Yeah but he has them on top without an offer, that is the suprising thing. |

My bad, I forgot that he doesnt have an offer from Illinois, I got them mixed up with Indiana...
I wonder what Zook is selling him on then?
I agree with you, I heard from many that they think that Williams is the best pure running back in the state. I wish we would show more interest, but if he has a good Nike camp im sure we will.

Let's not forget that Morgan's good friend and teammate Joe Morgan just committed to Illinois... I'm sure that plays a factor.
I also wonder about this article a little. This is so different than what Williams has said consistently in the past. Maybe he has found out from tOSU that they aren't interested (grades?)... Or maybe it's just the questions that the ND reporter asked... Who knows...

The three backs that I watched in the last few years that I thought to myself " OSU needs to get that kid" were Chris Wells (first saw him as a soph), Javon Ringer (only saw him as a junior) and Darius Ashley. However, I also wasn't sold on Antonio Pittman either and he turned out to be just fine. |
I agree that the Federal League wasn't very tough last season, but Williams did put 200+ yards and 4 TDs on Massillon. I don't think that too many teams put 200+ yards on Massillon, let alone 4 TDs. Regardless of how you put it, he's definitely one of the elite backs in this class. |

To basically echo what I said about Williams in an earlier post, It is really sad that grades may prove the major factor here. Morgan is certainly a prototype Tressel back.

Rivals $
3/20
Film of Morgan.
My Take: Hits the hole hard and shows excellent vision and burst. Polished runner who makes one move then drops the hammer. Most impressive RB in Ohio this year.

Hey Grad do you see a homerun threat or do you see a strong solid 5/6 yd/carrry guy like Pittman? Or both??
