Zordich is gone to Penn State.

I think this has to do with two big things. #1, we have the #1 LB we wanted and are sitting good with Hale (I think Filer is still a possiblity). #2, the limited schollies and LB not being a "need" this offseason.

I also think it has to do with getting Sweat but I know that I was never blown away by Wilson. He could play TE but we have Stoney and look decent for Koger as of now. He could play FB but with so few schollies, why give one to a FB this year? He can play LB and as alluded to by OSU4life, we have our #1 guy with Sweat and look great for Hale. Apart from Hale, Filer is a possbility and I sure wouldn't be disappointed with Beachum or Staples if we just really need a LB (which I don't think we are in dire need of). I have absolutely no problem with moving on to other options.

It could have more to do with a kid over-estimating a school's initial level of interest....

also, about Wilson, I've heard alot of PA guys say they don't think he would cut it at LB'er. Not because of a lack of athletic ability- the kid has boatloads of that- but because of a lack of insticts for the position and a lack of desire on defense. To play defense (especially LB'er) you've got to want to hit people and get down and dirty and take on blocks head on. PA guys are saying he's a tad bit overrated and that his rating comes from his skills as an athlete and not a football player. Most say that he'll have to play RB or H-back in college, because he's just not an overly physical player and the desire to play defense just isn't there.

Wow - amazing how a really busy week at work really takes me out of the loop.

Back to CW, I was always dubious as to how he stacked up with some of the others... thanks, everybody, for the comments

That I can agree with...

You notice that Wilson is rated 10th in PA, at best, despite having more offers than anybody but Pryor. That tells me that while colleges look at him as having potential, the locals find him a bit overrated.

Agree with this. Like I said I think his ratings are based off of his athletic ability and not his on-the field performance. The services are obsessed with kids who are great athletes who can project at multiple positions.
