Rivals.com Football Recruiting - From the Road: Performing in the playoffs

When you think of Midwest football, you imagine games played in cold and snowy conditions and last weekend's Ohio state championship games in Canton and Massillon lived up to those expectations. Six games were played in two days and it featured top junior prospects, top senior prospects, ice, snow flurries and plenty of hard hitting.

In the Division III championship game played at Canton's Fawcett Stadium, two of the top juniors in the Midwest battled.

Ohio State-bound athlete Storm Klein had been devastating in the first three rounds of the state tournament. He put up big numbers and showed why the Buckeyes offered him so early in victories over Granville, Beloit West Branch, Canal Fulton Northwest and Monroe.

But Friday junior linebacker Will Studlien contained Klein with an avalanche of tough hits, bone crushing blocks and an all-out effort that didn't end until his Sunbury Big Walnut teammates were celebrating a 17-10 victory over Newark Licking Valley.

Continued...

He picked up an early offer from Akron and others like Ohio State and Pittsburgh are very interested. Now with a state championship to add to his resume and a great effort on Friday, his stock is only bound to heat up even more.

Will Studlien enjoyed the matchup with another one of Ohio's best.

Just great..lol
He'll sign with Illinois and play his best game of the year against us.

I just saw both highlight tapes on Sweat and Studlien and boy they look very comparable.Sweat might be a little faster,but Studlein sees ball gets ball very quick.
He's a good one,unfornately we cannot sign them all like we could in the good old days.

This is one guy I really, really want to see at OSU. This guy is just a gamer and one I really would hate to see be left out. You just look at his face in some of those pictures and it looks like pure AJ Hawk with the intensity on his face. I believe Will is going to earn that offer.

I hear what you are saying, but we have so many Lb's already and we still have some offers out to some florida guys, and if sthere are any other big name guys that we might offer...

I would think that if we are going to offer WIll that it will be at camp...
