A busy day has gotten even busier as Jonathan Hankins of Southeastern High School in Detroit has become the 16th member of the Buckeyes' 2010 recruiting class, according to Bucknuts.com (link requires membership).
Hankins, who measures at 6-3/310, is the first true defensive tackle commitment for 2010 and is the first member of this class from the state up north. He originally had some academic qualification issues, but those have supposedly been put to rest. He chose OSU over offers from Michigan, Alabama, Florida, Oklahoma, Virginia, and others.
The Buckeyes are hoping to land their second defensive tackle commitment when Shariff Floyd of Philadelphia, PA will make his announcement Saturday at the Army All-American Bowl in San Antonio, Texas.

310....damn
ahhhhhhh.........yet another victory over the Dreaded Hun.
Damn, it feels good to be a Buckeye!
I couldn't find this guy anywhere on rivals or scout. Anyone know anything about him. Ranking? (as if that means anything)
Never mind......spelled Johnathon wrong in the search.
I just have a really good feeling that Floyd ends up in Columbus. Is Henderson announcing on Saturday?
Just updated the post....For some reason they have him as a 3-star and espn has him graded at 77 but i take offers from Bama, Florida, and Oklahoma as meaning he is underrated....
Henderson is not announcing Saturday-I think he's waiting out till signing day, but it's us and USC with OSU on top for now. He will have in-homes and such and may take a 5th visit, but I like our chances. He would be a HUGE get
he definitely eats his wheaties and then some, eh?
and then some.
and then a bowl of lucky charms
forcier just threw up a little in his mouth.
What? No Tennessee? Lane run out of call girls? What is this world cumming to?
he's too busy practicing that mid-sack shot-put pass he's so good at.
he's all like "heeeyyyy"
crap, i'd be tempted to go to UT with those girls running the recruiting show and so forth
Southbay, you weren't tailgating at the Chandler School before the Rose Bowl by any chance, were you?
nah, i was on the golf course. next to a sand trap and an idiot oregon fan who lit his hand on fire trying to use GASOLINE to start his grill.
why do you ask?
I was at a private tailgate there with a bunch of LA-area Buckeyes.
i'm a man of the people, no private tailgate. ha
did you punch him and say "you gonna pay for the firefighters when you start a wildfire?"
and by Man of the People, he means he only golfs where a collar on your shirt is required
Because anything else, would be uncivilized
should have, stupid Oregonian with his duck call and 300 days of rain a year!
there was no golf being played on the golf course, just drinking and flip cup.
Matt James to announce this weekend. Kinda thinkin he's Notre Dame bound.

"The white Reggie Bush", 8 years old! Someone send Doc Tressel out to visit this kid!

Petey Carroll is already there with bag of unmarked non-sequentials
yeah he's going to wait it out...if it was this weekend it would be OSU....but he has visits to UC, ND, and possibly UF....I think this comes down to OSU and ND with ND winning out...I won't care as long as we get Henderson
Welcome to the family son. Blood in, blood out.
I hear that his potential is enormous but that he needs to lose a few LB's, put on some muscle and build some stamina.. he is the type of kid that can be molded and coached up..
THat was me by the way
:)
Had dinner with a couple USC fans from LA last night... They seem to believe that Henderson is a Buckeye when it's all said and done...
Would he be a bigger signing than Marcus Hall?
yep, you gonna think these stars mean nothing
when some of these coaches come starring.
Plus, he plays in flippin detroit!
gosh, oregon and football.
THEY JUST DON"T GO TOGETHER!
