down" skills at the combine.

Claims offers from Michigan State, Minnesota, Purdue, Colorado, and some MAC schools, but is a huge fan of Ohio State (not offered) - Link.

Probably not much interest from the Buckeyes at this point, but Jonathan is a "big" CB who fits the JT mold.

Seems like lately there are more and more kids in Michigan who are Ohio State fans...can only help us down the road. I like that he has us as "high" interest and no one else...

Great combines have resulted in offers from Purdue, Michigan State, Toledo, Ball State and Colorado. OSU is his overwhelming favorite but he is not hearing from the Buckeyes at this point.

Still plenty of time for him to catch the staff's attention...

He would be smart to attend one of our camps. HOw does he compare to Malcolm Jenkins? Seems the same size and ability coming out of high school.

I think Jenkins was a little more stout, but it's a pretty solid comparison...

A little bit. Scout had him listed at 6'0" 180 and now is listed at 6'1" 202 on the official roster.

Jonathan has offers from Michigan State, Minnesota and Colorado and several MAC schools. He will decide after taking visits.
