Bump.

If the '17 DB class comes in as expected I'd love to see him flip to the offensive side. Heard he was pretty special with the ball in his hands in bowl practice. At the least I hope he gets a crack at PR along with McCall.

It'd be interesting to see what he could do at HB if Samuel leaves, essentially leaving us with McCall and Campbell only

We really need some play makers on Offense. If he can give a spark to the Offense without hurting the depth on D then its definitely something the coaches should consider.

Ohio State's Zone-6 picked up a new recruit Tuesday afternoon: Safety and special teams ace Eric Glover-Williams.

Glover-Williams, a 2015 four-star signee from Canton McKinley, drew rave reviews during Fiesta Bowl prep for mirroring Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson's running.

Chris Worley said he, Marshon Lattimore, and Malik Hooker lobbied coaches to try "EGW" on offense. With Zone-6 needing playmakers and experience, it looks like they'll get their wish.

For people like myself, who were clamoring for a Lynn Bowden offer, no need. His clone was already in S&G! Surprised this move wasn't done earlier, but I guess with Wilson and Campbell behind Samuel it didn't need to be. Can't wait to see EGW and McCall at the HB

These moves rarely ever work out. I'd be surprised if they take him away from practicing the position he's been at since he's been here, to start over at HB or WR.

It's not like you stop being a playmaker because you play on the defensive side of the ball. I think that EGW has always been an offensive guy at heart, and that ball hawking ability is what made him so dangerous. I doubt he has lost any explosiveness. HB doesn't rely upon much route running, but every bit as much RB as WR. I see his passes being more of the screen and slant variety with an occasional deep post when the QB sees a mismatch with a LB
