'10 MI DE/TE William Gholston (Michigan State signee)

Was just looking at his stats on the scout profile and it says he had 19 sacks and 2 INTs as a sophomore. That's sick.

Vern was probably my favorite Buckeye ever on the D-Line and an absolute pleasure to watch. Definitely cool his cousin has become a big Buckeye fan in the process.

19 is a misprint, 9 is the number that it should be...

Really looking forward to following this young mans progression over the next 2 years. Here's hoping that when it's time for him to "pull the trigger" that there's a "silver bullet" in the chamber.

Peace, and best of luck young brother!

Bucknuts has some pictures up of the "little" Gholston at the Nike camp. Apparently he measured at 6'7 240. Woah.

Hope he had a good time.

William Gholston (6-7, 230), Defensive end (Detroit/Southeastern)
Former OSU linebacker Vernon Gholston may have left for the NFL, but there is another Gholston waiting in the wings. William Gholston, cousin of the New York Jets' No. 6 overall pick in the 2008 draft, will only be a junior next fall but is a similarly freakish athlete.

At 6-foot-7, 230 pounds, he is still a bit awkward in some of his movements and struggles with leverage but showed good get-off, quickness and above average hand usage beating defenders off the edge on the pass-rush. He didn't dominate physically turning the shoulder or attacking half the body but was aggressive and finished well versus older competition. Gholston clearly has the upside to develop into a top 2010 defensive prospect.
