By EDGYTIM...Josh added offers from Michigan and Missouri. Dick Tressel is recruiting Josh for OSU. They are reviewing his transcripts and he feels OSU is close to offering.

Both Rivals and Scout list him as a DE, but his Scout profile also mentions that he could end up at DT or OL (his Scout profile also lists him at 295, instead of the 280 Rivals has).

From the Illinois site...Josh originally wanted to play DE in college, but most schools are talking to him about playing DT. Coaches from Wisconsin and Ohio State were in school yesterday and OSU wants him to camp in Columbus this summer.

Add him to thei list of kids who could leave camp with an offer...

From EDGYTIM...Josh won the state title in the shot put this past weekend. Dick Tressel confirmed with the AD at his school that his scholarship offer to OSU is official. Michigan State was also in touch this week and offered.

Editing the title of the thread to reflect the offer...

Film:

My Take: Josh is almost a clone of Antonio Jeremiah. He uses his hands well but still needs to improve there. He moves very well laterally and plays much faster than the listed 5-flat. Definitely plays too high right now and overpenetrates recklessly at times...however, that may be a scheme philosophy so its not very concerning.

I agree with your comparison to with Jeremiah. I think he is much more explosive off the ball. I see him as guy that is going to move inside and be a force rushing the passer and moving the pocket, and maybe outside in a 3 man front dime package. I loved the speed he showed in being able to run down guys from behind.

From the MSU site...same list of schools that have offerd. He takls about chats he has had with Coach Moeller (MSU), Coach Ford (Mizzou), Coach Dick Tressl, Coach Zook (Ilinois), Coach Gundy (Oklahoma) and Coach Ferentz (Iowa). ASU, Virginia and Wisconsin have also been in to see him recently. He will likely camp at Illinois, Michigan and Ohio State.

Good news there...
