Maryland, Illinois, Penn St., Oklahoma, Ohio St., and Virginia lead. Maryland may be the favorite due to proximity.

7/11/05 From Rivals100.com...Bowman lists Ohio State, Tennessee, Virginia Tech, Penn State and UNC as his favorites. He says he loves his recruiter from OSU (no mention of who it is, but I would guess Fickell) and he plans to visit Columbus. He talks about his favorites and mentions that he would prefer to leave the state of Maryland. Bowman will oprobably not decide until the fall but may want to graduate early. He has a 3.63 GPA and 990 SAT. From the sound of this article, we have as good a shot as anyone, if not better, at landing Navorro. That is why I re-opened this thread. |

Wow, excellent news on Bowman, and completely out of the blue, as he hadn't been talking about Ohio State for a while; if his coach is favorable toward Ohio State, then the Bucks should have a real chance here.
BTW, the article cited by wadc45 was written by Mike Farrell, a Rivals national reporter. Quote:

This is great news indeed especially with the need of LB's in this class. We are definetly doing great in Maryland this year and Luke Fickell is an excellent recruiter(not a newsflash really but still). It would be great to get him,Wallace, and possibly Gbadyu in for that game. It's also good to see that his grades are excellent.

I just watched Bowman's film. Although he is similar in size to fellow Maryland LB Akeem Hebron, he is a different style of player. While Hebron has great speed and flies around the field making highlight reel hits, Bowman mans the middle of the defense and relies on his strength and reads to make plays. Overall, a very good player, but not flashy; definitely a linebacker and not a safety. He would be a nice addition to the Bucks.
