Nice. I hope we get both Snodgrass and Lattimore in 2014.

Lattimore & Snodgrass need to be 2 of Meyers main targets as both love OSU, both are in state but national WRs. Lattimore is a must get!

Snodgrass is a must get also, but OSU cannot not afford to lose a guy like Lattimore in there own backyard. Lattimore is a top notch athlete & not very many of them come along in Ohio.

What are the chances of an early commitment from him where he becomes a leader for this class going forward?

I think OSU has a good lead on this one...like all Glenville kids, I think he will wait a while though

I heard a while back that Glenville kids are told to postpone commits as to keep interest on the school and help other teammates gain exposure. The class of 2014, however, looks to have several D1 caliber players and it wouldn't be necessary for them all to hold out. Ted Ginn Sr. is running the show though and I suspect they need his approval before they can do anything. Fortunately he does seem to be at least a fan of the Bucks.

Good speed, good agility, good hops. Yes Please!

Not really sure what you mean by athlete. In football, a "top notch athlete" can look like Braxton Miller or Adolphus Washington both from Ohio. I'd argue just from the last couple of years guys like Devin Smith, Josh Perry, even Taylor Decker are all top notch athletes. We'll see what kind of football players they turn out to be, but they are certainly athletic. Elite athletes, by definition, do not come around very often, but I'd wager we see more than our fair share coming through Ohio football.

Lattimore=Stud -his ability is amazing best athlete since TGII that weve had/seen up here in NE OH. Kid is legit top 5 WR and DB in the state and prob #1 overall in 2014 at the start of the rankings for OH next year.

Forgot to add that I believe he was injured last year which is why he has only popped up this year

Don't know if it's just me, but his tape reminds me a lot of Stefon Diggs's: unique combo of speed, agility and strength. Can break tackles, has great cutback ability, and can go up to get balls. Just all-around superior athlete, controls the competition with and w/out the ball.

If we don't get him, I just may cry manly tears.

I understand the excitement now. Everything you can ask for. Size,speed, hands, and he sure wasn't afraid to get up and make a catch in traffic. He'll look great in a Buckeye uniform

An angry fan...rooting for an angry team...led by angry coaches

I love this kids pure athleticism.

@Alex, do you think if we got Chris Worley it would help our chances with Lattimore?

buck-I.8 on 25 Oct 2012 - 8:20pm #

@golden, they did travel to at least one game together, so I'd imagine so

SpoonerBuck33 on 25 Oct 2012 - 8:29pm #

Lattimore will be wearing S&G as will Jones and Worley not sure on Marshon's timeline but Marcelys the OL will be comitting sooner than the usual Glenville kids do.

It's hard to evaluate sometimes on High School tape, but honestly I really don't see elite speed there. Compare to Ezekiel Elliot, or Ryan Timmons. Different league. Good speed for sure, but more like a Brian Robiskie than a Ted Ginn. Everything else, though, appears to be elite. Great hands, size, leaping ability and can make people miss in the open field.
