Wow, this is a kid thats escaped my radar. I live in the area where he goes to school and i dont think ive ever heard of him. Perhaps this shows how deep of a class the '09 class really is or that ive been away at school for a semester =).
Coach Wolford im sure knows about him by now.
BTW, does anyone know how old Coach Wolford is, he looks fairly young in the picture that ive seen.
One thing thats guaranteed with this kid, academics wont be an issue. Glenbard West is one of the best public schools in the nation. Top 3% of public schools by Newsweek.

Wow OSU offered? That's iffy at best. I don't know why they would offer him. Maybe they're trying to make Illinois offer? He isn't even an early offer player for Illinois. I think OSU is reaching here. It's kind of confusing.....

The OSU staff never offers to force anyone's hand. If they offered, they like what they have seen and want him. Period.

He's a good player if you are looking for a center in this class.
Maybe Tressel is giving up on Ricky Harris because he doesn't want to compete with Zook on that one ...

Okay I've read he has a new round of film out that is quite impressive. I don't know we'll see. How about this though, trade Watt for Ricky Harris?

If what I read is right (Insider), Illinois might just offer Watt. Tells how much I know...
