'09 OH OL/DL Ryan Spiker (West Virginia Verbal)

[OregonBuckeye]

What I meant was in terms of their being 3 schollies left...I would say that group doesn't include Mewhort, because they are already counting him as in, as he has already committed...

Right, so he is being included. 3 schollies are left after Mewhort.

Being that OSU clearly won't offer, anyone have any insight as to where he will end up?

 

[3074326]

I had a small conversation about where he'd end up if OSU didn't offer and the person I was talking to made it sound like everyone who had offered was pretty even, but WVU was favored.

This conversation was a few weeks ago, so don't hold me to it. :tongue2:

I'll see if I can get an update in the next day or so.

Spiker commits to West Virginia



By SAM BLACKBURN ? Staff Writer ? July 16, 2008

DRESDEN - The wait is over for Ryan Spiker.
Spiker, Tri-Valley's standout two-way lineman, has issued a verbal commitment to play at West Virginia, he confirmed on Tuesday.
He will be a senior for the Scotties, who are coming off consecutive playoff appearances and a Muskingum Valley League championship.
Spiker chose WVU over Michigan State and Indiana. He also had offers from Cincinnati, North Carolina State and Wake Forest, among others. He had 12 Division I offers total.
"I went to their spring practice," Spiker said. "I really like the offensive line coach (David Johnson) and (Head) Coach (Bill) Stewart seems like a really good guy. Just going around campus and all of that, it just kinda stuck out to me. I fit in there."
