Love both...but OSU needs quality OL to finish out the class.

What we "need" and "want" aren't always the same :)

I know we "need" OL bad. Heard rumblings Meyer was shocked at how low we are on OL. I am sure he is targeting at least two more at that position...with few spots left to hand out overall.

Isn't he also a coach there, at least in some capacity? I thought I remembered hearing something about that with the recruitment of Darius Jennings.

His thread was updated last week to say that he's now an investment banker in Baltimore. I don't know whether or not he's involved with Gilman in some capacity.

I believe that's accurate. Gilman.Link (If it were Stan, Jr. on the staff; the year of his graduation would be listed, so it must be his dad).

Stan (Sr) was an All-American at tOSU, and played in Ohio all-star games in baseball, football, and basketball back in the 60s. He was a solid LB for the Colts in the '70s, and now does the Ravens games on radio with Gerry (not the other Jerry) Sandusky.

OK, back to Cyrus.

Gilman's Jones named Md. Gatorade Player of the Year
December 01, 2011|By Katherine Dunn

Gilman?s Cyrus Jones has been named the Maryland Gatorade Football Player of the Year.

The senior, rated the No. 34 senior recruit in the country by ESPNU, was honored for his football achievements as well as his academic success and character, according to ESPN High School, which announced the 50 Players of the Year on Thursday morning.

Jones, a versatile 5-foot-11, 185-pound multi-threat player, excelled on both sides of the ball in leading the No. 1 Greyhounds to a 9-1 season and the first MIAA A Conference championship game victory, 34-32 over No. 2 Calvert Hall in double overtime. In that game, Jones scored all Gilman?s points in the two overtimes.

The fourth player from Gilman to be named Gatorade Player of the Year, Jones follows Darius Jennings, who won last year. He is a candidate for national Player of the Year, which will be announced this month.

?Cyrus Jones is one of the most dynamic prospects in this class when it comes to versatility," ESPN national recruiting director Tom Luginbill said in a news release. ?He can play just about any skill position on the field, and he has tremendous cover corner traits. He?s quick, can transition, has ball skills and is extremely competitive.?

Jones has not decided where he will play in college. Wednesday, he said he would reconsider Ohio State after the Buckeyes hired Urban Meyer as coach. He is also considering Alabama, Auburn, Maryland and Virginia Tech.
