Rivals.com Football Recruiting - Sizing up the Army All-American rosters (free)

Obviously we will be paying special attention to these guys:

#1 Dorian Bell
#10 Tajh Boyd (hmmm...prophetic number?)
#16 Corey Brown
#26 Justin Green
#79 Marcus Hall
#77 Morgan Moses
#54 John Simon
#29 Jamie Wood

All OSU's verbals/targets will be playing for the East team...also of note from the article:

The play of the East quarterbacks will be the key for the East team. Two of them, Tampa (Fla.) Plant's Aaron Murray and Hampton (Va.) Phoebus standout Tajh Boyd will be less than 100-percent going in. Murray is recovering from a broken fibula and dislocated ankle while Boyd will be playing with a torn ACL.

playing with a torn ACL in a meaningless all-star game?

That's interesting....it would seem Tajh should redshirt next year just for ACL recovery. I'd assume that also plays into tOSU's favor, as the seperation would allow Tajh to take the reigns with several years of eligbility.

Boyd played with the injury all year, and it can't get any worse by playing another game. He'll RS next year and be good to go in 2010.

 

[Buck Kid 66]

It can't be torn all the way, for him to be playing on it.

Brown and Bell look like they just got back from church.
