Pointe blanked

North football shuts out South; wins sixth straight in rivalry game

?We obviously showed our inexperience on offense,? Brandon said. ?We have one senior starting on offense, and he?s out of position with Reid Fragel at tackle instead of tight end.

Grosse Pointe (Mich.) South defeated Port Huron (Mich.) Northern 21-13. Buckeye commitment Reid Fragel caught one pass for 15 yards. He also made nine tackles including a sack. South has three wins against three losses.

Sounds like Reid does some serious 'gittin' after it' on the defensive side of the ball, too.

Reid's been gittin after it since the spring

Seems like a guy who can carve his own niche when he gets to campus and find his spot in practice.

Apparently, in more ways than one. Seems this guys got some real hard bark on him.

ESPN - Programs must go national to find system-fitting players - Football Recruiting

Reid Fragel (Grosse Pointe, Mich./South), a recruit from Michigan who committed to Ohio State, recently criticized the Wolverines for being "disrespectful" toward prospects on their home terrain. In a Columbus Dispatch article, Reid said the fact that the Wolverines are concentrating so heavily on prospects outside the state is only going to alienate in-state prospects and help Michigan State.

The film clip is called "Reid Fragel rocks the competition" but it is only one clip of him catching a ball down the seam and taking it to the house. His combination of size and speed is evident. He looks to be a bit taller than Ballard but doesn't have the mass yet (give him a year in OSU's weight program). If he can keep that speed he could certainly be the next Ballard-type TE at OSU. His height alone is going to cause some mismatches and I did not expect to see that kind of speed from such a big kid.

He looks quite a bit faster than Ballard. He outran two DB's half his size and both looked pretty quick. He better enjoy it now because there's 4 years of blocking ahead of him.

Reid says this weekend reaffirmed everything for him and gave his Mom a chance to see why he wants to be a Buckeye.

Scout (free) -- Offense Defense: West Notebook

Tight Ends
Tough to tell a whole lot out of this group today. They did some blocking work and Reid Fragel really excels there. His technique, size and ability to move at that size makes him a great run blocker. He runs much better than a kid who is 6'8, 250-lbs should. He will surprise more and more people as a receiver as this week moves along. His counterpart, Ryan Hewitt is not the physical specimen that Fragel is, but he made a couple of nice adjustments on the ball.

Scout.com: Offense-Defense: West Morning Practice Notes

Maybe the offensive player of the morning? Reid Fragel. He erases whoever is across from him and pancaked a couple guys today. He also is the only player who can block Ty Phillips. Later, he showed he wasn't just a blocker, going high above a linebacker to catch a pass up the seam. After not getting many passes thrown his way this season, I expect Fragel to be a favorite target of the quarterbacks here.
