DL Chris Carter, Jr. (Official Thread)

Three weeks later than originally expected but that tells me the coaches did their due diligence, as usual.

Welcome aboard, Chris.

Appreciate the opportunity and make the most of it. :)

Chris Carter signs with Ohio State after hiatus - MaxPreps News

Cleveland-area lineman had to wait for legal situation to play itself out before signing.

Tuesday, March 01, 2011
By: Jarrod Ulrey | MaxPreps.com

Although National Signing Day was more than three weeks ago, one key member of Ohio State's 2011 recruiting class didn't officially come aboard until last week.

John F. Kennedy (Cleveland) offensive lineman Chris Carter signed a letter of intent to play for the Buckeyes on Feb. 24, increasing Ohio State's 2011 class to 24.

"I am glad to be a Buckeye," the 6-foot-6, 350-pound offensive lineman told the Columbus Dispatch.

Carter's signing was delayed because of concerns that arose from a legal situation Feb. 1. After an investigation, no charges were brought against Carter.

I know he came in late and there were some issues with his signing, but Chris is a Buckeye so shouldn't he get a Buckeye Leaf?

Thank you Mods!

Welcome to Ohio State Chris!

Weighs 390 now according to Fickell.
Did he not work out this summer?

Really disappointing.
OSU stuck their neck out after his issues and he reponds by getting even fatter, instead of taking it as a come to Jesus moment.

Tell me again why we offered him early and yet can't offer others because we need them in camp and then need to see films.
Or why Decekr wasn't even worth the time to send a form letter to and invite up for a meaningless hoops game.
I know "Trust the coaches" or "we have been great since he has been here". That has little bearing on the future and I think Bollman will haunt the future with his lack of interest in recruiting.

I cannot wait for Bollmans tenure to end after this year, which it will even if Fickell is retained.

Bottom line: We cannot count on Carter at this point.
