My reaction when seeing the thread title.

EDIT- I checked the thread and I don't see any articles about him ever visiting. Has he visited Columbus yet?

If he plays on offense, I think we'll be hearing comparisons to Santonio Holmes. He's a little taller, but has the speed and shiftiness.

Hey, somebody had to be the first one to say it. :biggrin:

I even liked the football instincts he showed after he bobbled the snap in that highlight video on page 1.

James Louis - College Football Recruiting 2010 - ESPN

This young man can flat out run. He possesses some of the best quickness and acceleration of any receiver in this class and he can be a dangerous weapon in all three phases of the passing game. Louis has adequate size and while he doesn't look quite as tall as his listed height, he is a good leaper and exceptional athlete that can track the deep ball as well as anyone. He is very similar to last year's Andre DeBose, who is now at Florida. Can play inside or outside and gets off the line in the blink of an eye. Gets over the top of defenders in a hurry. He has a good feel for attacking coverage, is very quick in and out of his cuts and shows he can get separation. Eats up cushion and has stop-and-start ability for double moves with a burst off the cut that is rare. Gets into his routes quickly and shows outstanding burst in all his change-of-direction skills. He simply knows how to get open and once he is in space, you had better have 11 bodies running to the football because he possesses the ability to make two and three defenders miss in a small area. This is a guy that will win most footraces once in the open field. His hands are excellent and he has shown the ability to make acrobatic and leaping grabs on balls thrown outside of his catching radius. If he plucks on the move on underneath routes and catches a seam, look out. He catches away from his body, consistently protects the football and does a good job of getting up field immediately. However, this is a player that is not going to be an imposing threat or big red zone weapon. He must physically bulk up so that he does not get out-muscled at the line or versus tight coverage downfield. Overall, Louis can create mismatches and big plays. We expect him to develop into a premier pass-catcher at the next level. Outstanding prospect.

A commitment reported on the first page of a recruits profile!
Has this ever happened before?

BPers have only used 6 posts to debate, dissect, complain whether he is worthy of a vaunted tOSU scholie.

He only had 30 offers from D1 schools?
Stop this runaway coaching staff that has lost touch with its fanbase! :biggrin:
