'09 IL WR Terry Hawthorne (Illinois verbal)

[wadc45]

Wasn't going to start a thread but this kid has named OSU (along with Illinois) as a leader to two different reporters...Illinois has to be considered the early favorite to land him (along with teammate Kraig Appleton).

Terry picked up early offers from Illinois, Minnesota, and Vanderbilt. Right now, he does not see himself going far from home and Illinois is very appealing.

Kraig Appleton has not shown much interest in tOSU to this point....so I think I am gonna scratch this one (Terry) off my list if he truly wants to form "one of the top WR tandems in the country, along with teammate Kraig Appleton". Unless there's something brewing with Kraig and tOSU that we don't know anything about.

/\ /\ /\ I am editting this post..... I stand to be corrected on what I had posted earlier, and there is certainly some mutual interest between Kraig and tOSU. In fact he now lists us in his top 5. That bodes well for us recruiting Terry (that's if our coaching staff is looking at him).

^Its wayyyy tooo early to be scratching anybody off any list. Sit back and enjoy the ride. We are as big of a player as anybody at this point. I have a sneaky suspicion that certain teams(Illinois) aren't gonna make the same noise they made last year.

I believe the "tandem" refers to them playing together for their senior season, not playing together in college (though a possibility for that]

Video- "Terry Hawthorne does his thing"

He and Appleton are the best 2 WR's in the Midwest IMO. After watching his film, Hawthorne should be a 5 star. He is certainly a 5 star talent. Looks like Percy Harvin.
