Do we take 2 TE's (Rudolph and Moore) next year with our low # of schollies? Terrific size for the position. Is Kyle similar to Moore in that he is a field stretching pass catcher? I would assume so based on his measurables...

I believe that Stoneburner might want to put his name in that hat also...
And I think that we could possibly have room for two if the they are the right guys, but I would say just one.

Elder ready for St. X showdown BY MIKE DYER | ENQUIRER STAFF WRITER Elder coach Doug Ramsey senses the confidence has returned for the Panthers. It sounds simple enough, but the shift in attitude began during the summer and hasn't ceased. Elder went 4-6 in 2005 - the first losing season since 1986. But, that season seems to be a distant memory. "It's been fun," Ramsey said. "I'm happy for the kids. I don't know what will happen the rest of season ... but the kids have done a good job of creating their own identity. This year, they have realized 'this is your shot, your team.' " After a 35-34 double overtime win over La Salle last weekend at The Pit, Elder (4-1, Greater Catholic League-South 1-0) hosts reigning Division I state champion St. Xavier (4-1, 0-0) at 7:30 p.m. today. "They've improved defensively, and they tackle better," St. X coach Steve Specht said. "(But) I thought they were good last year." Elder, ranked No. 3 in the Enquirer Division I coaches' poll, hasn't defeated top-ranked St. X since 2003, but the Panthers have several weapons on both sides of the ball that could change that trend tonight. Junior quarterback John Groene has filled in well for injured starter Derrick Ventre, who has been out with a broken hand. Ramsey said Ventre, a senior, is expected to be out for four weeks. Groene is 35 of 48 passing for 407 yards and six touchdowns. He has offered more mobility as the quarterback, according to Specht. In the La Salle game, Groene completed 25 of 36 passes for 271 yards and four touchdowns. He also rushed 24 times for 74 yards and a touchdown. "He has played real well and he makes plays against great competition," Ramsey said. "He makes decisions and goes with it." On offense, there are several decisions because there are several options. Senior running back Pat Williams has rushed for 395 yards and nine touchdowns. Junior 6-foot-7 tight end Kyle Rudolph has become a favorite target during the season. Rudolph has 20 receptions for 255 yards and six touchdowns. Junior wide receiver Nick Olthaus had nine catches for 130 yards and a touchdown in the La Salle game. "They're skilled players," Specht said. "Rudolph is a freak. You don't see that too often. He's athletic and he can run and jump. He also has good speed." Elder has had a strong defensive line all season. Senior lineman Jeff Rieskamp had three sacks against the Lancers. The key, however, will be to stop St. X junior standout Darius Ashley, who has rushed for 596 yards and six touchdowns. Ashley carried the ball 35 times for 203 yards against Covington Catholic last week. "Once you get into league play, there are no secrets," Specht said. "Doug is not going to say, 'oh my gosh, we are going to change what we do this week.' "

I am a big fan of Stoneburner and I think he could possibly stay at WR...I really hope they offer him and Moore and find places for them to play later. They are all big and athletic and good help us on either side of the ball.

It seems like every year we start off with less than 20. Schools like Texas seem to show up with 25 every year.

JT likes to bring in 20 a year to make an even 80...which leaves 5 schollies for emergency use and/or walk-ons that have earned the right to be on scholarship.

Kyle is a heckuva basketball player as well (as you can tell by the interest he's getting)... Dayton offered him a scholarship last year as a sophomore...

10/4/06 Video interview with Kyle...BC was first to offer, followed by OSU. OSU's distance is a positive. He did not grow up a fan of any particular program but does recall watching the 2002 national championship game. Great size, great hands, great footwork...easy to see why he got an early offer...

He also backed up that Kyle was "not a fan" of any particular school, but he said that there are lots of pro-tOSU sentiments at Elder... Great looking prospect at a position of need for next year. Let's hope the early offer can get it done with Kyle...
