So my friends mom is a Janitor at my school...And she just called me knowing I am a huge Buckeye fan, and says Jim Tressel is up at the school at the moment. He is talking with our Star Tight end/DE Kevin Koger.
Btw I go to Whitmer incase you didn't know who Kevin is.

On the Friday of the UM vs. OSU game he wore a black suite with gray Stripes. The Dude is fast, I ran track with him back in jr. High and he is very beastly. He is the Ohio's all American TE btw.

Added a picture at the top...Kevin is the one blocking the shot.

He was named to the All-Blade 1st Team Defense last year as a DL.

Waiting for more info on Kevin...height and weight are from last year's Dayton Daily News article where Kevin was named First Team All-Ohio in Division I.

Black suite...

Koger already has a Toledo offer.

Both Jim and Doc were there the other nite. They asked for tape...

The word I am hearing is that he is a Michigan fan, but a tOSU offer would be hard to turn down for him...

Sorry guys, I rarely post, mostly read. My cousin played football with him at Whitmer and is a friend of his, so I have seen him play on occasion. He is a physical speciman and a great athlete. To my knowledge, I would not say he is a Michigan fan. He seems to be very familiar with tOSU.

I heard the exact same thing from a UM fan.

EDIT: Just to clarify, he said he was upset because this kid loved Michigan, but OSU jumped on him quicker and that "there was no way" he could turn down an OSU offer.

I thought this was interesting. He was at my store on Wednesday evening and said that he had a offer from Michigan. He is suppose to go to tOSU over this weekend at some point. Does anyone else know anything about this? What I mean, has anyone heard from other sources? We have seen in the past that kids often think they have an official offer, but do not. With that being said I do tend to believe him, however.

My next obsession. I saw Kevin play this past football season and he has great potential as a TE and he's an honor student. (During the TCC v Whitmer game in '06, Sanzenbacher was lined up against him on Defense and there was a height advantage but he caught a few passes). Kevin made some key receptions in Whitmers post season state champ playoff games. my sources informed me that JT visited Toledo Whitmer during signing week and saw Kevin. JT told him he needs to add some weight though. JT returned to the school unannounced to watch Kevin play basketball. I understand the coach looks for multi-sport athletes. He's a junior so we'll be watching him this coming football season. I liked to see Kevin get an offer. If we have Koger and Stoneburner next year ...
