Rowell and Illinois seem like a great fit to me...and he is VASTLY underrated, largely because of his weight (around 330 from the last report...but he is supposedly committed to working on it). If we can get down around 300 he could be a stud along the Illini D-line along with Brent, Wilson and McCrary a few years from now.

Alright cool. I hope that your info is wrong BTW.
That's why I said I wouldn't mind Rowell. I've read for months he is quite the player but weight is holding him back from more offers and maybe a higher ranking. If Illinois gets him, I wouldn't complain in the least bit.

Whitner
I think Whitner's video is more impressive than any DT verballed in the Big Ten yet this year...
I'll gladly take tOSU's 'pass' on this guy ...
He looks nasty as hell ...
37 offers?
I'm not sure why the rankings are so low ...
I don't really care.
Sign him up.
Rotate him with Reggie Elllis, Josh Brent and D'Angelo McCray and go win the Big 10.

From O&B News...talks about looking forward to his visit to Illinois this weekend and says he and his Glenville teammates are not necessarily a package deal. Also considering Wisconsin, West Virginia, Purdue, Indiana, Maryland, Michigan State and Minnesota.

Dawawn says he could commit to Illinois this weekend but he has also scheduled visits to tOSU (1/11), WVU (1/18), Minnesota (1/25), and a final visit will be scheduled amongst Michigan State, Indiana or Nebraska.

Dawawn could not make it to Illinois last weekend due to his test scores not being posted in the Clearinghouse. He will reschedule the Illini for the end of January.

Visiting Illinois on 1/18 and probably OSU on 1/11. Will visit either Minny or WVU on 1/25. Illinois still leads.

Again, another false report from Ohio State boards that never happened.
Guess its moot now though, because it looks like Whitner isn't going to be going anywhere due to academics.
