CB Gareon Conley (Official Thread)

So the Canton Rep article said that Ohio State was telling him he could be a receiver? That makes perfect sense to me. Given that tOSU seems to still be light on receivers and given that tOSU already has 2 highly rated corners give strong verbals, I can see why tOSU is recruiting him as a receiver. Linebacker, O-line, receiver - positions of need. I think I get it now. If Conley is not making it as a receiver and if tOSU runs short on corners, then hey, there is always the option for Conley to go back to corner if he wants.

If he commits, I can see him being used like a Chris Gamble type like Coqui said above. He'll come in a "wide out" but I'm sure he'll see both sides of the ball. Like Roby, it certainly helps if you can catch the ball as a DB because he has good hands.:oh:

It's because he didn't commit somewhere else. So there's still a chance for Michigan

Mike's right...the title specificially says "Massillon's Conley might be wavering on Michigan commitment" when in fact he has decommitted from them.

He's a better corner prospect, think it's the coaches just telling him what he wants to hear like Jalin.

Still have Gibson, Quick, Elder out there; I see a greater secondary need. Conley isn't a safety which is the bigger need but he gives us better options and can move Cam to safety. Plus we aren't in on any highly rated 2014 corners yet so Conley would be a big get.

Massillon?s Gareon Conley goes up for a shot over Kenmore?s Oshay Vinson during Tuesday?s game at Kenmore High School. The Tigers won 53-50.
l
AKRON ?

Massillon?s boys basketball team managed to avoid one of the rarest of all things on Tuesday night ? a rained-out season opener. The Tigers also managed to avoid an opening-night loss, holding off home-standing Kenmore 53-50.

However, the Tigers suffered a big loss ? at least for the short-term ? in terms of a leader on and off the floor, as Gareon Conley suffered what appeared to be a severe ankle sprain in the first half.

?I think that?s where true success is if you can develop young men to overcome adversity and handle the things that come their way,? Massillon coach Larry Taylor said after his team opened with a 1-0 record. ?... God bless Gareon; you?re sick to your stomach. But Gareon Conley?s the best competitor I?ve been around; one of the toughest kids. He?s going to want us to do what we just did in here right now. I don?t know if I?ve seen a group of kids go through that much adversity.?

It's time for OSU to get Conley
December, 6, 2012
By Brad Bournival | ESPN.com

The official visit of Gareon Conley (Massillon, Ohio/Washington) is an interesting one, as the ESPN 150 cornerback will spend a whole bunch of time one-on-one with Urban Meyer and his coaching staff.

While most of this weekend?s heavy hitters --Mike Mitchell (Plano, Texas, Prestonwood Christian) and Donovan Munger (Shaker Heights, Ohio/Shaker Heights) are expected in town -- will make their official visits beginning on Friday, Conley will not.

Because of the ACT test Saturday morning and a boys basketball game at Canton Timken later that night, Conley?s official visit actually started Wednesday night and runs through Friday.
