CB Travis Howard (Official Thread)

[OregonBuckeye]

I don't think the Howard offer has anything to do with Scruggs and Rowell...I think the only thing this does is maybe take the Harris offer off the table.

Think Harris will still take an official?

Congrats on selecting the Bucks. Welcome to the family Travis.
:osu:

Doubt it...but I have no info on that as of right now.

Either way, I don't think most had much optimism there before this offer/verbal.

Now the question is, is Howard low-profile enough to ensure he'll be a success like the rest? (Laur, Wash, Jenks, Russ, Robo, Chekwa, Heyward).

No kidding! These are exactly the types of recruits that absolutely thrive at OSU. Welcome, Travis!

Congrats to Travis. It's not very often that tOSU snags a Miami kid w/ an offer from DaU'! Travis sounds like the kind of kid that will fit in well on the team.

More confirmation and quotes.

More confirmation and quotes.

For those making the parallel with Chekwa and other less heralded, but ultimately great players - the following quote is telling ..

Krop assistant coach and former Florida State star Lamont Green is sold on Howard, saying the two-year starter is "our best football player."

That does sound very, very familiar.

Welcome to the promise land Travis!








Now who's going to tell him that he just added .2 seconds to his 40 time by coming to Columbus?:p

Eye on the U | Canes lose out on Sabino, Howard

talks about howard's commitment to OSU.

Also states that Sabino is down to OSU and USC.

I certainly like OSU's chances in a 2-horse race with miami and unc out of the picture.

 

[Buckrock]

Great get by the staff. Now let's get Sabino!!!!

 

[Hubbard]

Also does this have anything to do with Woods? We heard he maybe a soft verbal now, but haven't much after that.

 

[matcar]

Awesome!

Bill Greene/ G. Powers at Scout are reporting that Howard has been offered and is a Buckeye.

Welcome Mr. Howard!


Awesome job by the Scout guys being all over this!

Wow, you leave a couple hours and then this! Sweeeeeeet!!!
