LB Larry Grant (Official Thread)

Wow! Impressive numbers.

Maybe he'll be the "sleeper" recruit. Kind of hard to be a "sleeper" while being a 5 star, but given the fact that he's JUCO and had already said he was a Gator.........

 

[lagunasurf]

We are taking a "look see" Don't get too excited just yet. Just know that we are leaving no stone unturned. Again, buckle up boys. It's could get fast!

FWIW, I just checked this guy out on rivals, and his lists OSU as high and every else as no interest... I know that recruiting sites arent also accurate with a prospects list of schools of interest, but I found that interesting.

 

[Catfish Biff's]

Chris Vance worked out pretty well, lets hope this does too.

True. Anthony Schlegel did as well, and while he was a transfer, the effect is still the same--we got a good player for two years.

This is interesting to follow...

If we land Grant along with Small, Browning etc. this will be one of the strongest closings we've had in years (barring last minute changes). This class will excite me the most since MoC's class. Tress continues to just make it happen.

Very intriguing prospect. Look like a great talent and must be if Florida wanted to add him into their class. This would be a great pickup if he can get in.

 

[buckeyeinfla]

went reading some of the Florida boards and they have all but written him off as becoming a Gator..This kid could come in a play right away in my opinion..

 

[buckeye247]

I was also looking at a couple of recruiting websites. Most of these websites arent to accurate. But rivals was listing him as only being interested in tOSU like scarletngrey77 said. Anyone have any info.

 

[crazybuckfan40]

I think this is a good move if the staff feels that he can come in and crontribute right away. We have open schollies and some college experience while it may be at JUCO would help. He has nice size and looks like great speed. If we get him I will be happy if not well it will be ok too.

 

[buckeyeinfla]

his speed was unreal..def. sounds like a kid that could
play ASAP at LB..

By Bill Kurelic...Grant says OSU is reviewing his transcripts. He will likely choose between OSU and TAMU. He is working with coach Fickell to get an official visit set up.

 

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Historically, JT hasn't gotten involved to much with JUCO players, so Grant must be a special kid on and off the field to get some attention from the staff.

 

[osugrad21]

I believe Chris Vance may have been JT's only JUCO

 

[Mothra]

wasn't Jack Tucker brought in w/ Vance?

 

[LitlBuck]

Didn't Ron Springs come from San Francisco CC or was that another CC out in California?
