S Kurt Coleman (All B1G, All-American)

[OSUBasketballJunkie]

Coleman is a very interesting prospect that is under the radar right now, but I have a feeling other schools will be calling him in the fall. He could be the steal of the class if he verbals to OSU.

We move on today with our countdown of the Ohio High top 100 with players 11-20. On this portion of the list, we find a quarterback on the rise, a couple of the state's top overall athletes, and we start to get into the great offensive line prospects everyone is talking so much about. Click the link to read.

Coleman is considered the #11 prospect in Ohio for 2006. Lamb says he reminds him of EJ Underwood except with longer arms and bigger frame. He thinks he could be special.

Afetr watching his videos, he seems more like a safety prospect to me.
Great reaction to the ball, and it looks like he goeas all out on every play, I hope he comes aboard.

Max Emfinger's latest update lists Kurt Coleman as the #3 FS prospect in the nation.

Kurt Coleman^ 5-11, 190, 4.4, Canton Northmont, OH (OHST, WIS, BC, PUR)(Offers: All favorites)

It was actually fun looking through Emfinger's rankings. OSU seems to be in on a ton of solid players. Obviously many will not choose to be Buckeyes, but it sure is fun to imagine. We need to bring in Thaddeus Gibson!

By Kurelic...an interview with Kurt's coach, Lance Schneider. Kurt is up to around 40 offers, including the entire Big 10, save for PSU. Tennessee, Notre Dame, Kansas State and Georgia Tech are a few others that have offered. JT is due to visit Kurt on Friday. He will take a few visits, including trips to Iowa, Tennessee, Purdue, Kansas State and Ohio State.

While possibly slanted a bit, this was an extremely pro-OSU article based on one key statement by his coach...

Haha...you assume wrong, grasshopper...

Let's just say that these other visits may just be a formality of sorts...

I have been hearing positive vibes about this kid and OSU for awhile. I believe the great nevada said its a matter of when not if...

i think that is a judicious way of saying it. I dont know if his coach intentionally made the comment he did or if it was a slip of the tongue.

 

[Highstreet]

Thats pretty much the stance they have had since OSU has offered...

 

[tsteele316]

jeremy crabtree is calling coleman's coach a liar when the coach stated in a rivals update that kurt is up to around 40 offers.

Thats a pretty bold accusation "if true"......I don't think we (this forum) needs/wants to meddle in this type of "debate"......Kurt is a great player we want at tOSU, lets keep the focus on Kurt and leave that "bomb" alone....Anyways I could care less if tOSU was his only offer....???

 

[MililaniBuckeye]

ScarletFever is dead on...who gives a crap about the offer list? The thing is that OSU wants him and, apparently (I'm not a BN$ puke) he wants them...that is all that counts.

 

[wadc45]

To kind of put this to bed, in Kurt's defense Jeremy does go on to say that he is still one of the top 5 to 10 plyers in Ohio.
