Camp Offers (Archive)

[jwinslow]

A discussion about the high success rate for OSU camp offers triggered this archive of who OSU offered at camp.

1. Feel free to list others who were offered at (or soon after) camp to help fill out this list. I'm just starting.

2. Should we limit it to the week after camp, or should we include guys offered within a month? For instance, Tyler Moeller grabbed many offers based on camp performances. OSU came through a month later with one.


Senior Camp Offers (in progress)

04 - Vernon Gholston
05 - Brian Hartline, Malcolm Jenkins , Lawrence Wilson
06 - Tyler Moeller
07 - Boom Herron , Devon Torrence
07 - Dane Sanzenbacher
08 - ?
09 - Adam Bellamy
10 - Taylor Graham
11 - Devin Smith ,
12 - Najee Murray , Luke Roberts , Greg Garmon (Verbal Offer)

2. Should we include underclassmen? In the past, the term "camp offer" referred to soon to be seniors like Luke Roberts, but with recruiting starting (& finishing) much earlier now, many "camp offers" are targeting soon to be juniors instead.

What about kids who's recruitment kind of started with attending tOSU camps? Would a guy like Bradley Roby count? Though he wasn't offered until December of 2009, he was more heavily recruited (and a Vandy commit in the summer) after the camps.

Was Sam Longo a camp offer? Or a Chris Watt is going elsewhere offer?

After camp they told him to be patient as they continued evaluating him and the senior advanced camp. They came through a few weeks later, but I'm not sure that was a clear cut case of earning an offer at camp.

That's an interesting question. I would say no for the purpose of the list, but guys like that are why camps are so important. I'd be curious what others think.

I'm also leaning towards removing rising underclassmen from the list since it includes so many, especially now with summer camp somewhat becoming the "Sep of junior year" period for the first wave of offers.

I think I've completed my research, but others feel free to list others that you know about (especially from the years when camp coverage was sparse).

That's a pretty incredible hit rate. Every player was very good or better on that list, with the exception of Lawrence Wilson, who was plagued by injuries (and contributing very early in his career before them).

I swear Moeller is an 06 recruit. and Boom is 07.
