If the prioir Scout update is the same one I read it is also worth mentioning that Aldridge's coach believes he is better suited at linebacker, and that is where the Scout database has him listed.

Well I guess we could kill 2 birds here with one stone then if true about the position switch. With Jeremiha Hunter's apparent scUM lean... Aldridge could be our 3rd LB/2nd RB in this class (Hunter can play both, and we have offered him... that is why I mentioned his name). He seems to have all the tools, and we appear to be in good atsning. Definitely one to keep up on  . |

Just a couple other things from the article. His coach says he could be a better lb and that is where he thinks he is better, but he is a great rb also.
Also runs a 21.0 sec 200m.

If he runs anywhere near that, I say give him an offer immediately! More likely runs a few seconds slower because that is faster then TG2.

Scout $
James was offered by Okie State. He says they really need a RB. They are now his leader and if he likes them enough he will commit during his visit to spring practice. He grew up a Mich. Fan, but also rooted for OSU. He was at the OSU Junior Day and is friends with former teammate Nick Patterson. Coach Tressel was at his school 1 month ago. He would like to major in physical therapy.
