Captain Kangaroo Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 Did you know...that only one of the 2010 commitments has a GPA below 3.0? Expect the number of commits to slow, until about mid-season. The Zips are in the rare position of being selective. Thanks to "The Infocision Effect," a lot of quality kids want to wear the Blue and Gold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue & Gold Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 OhioVarsity.com ranks Nico Caponi as the 16th best LB in the state. They say that this year's LB class is stocked.NicoI like what they say about him: "Massive run-stuffer in the middle has a staggering 430-pound bench press." :blink:[edit]: Oh, and OhioVarsity.com ranks Chase Hoobler as the 7th best LB in this year's Ohio class. But we already knew he was rather amazing. Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZachTheZip Posted August 9, 2009 Report Share Posted August 9, 2009 So Captain, does the whole "being selective" thing include pulling offers from players at positions we're already good at, like QB? Stop showing interest and focus those resources on going after top players at a different position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop showing interest and focus those resources on going after top players at a different position?"Pulling and offer" has a bad connotation. When I hear that, I think of someone like Dennis Kennedy, whom Ohio State had committed a scholarship to...then yanked it VERY late.I think it is fair that if a kid gets a UA offer, and he says "Nah...I'll think about it", he accepts the risk that the offer may not be there forever. There are only a fixed number of scholarships available, and 5X that amount in offers.The two QB's committed to UA in this class are both excellent athletes. If QB didn't work out for them, I could see them in the secondary...running back...who knows. That said, I doubt we take another QB unless he was a knock-your-socks-off gift from heaven.

Zip N' Dots Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 Looks like we offered Zac Rosenbauer # 17 on the list, anyone know anything? Also, with Ryan McCollum (# 19) we are listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted August 11, 2009 Report Share Posted August 11, 2009 I see Pierre Carr is listed. I didn't think he was going to be on the roster until next year.Also, I thought I read somewhere that former Tallmadge RB Tyler Fortner was going to walk on. I'm a bit disappointed not to see his name listed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
