Want to say hello?
We love hearing from you! Whether you want to work with us, discuss advertising opportunities, or pass us a hot tip, you're more than welcome to drop us a line.
Zeke had 3 Tds and close to 200 yards last time I saw...... And that was in the 2nd Qtr
Never heard his name before but it sounds like 2014 wr Marshon Lattimore out of Glenville is killing it tonight and will be at the game tomorrow with teamate Worley, Marc Gilver says he expects Lattimore to get an offer soon.
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
Zeke scored 4 long TD runs in 4 carries. Kid might actually get that 5th star on some sites if he keeps this up
Excited for Marshon, gotta love that Tarblood pipeline.
More on Marshon Lattimore:
Jalin Marshall... 3 passing TDs in first half against Springfield, 21-0. Not much on the ground from Marshall... Little scat back William Peters has most of the yards on the ground and was on the other end of 2 of Marshall's TD throws
Lots of Buckeye Scarlet and Gray at tonights game (in KY) and I have NO idea why. Timmons is having a very average game so far as he has only touched the ball 5 time. 3 receptions for 120 and a TD and two carries for 40 and a TD.
Marshall isn't human..what a pick up we have in him.
Run_Fido's favorite word is strawman.
Also in the Springfield game, 2014 LB Davonte James has had his name called a lot. Nothing from Thad Snodgrass yet.
sign up Lattimore!! Dude just had another TD; 80 yard end around.
I agree RDUBS! Bill Greene can't stop singing his praises:
sounds like Snodgrass has had a couple TDs taken away by defensive pass interference. I guess if you can't beat 'em.....cheat!
Darron Lee strikes again!
Sounds like Lattimore will have an offer very soon!
"Attack the Strong, Trample the Weak, Hurdle the Dead!"
-Former OSU S&C Coach Lichter
Yes, Snodgrass has drawn 2 defensive pass interferences. Middletown just scored again 28-0. Springfield is in for a down year.
Lattimore and snodgrass at wr from ohio + one out of state guy would be a nice wr class next year... Guys saying Lattimore may be best junior in ohio, saying a lot since Dante Booker jr is also a special talent.
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
Strong words:
Timmons now has 4 receptions 140 yds Td 3 carries 48yds 2 tds just started 3rd qtr.
Who is this Timmons kid Waycraken keeps talking about? Does he have an offer? Is he any good? (Don't answer, I keed, I keed...)
Tony Gerdeman ?@GerdOzone
#OSU commit J.T. Barrett (@Jt_theQB) just threw a 76-yard TD pass. Had a 34-yard run earlier.
Tony Gerdeman ?@GerdOzone
Short TD run for J.T. Barrett just now. Rider leads it 21-14 in the first half.
Early 3rd qtr Timmons just scored TD #4 and his night is most likely over as his team has scored 70 already. How is Springfield so bad with 2 OSU kids with offers. I saw them last year and they were not that good.
I don't know Waycracken, how can MSU be so bad with so many NFL prospects on their team??
Bad news regarding Darron Lee:
@Waycracken, on twitter Derek has said that he's suprised by how little the offensive gameplan is involving Snodgrass, he's getting very few oppurtunities to get the ball.
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
You have to wonder
Marshon Lattimore 6 rec 132 yds 3TDs, 6 rush 107 yds TD in Glenville's 40-17 win
People are saying we have offered Lattimore, based on today's performance I hope that's true and I hope he commits!
Good news on offering already, good to know him and Worley are visiting tomorrow too.
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
Read on ESPN, he has been offered, and WANTS to play for OSU says its his "dream school", and that he has always wanted to go there. This may very well be the first commit of the '14 class.
doing the math of lattimore and timmons, very similar averages, but yet no offer for timmons? hhhmmm
Except Timmons plays terrible competition.
Dante booker and Marshon Lattimore combo tomorrow please?
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
Timmons doesn't have an offer because we have ~5 spots left
Lattimore has one because we have ~20 and he's doing the same thing against much better competition
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
@jdadams uh well perhaps that is true, but then again i suspect some people on here have other issues or agendas, good night all
JT Barrett up to 140+ yds rushing...
Yikes...
Bosa needs to get his a$$ off the field if he has a concussion. Really dumb thing to do.
"Attack the Strong, Trample the Weak, Hurdle the Dead!"
-Former OSU S&C Coach Lichter
Dont under estimate an athlete that has ran a 10.3 wind aided 100 meters a 10.61 official 100 a 4.3 40. Dont under estimate Urbans interest in Timmons. There is something in the works only Timmons may not last long enough for the plan to unfold. Arkansas Wisconsin and more very major BCS teams are arranging visits. You talk about comp level but do you know at OSU camp he blew away the signed DBs you have. He did the same thing first 3 touches 3 touchdowns untouched.
@waycracken
im not trying to discredit Timmons. If it were up to me I would take him over Gibson. I'm just offering up a possible rationale as to why he has no offer. If I was the head coach he'd be number 2 behind Quick on my WR board. I've seen enough highlights to be convinced. Hope the kid gets the offer
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
@buckeyestu:
Dont really know where you're going with that one. Just making the statement that Timmons competition isn't very good
Agreed 703, love to see a kid displaying toughness and not wanting to let his team down, but concussions are not something to mess around with. Very dangerous and dumb on his part. I can't believe the coaches/ trainers would let him play. Earlier in the day he tweeted "I guess I'm not playing today." But minutes ago he mentioned what's posted above. Makes no sense to me.
@triv. I was informed tonite that Timmons most likely gets that offer if he holds tight and it has nothing to do with the wish list of WR's. Im just not so sure the timing will be right. Quick and Timmons would be sweet.
Tony Gerdeman ?@GerdOzone 67-yard TD pass by J.T. Barrett with 3 mins to play. Going for two. Barrett keeps it, gets in. Rider leads 36-35.
