Who are the remaining top dogs?

Robert Rose and Ray Small unless you already consider them on board since they are from Glenville and all.

Also Jeff Cumberland would be a very nice get, plug up that leak to Minnesota out of Brookhaven.

Rob Rose is the #1 need in this class. Pictures just don't do him justice. He is NFL ready right now, and he has a whole extra year of HS awaiting him.

Small, Wallace, Gibson, Brown, Moeller are on my short list... as those are guys we should get (Brown is a different breed tho).

Hornsby is someone we should keep an eye on... he has said in the past taht he really likes us more than what he often tells scouting interviews. He is hazell's #1 target (who recruited MWells, HS teammate), and will be getting an earful from Maurice all season. He wants to play early, and could make an impact as a big WR or a replacement FS (salley) if he lives up to the hype.

Ausberry is a big dog, but I really will wait to see if he is not a USC lock. I think we have an outside shot with him, but before visiting Columbus I think he's 90% USC.

Bryan Thomas is another playmaker out of FL at WR that we could use... and is favoring OSU.

Outside of Ohio, Wallace, Hornsby, Dublin, Reuland and the kid from Zephyrhills,FL would seem to be the #1 priorities for the staff now. Marcus Ball, the OLB from Georgia also seems to be keeping us in the mix. I'm sure some new names from Florida and Georgia will pop up in December/January.

i think we have a great chance with aj wallace. we already have him down for an official for one of teh biggest games of the year and have heard positive things about him in teh rumor mill. i still dont think we get hornsby, even tho he is a HS teammate of Mwells, im pretty sure he stays in florida

I agree with J Winslows take on Ausberry. He is more than likely a big USC lean but after a visit we have a good shot at him. But guys that we have a shot with that are left would go like this for me.
1. Hornsby (due to versatility)
2. Gibson (need LB's)
3. Brown (need OL and i believe he will end up being better than boren+smith)
4. Ausberry (just a stud can't pass the talent.
5. Reuland (just a stud we can use him well)
6. Ball (like his versatility and is a big stud)
7. Rose (big time Glenville stud)
8. A.J. Wallace( should be higher up because we need CB's too lazy to change it though)
9. Bowman (great LB and we need some bad)
10. Small(big time Glenville playmaker)
11. Schwartz(love his versatility and I made a # 11 just for him)

By the way Ball has kind of been quiet do we have a pretty good shot at him?
