Heavy into Pa


Recommended Posts

Looking at Theinsiders.com site over the weekend, 14 of the 20 recruits listed on the Zips' radar are from Pennsylvania. At the golf outing, Pry also stated "We're gonna have a ton of kids from Pa." (in the next class)

A few more Brandon Payne's, Jason Taylor's, and Jake Schifino's would be great!

On an unrelated note: This Tyrell Sutton recruitment is really intruiging to me. He will be THE super-high profile HS player in the City next season. He'll average 200+ yards per game. He's presently waiting on some "big time" schools, but no offers as of yet. To me, he is the key Zips recruit for 2005. If he goes to Ohio State...ok, I'll deal with that. However, if he goes to BG, Toledo, Pitt, Minnesota or any other mid-BCS/upper MAC school, I'll be really disappointed. We MUST keep players like him "home."

There is supposed to be alot of kids with big time talent in PA this year. Hopefully JD and staff can make Akron a lot of kids first choice. But I agree Capn' Mr. Sutton would be a huge pick up. From what I read online OSU as of right now is not going to offer him a scholarship.

What I've read about Sutton has surprised me -- compared with the rave reviews from around the Akron area. He doesn't seem to be getting the high major attention you might expect. I would hope that the competition is just MAC schools, and perhaps Pitt or lower BE/ACC or thereabouts.

On a similar track: Jerell's brother is solidly #1 at RB in Ohio. Do we have any real shot at him? Most would take him over Sutton. Such a choice would be unimaginable in the LO era. Now, we can imagine, at least. B) The lights are getting brighter.
