DE Robert Rose (Official Thread)

[scarletngrey11]

what are the requirements to be in the game? i know you obviously have to be among the best in the nation but i also know that the whole top 100 isnt invited so do they jus pick or something?

I hope we land Rose, He's an absolute beast! What an addition it would be! Defensive ends make things happen....

do you think he stays put at defensive end or grows into a tackle?

i dont know about everyone else, but im guessing he stays at end. i dont think espicially as big as he and how big his arms are already is that he could put on enough weight to be big enough to stop in the middle. you also have to love the speeed this kid brings to the end position!

Thanks for the info fellas. I would like to see him as a matched pair with Worthington or Wilson. Can you imagine the havoc? He certainly seems to have the speed and size.

Ray Small and Robert Rose

With some of the best players in the state of Ohio on one team, Glenville is a favorite, once again, to make it deep into the playoffs this year. Robert Rose, Ray Small, Bryant Browning and Royce Adams are just a few big names that should not only help the cause this season but they will all likely be on a Big Ten roster at this time a year from now. Glenville has had 7 players receive scholarships to Ohio State in the past four years and could add at least a couple more this year.

Man, I hope we get Rose. Heacock and Fickell have to be salivating after looking at that kid. He is too big to be a high school senior, unreal. So much potential too.

 

[BuckBackHome]

What the hell are they feeding those kids in Glenville? They are huge. It is amazing how big high school kids are today. Small is not a little kid, but in between his teammates he looks tiny.

 

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Rose is a huge kid right now, just imagine what 1-2 years in OSU's weight program could do.

I have heard that he could move down to DT and after seeing those pictures, I can see why they would say that. Maybe there isnt such a need at DT afterall..... It would great to have a gap-plugging DT but I would love to have an athletic one as well, someone like a Richard Seymour or Marcus Stroud...

Robert says his top five is LSU, Illinois, Ohio State, Florida, and North Carolina with no leader. He says he will make the best decision for himself as all of the schools are saying the same thing.

Well, if he wants to have a realistic chance at a national championship ring, he can scratch Illinois and NC...

He was also talking to GatorBait...I'm sure the "wide open, no way I'm a lock to tOSU" was baited and removed from context somewhat.

Rob says he is focused on the Glenville season where he will play DE and DT. He keeps the same top five schools, maintains he is wide open, but also admits a love for tOSU.

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

...but also admits a love for tOSU.

He's ours to lose, IMHO...
