Fong'd to the good guys this morning.

UK insider, Josh Edwards CBed Witten toOSU

Perhaps two TEs in '24? I think Witten is most definitely a "take" when he wants in, which is why the LeBlanc commitment kind of surprised me.

Birm and AE have been saying OSU will get 2 TEs in ‘24. He said the same thing in ‘23, but that was a weird year.

You dont really need 2 when your 1 is Jelani Thurman. We'll restock in 2024 because we'll lose at least one this upcoming year and maybe more if/when Thurman passing some on the roster and they look elsewhere.

Agreed but I think he was envisioning Thurman would join Lockwood last year

Matt Parker from On3 put in an RPM of 75% for Witten to OSU.

 

[ScriptOhio]

There are 3 Crystal Balls predicting he'll go to Ohio State.

 

[pnuts34]

OH TE Damarion Witten just got a pick to Kentucky at 60 confidence from a UK writer over at On3
As well as a Rivals FC to UK

Could be something, could be nothing. AE said its up to Coach Bailey

 

[pnuts34]

He looks more like a big WR than a TE at this point. Needs to put on some weight, but he looks really good in the pass game. He's definitely an offensive weapon. Would be interested to see him play against bigger S or hybrid LB/S like Garrett Stover

 

[pnuts34]

Per AG:

Told OSU loved what they saw from Witten. I expect a hard push and he’ll be a Buckeye at some point

Oh btw, he ran a 4.65 40 at the camp

This is funny, made even funnier by the fact that



I am 100% certain they were pitching the exact same utilization plan to Witten.

the two combined really highlights how disingenuous and/or outright manipulative Kentucky’s recruiting approach in this, and likely most, situations is.

I figured that's just recruiting in general. Because I'm sure when Alford and Day heard of SWD visiting UK, they made some calls to recruits who would replace him, before things were smoothed over.
