WVU on offensive lineman's list
By Mike Casazza
Daily Mail sportswriter
MORGANTOWN - There is something mysterious and borderline mythical about Chris Freeman, who quite suddenly has become one of the nation's most coveted offensive tackle prospects.
He has received no less than 20 scholarship offers, including one from West Virginia University he holds in high regard.
Jump on the Internet and search for facts about the mammoth lineman from Trotwood, Ohio, and it won't take long to learn there aren't too many tangible truths out there.
The list of colleges that reportedly have offered scholarships to the rising senior at Trotwood-Madison seems too good to be true, especially for a kid who doesn't have a traceable history in the sport.
His height ranges from 6 feet, 3 inches to a full six inches taller and his weight is listed anywhere from 290 pounds all the way to 350.
"There are a lot of articles I've read that say he's 6-7," said Freeman's father, Mike, who was a standout basketball player in Charleston in the early 1980s. "He was 6-6 in the eighth grade and he's grown since then."
Whether Chris would be a star never really was a concern. His mother, Mia, was a winner on the track at Charleston High.
From CaneSport....Will be visiting Wisconsin, Illinois, Miami, Florida State, Florida & Tennessee. Does not have any leaders at this point, but plans on cutting his list to a top 5 by the start of his senior season.
