Going back to the Sugar Bowl in '11, I love this commitment. That Arkansas punter should have been the MVP of the game. I love to think we might have that kind of player in a few years.

You know what? Chicken butt.
Speedy offense that wants to run up the score, elite defense front to back and a great punter. I like it. Welcome aboard Mr. T!!!!! I think you and Bryce will be a great combo.

WELCOME JOHNNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Keep that ball in the air 4.5 seconds or better and I don't think we'll see very many returns at all.

Pretty sure we have a long snapper on scholly too (Bryce Haynes), so they could be quite the team.

The number 5 punter in the nation? That works.
On the one hand, all the excellent training and tutoring he obtained may mean that his ceiling into the future it not as high as someone in the rough. However, I think it says a lot about him that he went out and obtained the best private coaches. I like that.
I like Ben as a punter, but maybe Johny will push him? Maybe Johny will start?
And I have to like the fact that he is a baseball player. Those guys all "throw" the ball, right? I can think of one backup quarterback who played baseball. Maybe we are in for a fake punt or two in the next four or five years?

Johnny Townsend is set to be a Buckeye

Boone senior punter Johnny Townsend
ORLANDO --
After nearly two years of hard work, it took less than week for Johnny Townsend to decide where he was going to college. The Boone punter recently attended a camp at Ohio State University. When first year head coach Urban Meyer saw Townsend in action he offered him a full scholarship. It turned out to be an offer that Townsend couldn?t refuse.
?It all happened very quickly, a week of solid day after day camps, trying to get as much exposure as possible,? said Townsend. ?It was a very quick process, but the work that went into it was about a two year process. It really wasn?t as quick as most people would think. It was a much longer process, getting ready for that one week period of camps.?
Townsend was named the top punter at Nick Saban?s punting camp at the University of Alabama this summer, where he was offered a preferred walk-on spot for the Crimson Tide.
Townsend?s verbal declaration makes him the first Buckeye commit from the Class of 2013 in the Central Florida area, with a possibility of more to come.
?I?m definitely going to try to get a few kids to come up there with me, I?m going to do a little bit of recruiting,? the 6-foot, 200-pound added. ?I was handed a list of kids in this area that I need to start speaking to and get them familiarized with Ohio State and the coaching staff and the kind of program they are running up there. I definitely am going to talk to other kids, not only at Boone High School, but other kids through Facebook to try to spark some interest up there.?
