While the current Buckeyes are back where they belong, the Buckeye Seedlings have tried to keep up at the high school level. It was a big week for Devier Posey, a future Buckeye wide receiver from Cincinnati LaSalle High School. Posey has 43 catches for 718 yards and 6 touchdowns so far this season and his sprinter speed helped gain him another star from Rivals.com. He is the second 5 star commitment in next year's class and 7 others are ranked as 4 stars. The other WR recruit for next year, Jake Stoneburner continued to look impressive, hauling in 12 catches for 147 yards and a TD in a 21-14 win.
Michael Brewster is the other 5 star recruit and he has helped lead Edgewater (Orlando, FL) to a 5-1 record. He is ranked 8th nationally and was selected to the Junior All-American team. Another top ranked O-lineman, J.B. Shugarts has returned from early season injuries to lead Klein (Houston, TX) to a 6-1 record. The other great lineman of this group, Michael Adams has lead Dublin Coffman (Columbus, OH) to a 8-0 record. On the defensive side, D-Lineman Garrett Goebel moved up 20 spots in the Rivals.com top 100 and now is ranked as the 54th best prospect. His Montini (Chicago, IL) team is 7-0 and the defense has pitched 4 shutouts. Another indication that Tressel gets kids from winning programs.
