just read about this. his star ranking is going to climb. how he is only a 3 star is beyond me. Paris gets all the love around here, and deservedly so, but this kid can play and you cannot teach that size. Legit 6-5, 270lbs. frame is there. work ethic for days.
Ohio? check.
blue collar? check.
OL? check.
key recruit from Elder? check.

love it!

His offer list is good too! Basically every big ten school and some SEC schools too.

Big win for us as it's 1) a big ten prospect 2) a big position of need and 3) a Cincinnati kid

Great news. One thing I think that has been undervalued is Meyer's recruiting of Cincy. If I recall, Tress did "OK" in Cincy but Cooper was not good. It's encouraging to see Day landing good Cincy talent.

Not every OSU recruit is under rated. This one is.

Hinted at this in another thread last week but didn't think it would go down quite that fast. You just know this was the offer he wanted.

I was on the fence originally because he seemed like a center or nothing this time last year. But seeing how he has filled out and added some length, this is a kid I am glad they offered.

Massive understatement. Tress virtually ignored all recruits south of Dayton. So glad that Meyer corrected that mistake

So, to circle back on this.......do you see him as a OG or OT?
