'06 OH K Bryan Wright (Michigan signee)
Rivals Profile
Scout Profile
Salem (OH)
Salem High School
Height: 6-foot-1
Weight: 200 pounds
40-yard dash: 4.55 seconds
GPA: 3.4
2004 All-Ohio 1st team kicker ( link)
Bryan Wright is a senior kicker Salem High. Last night (9-16) he set the school record with a 47 yard field goal from the left hash. I wish I had a video of it to share, because he had an EASY 10 more yards on the kick. He consistantly puts the ball out of the endzone on kickoffs. Salem was (as of Sept. 16) ranked #9 in the state (DIII). They lost to Holy Name (#6 DIII) last night, so they will probably drop a few spots.
Link to the local newspaper's write-up for friday's game http://www.salemnews.net/sports/stor...spt00salem.asp
I know that it is not often that kickers are offered scholarships to start with. But I thought it would be good to post this.
Wright did attend the OSU kicking camp. He finished second with a kick in the mid 40's. His interests are listed as Cincinnati, Miami-FL, Ohio State, and Bowling Green.

Well, it's been a few weeks, and I still don't have technical recruiting info, but last night Bryan hit a 52 yard FG. I wasn't there for this one, but two people that I know who did see it said that it was nearly dead center and plenty high and long when it went through.

The highlight of the game for Salem was Bryan Wright's 52-yard field goal in the first quarter, which set a new school record. The kick made the score 7-3, and after that it was all Canfield.

local buzz around him is big, he sounds like a real stud, i might have to go to the Salem vs Poland game this week to check him out. and since i graduated from Salem, its cool to see another player coming from there.

Wright added 37 yarder this past friday, i know thats not a "long" kick, but it was good by a LONG way (ball was still very high when it crossed the bar). He has a very strong leg and really could be a great kicker.
Here's to hoping that he's a buckeye!

Bryan is 7/10 on FGs for the season and has kicked 80% of his kickoffs into the endzone. He has always been a Buckeye fan and a Cincinnati fan (his father played for the Bearcats). He does not hold any offers yet.

I have seen Brian play and he is very impressive. Has enough leg to kick a 60+ yard FG. I know that some of his KO's that didn't make the endzone were intentional. He kicked them high and deep and let the coverage tackle the returners short of the 20.

I witnessed two of those misses. (I know excuses don't make anything better, but here's what happened from my view.) The first was on a rainy night and was a just few yards short (but dead center) from 55ish. And the second one was a bad play, it was tipped at the line and still made it pretty far. | |
