Its obvious to everyone who has followed his recruitment that he has really improved this summer, lets hope he verbals to OSU. He is a great kid who plays the game hard.

Lamb on BN feels that their is a possiblity he will verbal within a couple of weeks and if not may take visits in the fall and then decide.

Further confirmation of the great news about his offer (upon first glance I thought the tree was a fro)

He talks about waiting to decide until after he takes all of his visits in september. Choosing OSU will not be b/c of the Thad 5. And he admits he wishes OSU had offered months ago (let's hope that is not a hangup for him).

Canton McKinley forward Raymar Morgan is the latest player to receive a scholarship offer from Ohio State, but will he accept it and become the next member of the OSU recruiting class? Dave Biddle caught up with Morgan, who has a timetable in mind for when he will make his decision.

I don't think this is a good development for OSU. I think right now that Morgan was feeling a bit frustrated by OSU's lack of an offer until yesterday and I think that has had an effect.

I do not mean that in a negative way towards Morgan personally, I just mean that could be an influence on his decision making right now. I think he is a great kid, but the lateness of the offer may cost OSU in the end.

I have always thought they should have offered him earlier this year, the kid is a winner and plays the game the right way.

Agreed, I also got a negative vibe from reading his interview, and would also apply the blame to Thad not Raymar for the way things may be between them. Keep in mind that MSU is an elite school and has not had tons of recruiting success like us, so it's not hard to feel more loved by them (especially since they offered long ago).

Read this a few times and can't figure out if he's shaking his head excitedly about OSU or Mich/MSU...

... Raymar and Isaiah

The next game I witnessed involved two of the Spartans’ top recruits in the 2006 class, Team Iowa’s Raymar Morgan, and Team Michigan State’s Isaiah Dahlman. It was the first time I had seen these guys other than on film, so I was anxious to get a good look, as were Tom Izzo and Steve Alford, who had settled into courtside spots opposite the team benches.

Both players were impressive, and displayed good basketball IQ’s with a willingness to distribute the ball to open teammates. That is an unusual thing to see at these types of events, so when you see a kid do that it stands out.

Dahlman has a great looking shot from outside, hitting on a long range three from the left corner and later grabbing a rebound and taking it to the hoop, switching hands in mid-air before laying it in off the glass. The most impressive thing about his game offensively is how hard he works to get open without the ball.

Morgan is a bit more athletic than Dahlman, and a couple of times played some stifling defense on Dahlman, once blocking Isaiah’s shot in the lane on a drive to the hoop. Morgan, at 6’8”, has the skill to play both in the post and outside. He displayed a nice jump hook from about 8 ft on the right base line, then a series or two later got into the passing lane at the top of the circle to steal a pass, which he converted into a breakaway dunk on the opposite end.

Both Raymar and Isaiah have a quick first step and are not afraid to put the ball on the floor and create on their own. It was not surprising that they would be named to the Camp’s All Star rosters later Saturday afternoon.

The Interview Room


...


Raymar Morgan said that the possibly that Jamil Tucker could become the fifth member of the Thad Five in Columbus has no bearing on his decision on whether to attend OSU or not. When I follwed that question by asking him if his final three schools remained Michigan State, Michigan and Ohio State, he smiled, shook his head vertically and said “Yes” (oops there’s a quote).

As for Deshawn, the race for his signature between Michigan and Michigan State maybe tighter than it was two months ago, then again it may not be. It all depends on who you believe. While he continues to say that Syracuse remains on his list of schools, I think he is saying that so as not to offend orange lovers.

...


The MHSAA and the All Star No-Shows

...


The games, as expected provided little defense and lots of scoring. Isaiah Dahlman and Raymar Morgan both played big in the second game, and Dahlman was named the Game II MVP.

honestly, I see what you guys are saying, but I think part of it is the fact that Morgan is not much of talker when it comes to interviews. he is usually fairly modest and understated and does not give you a whole lot in any of his interviews. I think that may be part of what might be causing the perception that he is not as high on OSU as we all hope he is.

I still think he ends up in Columbus...
