It was posted on another web-site that Thaddeus is - ahem - very high on the Buckeyes and will eventually commit.

Can I say that here?
Sure, you summed it up. You can even give a hint as to who it was - :wink2: . Of course, we all know this guy has had just as many misses as hits. Fortunately, I cant name any Ohio guys he has missed on. There were several people on that thread that collarborated his story - at least the "vibes" they are getting from the field.

the only in-state guy gary has missed on that i recall has been fred davis, but i think everyone gets a pass on that one, much like wstripes gets a pass on the gwaltny mess. gary bit the bullet a bit in 04 when he was confident that james bryant was strong on osu as well as xavier lee and leon hart. i havent really seen him go out on a limb with oos guys since then. when it comes to ohio kids, especially NE ohio, i'll definately take his word.

Wow, he is a lot leaner than the other 2. He definitely needs to hit the weightroom for a season. For others wondering, the guy on the left is Jamaar Robinson and the guy on the right is Joshua Tatum who I believe is a nephew of Jack Tatum. Where is Gibson projected to play - SAM or WIL?

Ohio was well represented in the initial listing of Scout.com's National Hot 100 survey of college football prospects. The list features five Ohio players in the top 50, led by top running back choice Chris Wells of Akron Garfield (and Ohio State) at No. 3 overall. Click here for more.

An unprecedented 13 Ohio prospects are part of Scout.com’s initial National Hot 100 ranking of college football prospects.

The network released the list today, pegging Myron Rolle, a defensive back from Princeton (N.J.) The Hun School, as the nation’s No. 1 overall prospect.

Akron Garfield running back Chris Wells, an Ohio State verbal, is ranked as the nation’s No. 3 overall prospect.

Other Ohio prospects in the national top 50 include Cincinnati Colerain offensive lineman Connor Smith (No. 21), Pickerington North offensive lineman Justin Boren (26, Michigan verbal), Columbus Brookhaven wide receiver Jeff Cumberland (36) and Euclid linebacker Thaddeus Gibson (47).

Eight more Ohio prospects are included in the second 50. They are Coldwater linebacker Ross Homan (55, Ohio State verbal), West Chester Lakota West wide receiver Josh Chichester (60), Springfield South offensive lineman Lee Tilley (66), Springboro tight end Jake Ballard (68, Ohio State verbal), Cincinnati Princeton offensive lineman Aaron Brown (73), Clayton Northmont cornerback Kurt Coleman (81, Ohio State verbal), Cleveland Glenville wide receiver Ray Small (82) and Cincinnati Colerain linebacker Cobrani Mixon (84).

In addition to the four OSU verbals, Smith, Gibson, Brown, Small and Mixon are believed to have OSU offers. Chichester attended OSU’s Senior Advanced Camp this past Saturday.

With five verbals on the list, Texas is the only school with more verbals in the initial top 100 than OSU. Georgia checks in with three.

Wells, a 6-1, 220-pound bruiser who rushed for just shy of 2,000 yards as a junior, is the highest rated player to already commit. He edged out Pennsylvania’s LeSean McCoy (ranked 11th overall nationally) for the top spot among running backs.
