Was recently offered by Oklahoma State, Penn State and Wisconsin to add to offers from Arkansas, Iowa, Texas Tech, UCLA. Was at the Ohio State spring game and says the staff discussed a future offer. Lynn says distance will not be a factor.

D'Anton Lynn is also set to visit Oklahoma for the Missouri game on Oct. 13. "Oklahoma is having a pretty good season," Lynn said. "I don't know too much about them, but they are only like two hours away and it would be easy for my friends and family to come see me play. I'm looking forward to my visit to see what it's like over there..."

Lynn says he may only take four official visits, although he admits he hasn't decided yet which school will make the cut. "It's really gonna be between Ohio State, USC, Texas Tech, Nebraska, Louisville and Arkansas," he said. "Those are the ones I'm thinking about."

New to the list is Ohio State. "My dad lives in Cleveland and they are another one of those teams that just seems to be good every year," Lynn said. "They have great tradition and really good coaches.

Sounds as if we were a little late ot the party here. He was really interested in Ohio State early on, but others got in on him before we did.

I think this is where his interest might have come from:

Cleveland Browns - Anthony Lynn - Running Backs Coach

Lynn has two children - D'Anton (10/24/89) and Danielle (12/31/93).

[BGriffBuckeye]

Yeah, I had heard about that too. Makes you wonder why he still wouldn't be considering us though, even if it was a late offer. He has the body of a CB, and though I am not sure if he the hips for the position, he would make a very good DB either way.
