Well here are my impressions of the Buckeye players. I will admit up front that I am no expert, just a fan.
Curtis Terry - Haven't heard his name called much but the play where he got to the quarterback from the edge was awfully impressive. Not surprising a Glenville kid has wheels but his speed was eye opening.
Brandon Smith - Probably a better athlete than a football player at this point. Big kid with good speed but hasn't made a lot of plays.
Skeete - Better kicker than a punter. As kickers go he looks like a good one. Showed a big, accurate leg on the FG and the kickoffs have been deep.
Alex Barrow - Long and rangy. Looks like he could use a redshirt year to get stronger but he has some skills and a good motor.
Erik Haw - Hasn't got much going but he's awfully quick and has some power. He's got a thick lower body and doesn't dance much in the hole.
Brandon Underwood - Good size for a corner and has good ball skills, something EJ was criticized for early on.
Sirjo - Got beat on the TD by Williams but he is a safety after all. Made a nice tackle on Hoyer who was running in the flats. Seems like a sure tackler and a good hitter.
Shaun Lane - A little on the short side but he's pretty thick. He's made some nice plays at corner but his name has not been called much. I want to see him with the ball in his hands. I think he'll be a nice return man for us.
Ben Person - I honestly think Person is going to be a great player for us and may play some this fall but he hasn't looked great tonight. I'd have to watch the tape of the game to focus on him but what little I've seen he has good feet and does drive block well. He could probably be a little quicker but these guys haven't played football in a while so I'm sure he's not in playing shape at this point.
Chad Hoobler - He looks physically ready to help us this fall. Haven't seen much of him at TE but he's a nice looking athlete and has a sack and a couple QB pressures. He's gonna be a good one.
