From the OSU site...talks about his summer workouts. Iowa, Pitt and Wisconsin are starting to stand out and he is still talking to OSU.

looks like this kid might be a back up plan incase some of osu's targeted guys on the DL go elsewhere..anyone seen him play?

This one, is extremely unusual to say the least. University School, is a private school located in Gates Mills, Ohio. The cost is close to $30,000.00 per year. Their very best football players end up at Ivy or Patriot League schools.

I know Duane/Mili think German could be the darkhorse POWER prospect for an offer, but 22 and I have our money on Stoller...

Well, actually, US is in Hunting Valley....

Your point is generally well-taken, but thehe CCIS schools (US, Hawken, and Gilmour) occasionally produce a D-1 talent:

2008 OL Matt Mihalik (Gilmour) is going to Virginia.

2006 RB Paul Rice (US) signed with Yale.

Former Dalls Cowboy QB Jason Garrett is a 1984 graduate of US.

Former All-Pro WR O.J. McDuffie is a 1988 graduate of Hawken.

Former Penn State and NFL WR Eric Hamilton was a 1982 graduate of Hawken.

I'm sure that there are others, but those are the ones that I can remember off the top of my head.

Obviously, you can add Jake Stoller to the above list.

Who went to Princeton if I remember correctly...

We'll see how this class shakes out... Jake is definitely being monitored...

Jason began at Princeton, then transferred to Columbia.

In any event, the small private schools on the east side of Cleveland do prodcue some D-1 talent, and do so more often than some of the public schools in the same geographic area. I wouldn't discount Jake's ability just because he attends a small, private, expensive high school.

They also play some pretty good competition. They usually play a number of the smaller Catholic schools in the area(I know University does at least), such as VASJ, Walsh Jesuit, and Akron St. Vincent - St. Mary, so they aren't just playing a bunch of smaller, bad teams like Western Reserve Academy.

Also US QB Jeff Terrell who just graduated from Princeton this year I believe got invited to some camps.

And Bryant Milligan who was at US until his senior year, transferred to Glenville and ended up at Marshall.

And Tupta is at Colgate, did he sign with OU, because I thought he was always there.

You're right on Tupta - he had some D-1 offers, but signed with Colgate. I deleted him from the list.

As long as you guys are at it, don't forget Eric Pennik(SP?) who went to
Gilmor and starred at ND.

[CleveBucks]

University will play a few decent schools this year... Walsh, Shaker Hts., SVSM.

Has offers from Pitt, Wisconsin, Iowa and several MAC schools and is still talking to Ohio State and Stanford and will likely choose from that list.

Jake loved his visit to Wisconsin and could be close to committing.
