Couldnt of said it any better myself. At this point I am not sure where I would peg him WR/TE.

Either way I really hope he gets an offer...he is one of my favorite prospects for the '08 class (along with Pryor and Tate [and of course all the great OL]).

DUBLIN COFFMAN 17 WESTERVILLE SOUTH 10
Resilient Shamrocks refuse to crack

Westerville South?s Ryan Clark gives a forearm to tackler Robbie Brown of Dublin Coffman in the first quarter.
As players from Dublin Coffman and Westerville South lined up to shake hands at midfield after the game last night, it resembled the finish line of a marathon.
Both teams had gone the distance and both had nothing left to give.
In a game loaded with turnovers, penalties, big plays and huge swings in momentum, the Shamrocks hung on to edge the Wildcats 17-10 in the first round of the Division I playoffs at South.
"I feel fortunate to get out of here with a win," Coffman coach Mark Crabtree said. "They certainly had their chances to win the game. In the end, we did what we had to do."
South (8-3) had a chance to force overtime when it got the ball for the final time with 3:23 remaining.
Sacks by linemen Austin Hedderly and Tyler Carr and linebacker Mark Hogan put the Wildcats in a fourthand-22 situation, and an acrobatic catch by B.J. Cunningham at the Coffman 48 was 2 yards short of a first down with 21 seconds left.
It was that frenetic as South came on strong after falling behind 17-0 on touchdown catches of 14 and 25 yards by John Ratliff and Jake Stoneburner from quarterback Zak Kristan and a 23-yard field goal by Justin Baltzer.
"I felt like even though they were leading, they didn?t stop us," Wildcats coach Rocky Pentello said. "We stopped ourselves. I told the defense if they picked it up, we?d scored. They picked it up. But you can?t have that many turnovers in a playoff game."
South wasted scoring opportunities in the first half with a fumble that was recovered at the Coffman 8 by Jordan Bowdy and an interception in the end zone by Scott Stucky.
Behind sophomore quarterback Cortez Fleming, the Wildcats came back on a 32-yard field goal by Eric Gerhart with 3:37 left in the third quarter and a 5-yard run by Ryan Clark with 11:55 left in the fourth quarter.
Cunningham was a factor in both scores. The drive for the field goal started with his interception in the end zone. He set up the touchdown with a diving, one-handed 25-yard catch of a pass from Gerhart on a flea-flicker.
"We didn?t put our heads down when we got down," Cunningham said. "We stayed into the game. When we got that field goal, we knew we could score two touchdowns. We gave it everything we had."
Coffman (8-3) had three turnovers and was penalized seven times, but it didn?t fold. Tailback Steve Gardiner ran for 127 yards, Kristan threw for 168 yards and the defense never broke.
"In the first half, we came out throwing, running and gunning," Stoneburner said. "Then in the second half we got pinned back inside the 20 a lot and we never got momentum. I wouldn?t say we dodged a bullet, though."

DUBLIN COFFMAN 35 GAHANNA 23
Fairchild struts his stuff for Coffman
Shamrocks score three of their touchdowns after forcing turnovers

KYLE ROBERTSON DISPATCH Dublin Coffman?s Trey Fairchild sails down the Gahanna sideline in the first quarter to score one of his three touchdowns.
Coaching the Dublin Coffman offense can be similar to playing with the television remote with the full cable package. There are so many players to choose from and only one football.
Last week, receiver Jake Stoneburner and tailback Steve Gardiner ran wild in the Shamrocks? win over Westerville South.
It was receiver Trey Fairchild?s turn yesterday, and he ran with the chance by scoring on runs of 65 and 7 yards on option plays and catching a 25-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Zak Kristan in a 35-23 victory over Gahanna in a Division I regional semifinal in Upper Arlington?s Moorehead Stadium.
The Shamrocks (9-3) defeated the Lions (8-4) for the second time this season by scoring touchdowns off three turnovers, including twice in the second half, to blow open a close game.
Coffman coach Mark Crabtree didn?t realize Fairchild was having that big of a day.
"To be honest, that didn?t hit me until late in the game that he was touching the ball that much for us," he said. "The thing about our offense is that when the quarterbacks are on, we can move the ball. Our quarterback position is a little bit different than other teams."
Fairchild understands that with so many skilled players, it must be share and share alike.
"It?s a different player every game for us," he said. "We didn?t run the option a whole lot this season, but we worked on it this week. Those plays just worked."
Kristan, a senior, was 14 of 23 for 141 yards. Backup Zack Stoudt, a junior, was 5 of 7 for 47 yards.
Coffman led 21-17 when Gahanna self-destructed on two straight possessions. Three plays after Jordan Bowdy recovered a fumbled punt, Fairchild caught a pass in the end zone on third-and-21 for a 25-yard touchdown with 4:09 left in the third quarter.
"It was a perfect ball by Zak," Fairchild said. "The blocking was great, too."
On Gahanna?s next series, Gardiner returned an interception 31 yards to the 12 to set up a 1-yard sneak by Kristan that made it 35-17.
"Those (turnovers) just set us up," Kristan said. "You can?t ask for much more from the defense than that."
The offense also didn?t miss a beat despite a stiff wind and light rain.
"We have so many people on offense ? so many people," Kristan said. "Our playbook is ridiculous. We have so many plays and so many options. We have so many checks. It?s awesome. It?s fun."

4.55 at 220lbs-give that boy an offer! WR or TE, if that weight is correct, he is the same size as the rest of the top TE prospects in Ohio for next year. A coach I know at Coffman told me a month ago that the Buckeyes were interested in him.

He put up some pretty big numbers last year. Gotta be a huge mismatch at the HS level. If the speed is legit he'll create mismatches in college too. Just a ton of talent in OH next year between Jake, Moore, Rudolph, and DeLillo