@waycracken Well then here's to hoping Timmons holds off for that offer
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
im with bj a lattimore, booker jr combo tomorrow would be an unreal start to '14

stark county football
2014 QB prospect Caleb Henderson finished 16 of 27 for 218 yards and two touchdowns, along with an interception, in his team's (Lake Braddock) loss to Centreville, 28-27. Sounds like it was a barnburner.
Joey Bosa, please, no football until your brain has fully healed, even though it is a big drag. Secondary concussions (concussions that occur before a teenager has fully recovered from the original concussion) are what neurologists worry about the most.
I also am hopeful that we still land Gibson and Timmons. The Lattimore and Booker are both radical players. I am especially fond of Booker's highlight reel, the kid looks instinctive as hell and fast. I hope that he is our first for '14.
I have no stats but Drew Barker's team won 67-21. Have to imagine he had a pretty big game
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
How is Dareian Watkins doing? I hope that he is our next big QB recruit.
Pretty sure Bosa did not play & was explaining that it was due to having a concussion...
The world is full of kings & queens who'll blind your eyes & steal your dreams - it's heaven & hell - Ronnie James Dio.
@Yankee, I think osu is more looking at Dareian as a wr/db, so itll be interesting to tell when he gets an offer because he plays qb in high school.
Favorite Buckeye: Obviously BJ Mullens
@poison - Bosa did play
Barker's coaches don't submit their freakin stats after the games. They still haven't posted last weeks stats in the box scores. Barkers team did put up 67 points, on a team that was a smaller school division state champion last year. I'm going to go to Barkers game next week. He's playing about 5 minutes from my house. I'll give a full report.
Since Waycracken is having fun with a great kid who does not have an offer, I have one to enter into these talks. heath Harding sr. RB from Dayton Christian. has offers from most MAC schools already - understand he's been asked as a preferred walkon at tOSU. last week stat line - 8 carries, 221 yds 3TD 1rec 40yd TD.
Last night 5 carries 263 yds 5TD 1 KO ret 85 yds TD, & a pick 6 for 45 yds. Heath runs a 4.33 in combines, & has 13 carries for 484 yds with 8TD, 11 TD's total on the season. Interest though is mostly as a DB at 5'10" 180. He was at the big 2 day camp in June.
4.33 40 is fast. Sounds like a player too.
Austintown Fitch's Billy Price:::In a 49-9 win ,He played offense only and did ok...Couple mistakes(precedure), but otherwise ok......You can tell he is geared for Defense....This week they play Brunswick @ Falcon Stadium....
Shane Morris' team is losing 38-0 at half to St. Ignatius and he only has 39 yards passing with an INT. Not sure how his OLine or WRs are, but he isn't looking like a 5 star right now. #welcometoOhioHSFootball
@triv and btalbert. Barker was 4/11 passing 112yds 1 td and 7 rushes for 143 yds 2 tds. Id bet he didnt play after 3rd qtr.
haha, ^^^^ amen to rdubs
Shane Morris should get used to those type of performances against Ohio teams!
Not the best passing stats but I'm digging the rushing
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
Called Iggy's mauling of Morris last week. Though, it wasn't much of a stretch on my part.
"Attack the Strong, Trample the Weak, Hurdle the Dead!"

Tracy Sprinkle had 9 tackles, 5.5 sacks, 7 TFL, 4 hurries, and a forced fumble. Pushing hard for that 4th star
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
What is the competition like that Sprinkle faces? He put up great numbers in his first 2 games
"Love my State, hate the football"
I think OSU has cooled on him, so may not matter, but - fwiw - Robert Foster (Central Valley): 8 receptions for 77 yards, and a 2 yard TD run.
"You win with people." - Woody Hayes
@upnorthbuckeye, he played elyria catholic, not sure how good they are, but if you want a real read on sprinkle, wait for the 9/14 game. Elyria plays strongsville and strongsville always fields a very strong team, mainly because their school system is so damn big.
Shane Morris finished 5 of 12 for 39 yards. That should bring a smile to your face.
Shane Morris finished 9-22 for 104 yards 0 tds and 2 ints. about half of those yards came in the second half, after the starters had been pulled. The 2nd and 3rd teamers also kept him in check.
Shane Morelli
And how in the hell is Shane Morris a 5* on some websites? Just stupid....these college scouts are retarded.
"if irony were made of strawberries, we' d all be drinking a lot of smoothies right now."
Morris had very average stats last week as well. As stated before, big arm, self promoter, good HS QB. Not the all-star he is being made out to be. Keeping yourself in the headlines weekly and having the cash to go to all the camps makes you a five star.
Can someone put up Lattimores stats up for each game?
Morris looked good at camps, in shorts... so much of the recruiting rankings are based on those performances, would love for them to be intelligent and just watch how the kids play real football instead of two hand touch.
I couldnt agree more. If a kid doesnt spend the MONEY and does not play at a high profile program most of those kids start out in a hole. Aaron Rogers best NFL QB was not even rated in HS on these sites, yet many knew he was better than those rated higher. In large part the whole Rivals Scout thing is a joke. Most people who have any intellect for the game could do as well. Many people on this site even make their wants solely on the offer sheets and star rating. Myself I adhere to the eye test. If Scout and Rivals do not rate you high enough they do not even care about putting in the correct stats and that is a fact. I do not think they should have the right to falsely report stats only to try and validate there skewed rating system.
Did anyone catch the Trotwood game last night? Heard once again that the opposing D stayed away from Cam but saw on twitter he had a big tackle on a fake fied goal
Sorry Urban, Woody is still my favorite
Looking at lattimore's highlights from just two games kid is sick. Lets keep that glenville pipeline going.
