Friday Night Lights 2009: 9-15
As always, if you can point me to an article covering any of the commits' games. Do so in the comments. We were unable to make it out to any games ourselves last week, but may be able to drop in on a couple this week.
If you can help out finding articles on any of the commits, we'll try to make it as comprehensive as possible.
SC QB Cornelius Jones
The great name confusion of 2009 has ended by the way, as we now have pseudo-confirmation of the lack of "r" in Jones's first name.
Last week: Spartanburg falls to Sumter 34-21. Article 2. MGoUser Clarence Beeks gives yet another awesome breakdown of Jones's performance. Conelius threw 17/27 for 187 yards with a touchdown and a pick, while running 23 times for 53 yards and another score.
Conelius Jones continues to impress me with his arm, decision-making, and excellent play-action skills. As I've said consistently now, Jones is not all that fast (he's not slow, but he's more quick and shifty than fast), but what has become obvious is that this kid really has the potential to develop as a passer. He shows good presence in the pocket and makes good decisions with where to go with the ball (usually). However, he does tend to bail out and run sooner than he should sometimes, which indicates that he's not processing multiple reads consistently.
I highly recommend checking out the full text of Beeks's breakdown.
This week: Greenwood @ Spartanburg (2-2).

LA Slot WR Drew Dileo
Last week: Parkview Baptist takes down Arcadiana 31-14.
He was also an efficient 4-of-6, throwing for 59 yards, including a 35-yard toss to tailback Drew Dileo with 7:24 left for the Eagles' final score.
Something about that QB's stats screams "wishbone offense," though I guess we already knew that. Drew had 14 carries for 77 yards to go along with the receiving TD.
This week: Parkview Baptist (2-0) @ Church Point.
MI WR Ricardo Miller
Fluff from ESPN.Last week: Pioneer defeats Saline 36-17. MGoUser ArborBlue provided a game report. Ricardo had 3 catches for 48 yards and a (24-yard) touchdown. He also misjudged a wide open pass that should have been a 60-yard TD. For the record, Saline QB (and MSU commit) Joe Boisture was so horrible he got benched during the game. Miller photo appears courtesy of Lon Horwedel for AnnArbor.com.
This week: Saginaw Arthur Hill @ Pioneer (3-0).

Last week: Canton South picks up their first win by taking down Ravenna, 28-19.
Two plays later, Canton South’s Jerald Robinson caught a Logan Bowles pass for a 54-yard touchdown and a 14-13 lead.
I believe that it Jerald's first touchdown on the year.

This week: Huber Heights (2-1) @ Trotwood-Madison.
PA DE Ken Wilkins
Last week: Trinity falls to Greensburg Salem 10-7. Recap article. The Trinity defense was very stout, save for a pass interference penalty in the endzone that ended up providing the deciding points on a QB sneak.
This week: Trinity (0-2) @ Thomas Jefferson.
PA DE Jordan Paskorz
Last week: Hampton falls to West Allegheny, 26-7.
This week: Hampton @ Shaler Area.
OH LB Antonio Kinard

OH CB Terrence Talbott
Last week: Wayne falls to Glenville 57-28. Neither Talbott brother is mentioned in the game recap.

2011 OH CB Greg Brown
Prior to this week's game, Brown had 5 catches for 83 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Last week: Fremont Ross knocks off rival Tiffin Columbian 49-35. I highly recommend checking out that article, because it's heavily Brown-centric.
Brown caught touchdown passes of 39 and 29 yards while finishing with three grabs for 98 yards... "Greg is so versatile that he can hurt an opposing team in so many different ways and we're going to take advantage of that," Fremont Ross coach Derek Kidwell said... "I feel like I always have to step up," said Brown, who has verbally committed to attend Michigan in fall 2010 [sic]. "If I step up, then there's a good chance we're going to win."... Brown gave Ross a 64-yard kickoff return...Second article that's not so Brown-y.This week: Cleveland Benedictine @ Fremont Ross (2-1).
MI QB Devin Gardner
Last week: Inkster had a bye week.
This week: Inkster (0-2) @ Lakewood (OH) St. Edward.
