crazy- I have not seen a complete list of the combine participants.

Here is the game site link, that will eventually have it (you may want to keep checking)- the game rosters are now on the site- so it is probably just a matter of time before they list the combine participants and after the combine they will list the results at this link.

Mike Hartline is pretty similar in height and build, to Carson Palmer when he was recruited to SCum-West. If he ends up producing similarly, I think we'll all be pretty happy.

Mike enjoyed his experience at the Army AA combine but wished he could have had more time to show his skills. Due to the number of participants, Mike felt that the low amount of reps did not offer that opportunity. He is already hearing from a number of schools such as Purdue, Michigan, Syracuse and Cincinnati. He already has a rapport with Coach Tressel due to Brian's recruiting. An early list of favorites, if he had to name one, would be tOSU, Michigan, and Purdue. He is not worried about competition as he will face it at any school he chooses. Also, the possibility of a Hartline family divide, if he should choose Michigan, will not factor into his decision as he is confident his family would support his choice. Hartline will complete a thorough camp schedule this summer by visiting his listed favorites and probably Cincinnati. He plans on enjoying the entire recruiting process so do not expect an early commitment. He does admit that the chance to join his brother in Columbus is appealing, but will not be a deciding factor. He is currently participating on the track team where he is a hurdler and a member of the 4X400 team.

On the radio (AM 1350, Akron) this evening, Duane Long stated that Mike will probably be the number one QB prospect in the state of Ohio for the class of 2006.

“Obviously if things work out I’d love to play with my brother. He’ll be recruiting me there big time.

Well, since the recent news of Chris Wells verbal, I think this prospect is the most important in the class.....

[osugrad21]

He is a major prospect BN, but he has already said his recruitment will be a long endeavour.

He may shock us all, but I don't look for him to commit until January at least

probably so, but we all thought Wells would draw it out until the summer or longer.

He will probably take some visits after the season I bet.

I know what he said last week, but think of it this way. He doesn't want to burn any bridges with other schools until he is officially offered by OSU. He's not going to rule out mich., LSU, or anybody else yet. Wait until OSU offers him, then see what he says about his recruitment. Shades of AJ Hawk, Chad Hoobler, and others. I could see Hartline committing before the season starts.

I tend to think that the coaches want to get all the QBs in camp before they put out offers (not including Tebow, of course), so I'm not anticipating any really early QB commits. They'll want to see these kids head-to-head before deciding which one (or two) we want to bring in.

Hartline, Hakes, Schlicter (sp), Kirbus, etc.

As has been said before, hopefully his older brother can talk him into coming to tOSU. This picture from Gary Housteau on signing day, showing Brian with his girlfriend, gives evidence that Brian has some ability to 'recruit'.

From the ND site...Mike is hearing the most from Ohio State, Michigan, Purdue, Virginia, Notre Dame and Florida State. Mike would really like to follow Brian to OSU. OSU has told him he could get an offer in the next couple of months. He is visiting Purdue and ND this weekend.
