S Zach Domicone (Official Thread)

Initally after looking at his stats, I was ready to say "not impressed". But, after watching his full clip, I LIKE HIM. Thoughts.

- He is a true ATH prospect. He's shown in the clip as a QB 90% of the clip.
He has a decent arm, not much zip to his pass and poor decision making. It didn't really matter in this competiton...but would get him in trouble in higher competition. But then again he runs the ball 80% of the time.

- I love the fact that he seems to have no fear. He runs like a bull on the loose. He has a great burst of speed. He uses some cutbacks but likes to try and run over or through defenders, dropping his shoulder.

- He plays with great intensity. He goes all out. Made some big stops on the limited D shown. A guy that won't stop untill the whistle blows.

- I think they show him even punting the ball a good 50+ yards.

- It's tough to know where he would play, and maybe thats why the delay. The clip doesn't show enough of him on defense. He'll have to be taught a posistion. He will be one hell of a special teams player though.

- My favorite play is where he's getting sacked and throws a 60 yard td.

If they find him a home, he'll be a great find. He will for sure be a special teams superstar at worst.

Beavercreek's Domicone now headed to Ohio State

BEAVERCREEK ? Ohio State won't play another football game until this fall. But the Buckeyes have already beaten Nebraska and Oklahoma.
In a classic whirlwind college recruiting tale, Beavercreek High School senior Zach Domicone went from committing to Nebraska to Oklahoma to OSU. And that was just on Friday.
"After school, I was told (OSU) coach (Jim) Tressel wants to talk to me," said Domicone, a versatile and speedy 6-foot-3, 215-pound defensive back.
"I'm freaking out at this point. He says they've got a scholarship waiting for me at Ohio State. I was speechless. I didn't know what to say. It came out of nowhere."
Originally headed to Ohio University, he was lured to Nebraska when former OU assistant coach Carl Pelini joined his brother, newly named head coach Bo Pelini, at Lincoln earlier this week. That sparked interest from rival Oklahoma, which wanted Domicone to visit on Friday.

Beavercreek's Domicone picks up offers from Ohio State, Oklahoma
By Steve Helwagen, Editor in Chief

There will be a new addition to Ohio State's official visit list this weekend.

It was at midday today when Ohio State coach Jim Tressel called Beavercreek (Ohio) High School and not only asked quarterback/safety Zach Domicone to visit OSU but to also consider a scholarship offer.

Domicone (6-3, 215, 4.47) agreed to make a visit to OSU beginning on Saturday. This capped an amazing sequence of events that began earlier this week, when the Dayton Daily News reported that new Nebraska coach Bo Pelini was interested in Domicone.
The article confirmed that Pelini, formerly the LSU defensive coordinator, had called Domicone prior to Monday's BCS National Championship Game. Oklahoma, upon reading the article, called Beavercreek coach Scott Clodfelter earlier Friday and asked if Domicone would be available to visit this weekend.

Ohio State then followed suit just a few short hours later.

"It has been a crazy day," Domicone told Bucknuts.com, "but in a good way. My head is in a whirlwind. It is a little bit overwhelming."

...

When asked if a commitment is possible, Domicone said, "If it's what I expect it to be - and my dream has always been to play at Ohio State - I probably would commit."

I'll see what I can find out on Domicone (looks like he'll be a Buckeye but as far as how fast this progressed)...pretty sure I've hung out with him before. I know some local guys were fairly high on him but I never thought Zach would get an OSU offer. Either way, it's cool to see another Dayton area Buckeye.

Zach is most definitely 6'3 cause hes as tall as i am and i'm 6'3. i am from dayton and beavercreek (where he played) is a suburb of dayton. my cousin played football for beavercreek and i know zach pretty well. he is 6'3 and has committed to OSU. they were his first choice and he was hoping they would offer to him, which they did today. he has committed to tOSU. hes a smart kid and a great athlete so he will make a great safety for us. im trying to get ahold of him now but my cousin has talked to him and he WILL be at osu.

There was another safety ready to attend Ohio U until Ohio State stepped in late with an offer. His name was Donnie Nickey.

After watching his film, I thought of Nickey also Cleve. Long, athletic and fearless, that is a pretty good combination. No matter how many five star super studs you have, you need some guys who bleed S&G and always have, when they have brains, heart and athletic ablilties to boot, sign em up.

Don't know how fast he is but at 6-3, 215lbs. he could make one heck of a wide reciever.

Timed at OSU and Akron's camp in 4.47. I never have a problem with offering a kid who is 6-3 210 and runs a 4.47 and shows decent instincts. Teach him the rest...

I see a future OLB...in the mold of Cie Grant possibly.

You can't go wrong with going after kids that have size and can run. If you going to miss..You want it to be with these kinds!
