Trey DePriest (former LB Alabama)

I'll take that to the bank! :)


I'm sure all parties have some quality sources. Having said that, I've never been worried about DePriest, if for no other reason than that it has been too early in the recruiting game to be concerned with the home team losing out. I have no idea where Trey will end up, but I've always assumed that the day would come when the Buckeyes would be looking far more favorable.

Rivals $ - Decision coming soon for DePriest

7/13

From the Alabama site...Coach Cupps says Trey has said he may be ready to decide soon...says if he heads to Alabama it will be beacuse of his relationship with Coach Sunseri and the fact he has remained in contact with '11 verbal Vinnie Sunseri.

Only mention of OSU is that he didn't make a planned visit there after his trip to Alabama...:roll2:

Another analyst who thinks the tides have turned (no pun intended)...

Ohio State is now considered the team to beat for five-star linebacker Trey DePriest. Alabama was once thought as the front runner.

The battle for Trey DePriest is very intense right now. OSU believing he stays, Bama thinking he is heading to Tuscaloosa.D-Day coming soon.

Why were you guys ever worried?????:osu:

Bc Trey was a huge Bama lean at the beginning of spring. OSU has made up a ton of ground and (as expected), the GWOC connections are in his ear on the reg. It will be interesting to see what happens. Regardless of who he chooses, he WAS a Bama lean at one point. I have always said I would love to be wrong and miss on my first GWOC prediction...Trey just may do that.

Ohio State has momentum
2011 LB Trey DePriest

The good thing about the Trey DePriest watch is that the four-star OLB from Ohio is expected to announce his decision by the end of the month, according to Bucknuts.com, which means we won't have to wait until near signing day as we did with his 2009 Ohio counterpart, five-star OLB Jordan Hicks.

That said, all the talk in recent days has DePriest cooling on longtime favorite Alabama and warming up to the Ohio State, where he would play with childhood friend QB Braxton Miller. One source told Bucknuts: "It's not a done deal, but it's a done deal. He's in the fold" for the Buckeyes.

Still, an Alabama-based source told Bucknuts that the Tide staff remains "extremely confident" that DePriest will choose Bama.

The longer this drags out, the better for Ohio State, it would seem, since presumably DePriest would be giving the Buckeyes the time they needed to make up ground.

Springfield (Ohio) High linebacker Trey DePriest is close to making a decision, and Alabama looks like his destination. DePriest has cancelled a trip to Florida for "Friday Night Lights" and never made an expected trip to Ohio State. Alabama linebacker coach Sal Sunseri is recruited DePriest and has done an amazing job with the out-of-state prospect.
