2009 Rivals/Scout/etc. National & Regional Rankings

Rivals.com Football Recruiting - New No. 1 in updated Rivals100 (free)

12/10

Of note (previous rank in parentheses):

#13 Morgan Moses
#30 Dorian Bell (27)
#32 Jamie Wood (29)
#44 Corey Brown (43)
#47 Jaamal Berry (47)
#57 Marlon Brown (57)
#70 C.J. Barnett (67)
#75 Marcus Hall (72)
#82 Justin Green (78)
#86 Tajh Boyd
#95 Melvin Fellows (92)
#100 Corey Adams (98)

Not one OSU target in the Rivals100 moved up...every recruit either stayed put or slid a few spots...what more proof do you need that committed prospects don't sell subscriptions?

Adding to yesterday's debacle...

Rivals.com Football Recruiting - Running backs among big movers in Rivals250

12/11

Of note:

#113 Chris Fields (109)
#134 Kevin Newsome
#164 Corey Linsley (162)
#167 Dominic Clarke (NR)
#207 Storm Klein (205)
#214 James Jackson (213)
#224 Brad McDougald (222)

On Clarke's move into the Rivals250:

Two defensive backs and a tight end break up the string of running backs making major moves in the Rivals250. Cornerbacks Josh Hunter from Charlotte (N.C.) Mallard Creek and Dominic Clarke from Frederick (Md.) Tuscarora check in at Nos. 165 and 167 respectively from outside the 250. Rivals.com National Analyst Mike Farrell feels both will be impact players in college.

...

"While Clarke doesn't have Hunter's size, he's as physical as they come at corner and he is great in space. He's a sure tackler, he's physical and he runs very well. His closing speed is impressive and he's just a hard guy to work against. Ohio State fans are going to love him."

So to recap, not much movement for OSU recruits other than Clarke...but what is noticeable is that every OSU recruit outside of Clarke either stayed in exactly the same spot (Berry, Brown) or slid a few spots (every other OSU verbal/recruit).

Josh Hunter is extremely overrated. He has all the measurables but thats it, he covered me this year. He isn't good at coming up in run support and isn't that physical in coverage, I caught 3 balls for 55 yards on him.

Gotta feel good dominating a D-1 prospect.

Are you sending your tape to Ohio State?

Does Rivals really not have John Simon in the top 250?

No they don't, although I imagine that will change after his performance in "their" all-american game.

Not a problem...just letting you know we update this thread every time one of the major sites updates their rankings.
