Beat Moeller in OT to advance to state finals, that's 3 title appearances in a row for Springfield. They'll face St. Ed's yet again for the championship. Really incredible to see Springfield pull that off. Scott had a TD pass to win it from the article I read.

Really pulling for Springfield to pull this one off for the 937...I realize that is a long shot against St. Ed's, but it would be awesome to see Aaron head to Columbus with a state title under his belt. Either way, a Buckeye commit(s) is going to take home a D1 title.
Anyone know if there is a way to watch the game if you aren't in Ohio? Really would like to catch this one.

Too soon old, too late smart
Nice to see. Everyone has said he'd climb to 5* status, but great to see it. Also glad that there's been zero whispers about him being courted to flip. Makes for quiet stomach acid. tOSU is getting some pretty nice ingredients in the DB room, so hopefully the coaches can utilize to make a nice cake, and bring DBU back to C'bus. Go Bucks!

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
IMMEDIATE IMPACT
With Denzel Burke, Davison Igbinosun and Jordan Hancock all returning as starters and Jermaine Mathews Jr., Calvin Simpson-Hunt and Lorenzo Styles Jr. behind them on the two-deep, it'll be tough for any freshman defensive back to see significant playing time this fall.This means Scott's first year as a Buckeye will be used to grow off the field along with developing on it as well, all while learning from some of the best cornerbacks in the country in order to prepare himself for a bigger role as sophomore.
LONG-TERM IMPACT
Scott might not see much playing time in year one in Columbus, but it might be tough for OSU to keep him off the field much longer than that. Given his 6-foot, 185-pound frame along with his ballhawking ability, length, physicality and instincts, he has the skill set to make an early impact in Ohio State’s secondary.If he can put on a little more muscle before his sophomore season, Scott should secure a spot on the two-deep and could very well earn a spot in the starting lineup as a sophomore with Burke, Hancock and Igbinosun all potentially playing their final collegiate seasons this fall.
Scott is disruptive at the line of scrimmage and uses his instincts and ball skills to shut down opposing cornerbacks in the open field. If things go as planned, the Springfield product will be one of Ohio State's starting cornerbacks in 2025 and 2026 and become one of the next OSU cornerbacks to be an early-round draft pick.

I have a delivery driver at work who's close friends with Aaron Scott's dad(and watched "Lil Scott" grow up). And his dad said that he's having some frosh growing pains, and realized very quickly that he wasn't in HS anymore. And he sees the gap between himself and the older CBs, and at least knows that he can get there. But the speed and strength in college have humbled him. Mick runs the weight room like the military and breaks kids down and then builds them up

Yeah he is seeing Burke, Davison, Hancock, CSH, etc. and realizing the work it takes to get to the next level. He will get there and have his turn, but I think a year behind those guys will be a good thing for his overall development though. Lil Scott will do the work and then have his day.
