Hard to get higher than top 12...I am not saying I have him at 12, just that he could be anywhere...There are guys that I would obviously put higher in the top 12 than others, but IMO all are big time prospects...

he way I look at it, there are three prospects in this Ohio class that are just a notch above the rest, and those three are Simon, Barnett, and Fellows.
I think those three, based on a combination of offers, measurables, and film are the best of the best in Ohio. Following those three would be the rest of your list (I have no problem with Carradine being in that elite group because I'm really high on him too). I just can't imagine his reasoning for some of these rankings. I'm just wondering how he would justify his ranking of Payne that high or his rankings of Touissaint or Muldoon that low.

Other guys would add Wood to that list, others would add Klein to that list, others would add Carradine to that list, others have Said Hall is the best player in the state...See what I am getting at...one guys opinion is just that...Duane sees more film on these guys than anyone of this board...He has also been doing this for a long time...IMO the only position that he struggles at, sometimes is QB, much like with Payne in this class, it was Hartline and Belton a couple years back...But IMO that just comes with how valuable the QB position is at the college level...

Edit:
Also, no offense to Jake Brandt(I admit I had to look him up). I'm sure he's a fine player, but I seriously doubt he's better than Mewhort or Linsley, especially Linsley.
I'm actually surprised Linsley isn't getting more talk as being among the ten best in the state. His video is great. He has a tremendous offer list. He's a prototypical road grader at guard. He's definitely the second best lineman in the state IMO after Hall.

No real gripe with you here...I have not heard of Brandt either, but remember that Duane has seen more film on him than we have...
As for Linsley much like with QB's being valued very high by Duane, along with DE's, G's not so much...He likes lineman that are able to play all positions...Unless of course they are Mike Brewster...
