I'd like to hear some quotes from him on his feelings about the OSU offer. He had some not-so-pleasant things to say about OSU not all that long ago because they hadn't offered him yet.

Congrats on the offer LaTwan!!

Disagree with you here. Big time. LaTwan is an absolutely incredible athlete who could play CB or S or even WR at a high level, and USC would have already offered him if it we weren't already set at DB and it there weren't some underlying issues and questions in his recruitment.



Hicks, that's a definite maybe as I believe he is also a Top 25 national recruit like LaTwan. Norwell? Nope, not even close.



Again, you are way off base here. Justin Turner was without a doubt the top senior college football prospect in Ohio last year. Rivals is not the only national recruiting service that named him as such, just about every national recruiting service did.

Turner was simply prolific throughout his high school career, and his versatility was amazing. His size and his raw skill are amazing for a CB prospect. You know, 6-foot-3 athletes that can play CB in college do not grow on trees. Turner is an extreme rarity at CB.

Hall was approaching Turner's level as a prospect but still not quite there, and Wood wasn't even in the same leauge.



And....they were right. Now that Jermaine Greshman of Oklahoma is out for the season with an injury, Kyle Rudolph is the best TE in the Nation. Rudolph will go pro after next season and be a 1st round draft choice.

They do know about LaTwan's issues, all about them, but his are miniscule in comparison to Turner's issues. Turner will be lucky as hell if he ever sees a college football field.

LaTwan still has a shot in '11 if he doesn't make it this year, and with Teddy Sr., guiding him now I have a lot of confidence in his situation. Teddy is a great guy, and he'll really go to bat for LaTwan like he does all of his kids.



And....they might have been right on that as well as Zebrie Sanders started 12 of 13 games for FSU last year at RT as a true freshman and will be an anchor for a very good FSU line again this year, and he looked great on Monday night against Miami.

I'm sorry, but there is not a player in the state better than Norwell, regardless if he was coming here or anywhere else. I have been on the record about that since I saw him live last year. Hicks and Norwell are the top players in the state and to me, there shouldn't be any question about that. Anderson is a fantastic player but I don't think he is better than Milliner, Joyner, etc., so I don't think he is a 5 star. I do think he is a great player though and I really want him in this class if he keeps his nose clean.

Turner was good on film but the couple times I saw him, I wasn't that impressed. Sure he was physically impressive but I wanted to see him be a little more dominant.

Again, on Adams...he has a long way to go. Sure, Rudolph is one heck of a player but when in high school, nobody would have only had him as a 5 star. Posey and Adams were certainly deserving on the ranking and have a LOT of football left to play.

Congrats on the offer though LaTwan!

I haven't seen his game film, but his big play potential is through the roof. His ball skills, speed and hit power all near the top of this class. If his consistency comes anywhere close to matching his ceiling, he is going to be a special player.

Also, now that he has his offer does the BPRT feel confident in OSU's chances?

Congrats on the offer LaTwan!

Apparently there are conflicting reports on the offer...sounds like Bill's info is as solid as can be and has not only been confirmed by Latwan but also the Glenville staff...but another source is disputing the offer.

I'm being told same thing someone else said (but I'm having trouble finding the post, maybe it was in the Bryant thread?), but my WVU guys have left me messages saying their staff was furious and that Latwan has verballed to OSU, and that Christian Bryant gave a silent as well but still plans on taking his OV's. Reminds them alot of their ordeal with Troy Smith, let's hope it has the same results :)
