I just talked to his dad yesterday about it. They are trying to figure out the logistics to get out there for a 12pm game. I met them, and spoke with them for a lengthy amount of time, and they want to see Michigan. His dad is going to keep me updated. I'll let you know when I hear more.

Both of you. Really appreciate it!

or last night said his team made the playoffs, so he has a game on Saturday and won't make his official during the Northwestern game.

TomVH--- How are our chances with Taylor? I'd imagine them being good especially since Roh committed. And also I know he was considering Minnesota. Could our win over Minn helped our chances or is there nothing really to make there?

I will have a complete article on Thursday posted. I'm still waiting on a couple things from his Dad. I will tell you that I spoke with them for about an hour, and I can't remember the last time I was this excited for a lineman. While watching his game I came away even more impressed than after watching his video. You'll be interested to see who his favorite player is, and some family ties. So read the article on Thursday and you'll find out more. I hate to do the cliff hanger thing, but I have to wait on a couple things.

hey. what website will that article be posted on? I may be interested in reading it.
and i'm guessing his favorite player is Jake Long

It will be posted on here.
To answer the questions below this, yes he runs a 4.7-4.8 40, and told me he wants to get that better. He's solid muscle too, no fat. He's Barwis' dream. He projects as a Tackle.

I totally agree with you about being so excited about a lineman. The only other lineman I was this excited about was the traitor, Boren. His film was unbelievable. Filled with destruction on every play. This guy though looks like the most athletic lineman I have ever seen. I have been following recruiting for about 10 years, and I know my say doesn't mean anything.

that he runs like a 4.7 or 4.8 or something at over 270 pounds. Rated as 4 stars. Sounds like an absolute BEAST...Does he project as a tackle or interior? Sounds like he'd be a great pickup as far as how much stuff you'd be able to use him for (i.e. pulling, mobility, ect.)

If you've ever seen one of his highlight videos, there's a play where drives the D-lineman 30 yards down the field, and out of the camera shot. It's ridiculous.
November 10th, 2008 at 4:36 PM ^
taken a look at his videos yet because i usually just wait until a player commits to look, but i've heard nasty stuff like that about him and i'd say he's prlly the OL i would choose if we could only get 1 more
November 10th, 2008 at 4:40 PM ^
Wow, I just watched his video on Rivals and he's a monster. Not only is he big, strong and fast, but he looks like he has a mean streak too. Every play he's trying to get a few hits on the guys once the play is past or the whistle has blown. That's a good quality.

I have seen him live as well and he was awesome. He reminds me so much of Jake Long...they even look alike and believe wear the same number. He would be a great addition and a sleeper pick up!
