Marcus Hall in Wheeling, WV vs. Pitt. Thomas Jefferson

Saw MArcus play today has Glenville beat defending PA champion Thomas Jefferson 34-13. He dominated at times when he wanted to today. Glenville had a Soph running back named Robert Walton, Jr. who ran hard and looks like a future recruit.

ESPN - 2009 a down year for Ohio offensive skill prospects - Football Recruiting

Top recruit

Marcus Hall, offensive tackle

Glenville HS (Cleveland)
Considering: Illinois, Miami (FL), Ohio State, Michigan and others

It is rare that a state's top prospect is an offensive lineman, but it happened in 2006 with Andre Smith in Alabama. At 6-foot-5, 290 pounds, Marcus Hall is a powerful, mammoth-looking offensive tackle who certainly looks the part and can be an overpowering prospect at the point of attack. It should be no surprise that high school powerhouse Glenville is producing the state's top player, though usually its best are skill players like Ray Small, Ted Ginn or even Cordale Scott from the 2008 class.

It is kind of nice to see one of the "big uglies" get some top billing, and while Hall can be very raw and is further advanced as a run blocker as opposed to a pass protector, he does possess all the physical tools to be able to develop into a top-notch offensive lineman in college. We are not convinced he will end up at left tackle -- it will probably be right tackle and maybe even guard -- but his size and overall power is what intrigues coaches

Cue monacled Owl.......O RLY



Nice that he has that confidence, and may actually bode well for us.

Maybe that comment will keep the vets on the offensive line fired up.

If it does, thanks, Marcus.

 

[Hodgepodge]

Considering both backup tackles are out for the year, I don't think what Hall is saying is all that outlandish.
