10 Reasons not to worry courtesy of Andrew Ivins (CBJ = Cedric Baxter Jr.)

1. CBJ is a potential workhorse or feature back.
2. CBJ's 6'1,215# could eventually push 230# once he gets on a college strength program.
3.Plays for Orlando Edgewater, one of Orlando's top programs. Made varsity as a freshman.
4.All-State in 2021.Ran for 1,718 yds and 26 tds. and averaged 8.3 yards per carry.
5. Quickly picks a lane and hits the LOS with a full head of steam.Uses swift little cuts to elude defenders.
6. Capable of breaking multiple arm tackles and seems to always be falling forward.
7.Can get to the edge and win his fair share of foot races.
8. Could thrive on swing passes and make a difference in the screen game.
9. Has a chance to be an impact player for a College Football Playoff contender.
10. CBJ has NFL upside.

Maybe Baxter will be the choice? Or conversely, maybe OSU will be Baxter's choice?

Baxter is a 2023 recruit. This is the 2024 thread.

Not his fault. I originally posted in the wrong thread even after double checking that it was the 23 thread somehow. I’ve since deleted it but apparently not before Rick responded. So my bad. And Rick thanks for not jumping on my head for posting in the wrong thread by mistake.

All good! Hopefully nobody thinks I was jumping on him for being in the wrong thread. I was 2nd guessing and had to verify that Baxter was indeed a ‘23 kid.

I don’t think we need to chase in state DL for the class of 2024 cause of ttun…if he’s worthy of an offer he will get one

I think I worded it wrong, I didn't mean for OSU to chase Rudolph because of scUM. But more because I don't want them to get a lead in anyway in his recruitment(no matter how early it is)

Kinda still sounds like you’re saying the same thing to me but admittedly I’ve been up all night so may be wrong. I stand by that he will get an offer if he’s worthy of an offer, and would likely be after a few camps if he does

“The visit was excellent, and I was amazed at the things Ohio State had to offer,” the Mountain View (VA) standout sophomore stated to Land-Grant Holy Land soon after his trip to OSU last Friday.“I had a chance to take pictures in the uniform and we toured the shoe and the campus as well as the other facilities. Outside of just football, I really liked the Real Life Wednesdays they had for the team. It shows that the program cares about the players' future outside of football and their careers.”

While some of the staff were on the road either tracking down talent or celebrating now-former Ohio State greats such as Garrett Wilson and Chris Olave getting drafted, the 6-foot-2, 205-pound Jones had the chance to meet up with a pair of the Buckeyes' newest hires.

“I spoke with Koy McFarland and coach Matt Guerrieri. Coach Day was in Las Vegas and Coach Knowles was on a recruiting trip in Florida. But Coach G says he loves the way I play and how athletic I am at the linebacker position and wants to see me at a camp which I’ll be going to in June.”

“The programs that are really sticking out to me right now are Virginia, Virginia Tech, Penn State, Arizona State, and Notre Dame. As of right now, I’m looking for a school that’s gonna develop me not only on the field but off the field, and somewhere I can grow and hopefully get to the next level.”

So where does OSU fit? Just starting to build their relationship, the Buckeyes have yet to dish out an offer Kristopher’s way, but if they do, it won’t be something that the Virginia native will take very lightly.

“When I would watch college football (growing up),” he said, “Ohio State was one of the schools I would watch. Ohio State is a top program in the Big Ten and I could definitely see myself playing there. If I did get that offer it would really mean a lot to me.”
