Everyone loves to compare this kid to Santonino Holmes but I think the most accurate comparison I've heard so far as far as comparing talent at the high school level is Andre Debose...

Remembering Debose's film last year, that comment makes me VERY happy. His film was unreal. Wad, do you think James is as explosive as Debose, speed-wise? He just seemed to accelerate so quickly.

James certainly is a playmaker. Great get and I can't wait to see him in S&G!

Florida fans are talking about Debose being the next Percy Harvin. Let's hope those comparisons turn out to be legit.

Not wad but I don't think Louis is on the same level as DeBose...I thought DeBose was a top 10 player in the country last year, regardless of where the scouts had him. I see the similarities in style of play and Louis is certainly explosive, but not quite as much as DeBose.

Well said...James doesn't quite have the explosion that Debose has but he has extremely quick feet in and out of his cuts and is probably a bit better receiver than Debose, whereas Andre will probably be used as a much better athlete within Florida's scheme.

James Louis: Hunting Crystal (Inside The U)

Fans have heard some various stories of how it happened, but now that it has, how?d you become a Buckeye?
First things first, the Buckeyes have been in my top 3 schools from day one. So, I just sat down and talked some things over with my family and I felt like Ohio State was the best place for me.

Is your commitment solid or is there a chance you?ll sign elsewhere on National Signing Day?
My commitment is solid. Ohio State is where I want to be and that?s where I?m going to be for sure.

Now that you have committed, are you going to try and help recruit other players from Florida that OSU is recruiting?
Yes, there are a couple of great players in my area that are interested in Ohio State right now, [and some] just haven?t got an offer yet, but I?m going to try my best to tell my coaches to take a look at them.

Just reading between the lines that sounds really reassuring when he's referring to the OSU staff as "his" coaches already. Until now I wasn't sure he'd stick with us, but it's sounding good so far.:oh:
