I live in Indianapolis and saw gardner play carmel last year. Carmel went on to beat Warren Central and win the state titel. Gardner is a Big, Physical, Mean, etc type of player. Does need some work on staying low but this is probably a guy who will benefit a great deal from marrioti program.
There is some pretty good football schools in central indiana. Warren Central, Carmel, Center Grove, Ben Davis are always playing for the state titles.
DMurder Indianapolis schools do as well as they do because they have an enrollment of over 4000 kids. The actual number of schools with 3500 students or more in Indiana is 18 and they are all but 3 in Indy. That makes the state championship field thin very thin compared to Ohio. The new super class is a joke because it includes 10 schools with 2000 students. How can any school with 2000 students compete against Indy schools at 4000 plus? Can't do it. I feel its also why guys like Gardner could fall thru the cracks, unles he is an absolute stud. Indy plays some tough football i.e Cathedral winning at Ohio Stadium is an example. If Urban offered then someone scouted this kid and likes him bad.
I guess that is why i posted "There is some pretty good football schools in central Indiana". I travel the state of Indiana for work and there are a bunch of small towns. Except for Evansville, Gary, Merrylville, Fort Wayne.
I personally live right by the biggest school in Indiana which is Carmel. 4600 students enrolled there which means you have to be pretty freaking good to play high school football there.
Obviously a state that has 12 million people is going to have better football competition than a state that has 6 million people. I was just simply saying central Indiana plays some good football do i think it's better than Ohio. NO

For him to have lost 20 lbs in just a couple months is true testament to how much he wanted it. Not to mention, his drill coaches at FNL is similar type of lineman I can see Tim "becoming" bc he has a long way to go (I can see him looking like LeCharles Bently or may be even Orlando Pace). Keep in mind, I'm not saying he's there yet, but those guys saw something in him as did the coaches. 6-5 320 and can move like he does on his films...I'd say nice pick up for sure.

Great pickup. The guy is HUGE!! You cant teach size...
He was working with Orlando Pace and LeCharles Bentley, if they gave theOK to Urbz I trust em'.
Good pick-up given size and what's left on the board at OT... but a bit of a project. I trust the coaches will get 110% out of him.

I would like to see tape of Pace at that age to compare. I am glad to hear that the competition in the area is tough.
