'10 MI DE/TE William Gholston (Michigan State Verbal)

[wadc45]

ESPN - Midwest Recruiting Blog

Some of the top junior and senior football players in the state of Michigan will be in East Lansing Saturday to watch Michigan State take on Notre Dame. Senior tight end Dion Sims (Orchard Lake, Mich./St. Mary's) will be at the game as will junior ESPNU 150 Watch List defensive end William Gholston (Detroit/Southeastern). Both have been offered a scholarship by the Spartans.

The 6-6, 245-pound Gholston is the cousin of former Ohio State and current New York Jets defensive end Vernon Gholston. William is off to a great start this season with 35 tackles and six sacks in three games, all Southeastern victories. His team has yet to give up a point as Southeastern has outscored its opponents 93-0. Gholston says Michigan State, Michigan and Ohio State are the top schools on his list, though he is also looking at Wisconsin, Clemson, Illinois, Cincinnati and a few others.

Gholston would not rule out a commitment to the Spartans this weekend. Provided he does not, he plans to attend the Wisconsin at Michigan game on Sept. 27, the Ohio State at Wisconsin game Oct. 4 and possibly the Penn State at Wisconsin game Oct. 11.

Prior to attending the game, Gholston would not rule out a commitment to the Spartans before returning home. He liked what he saw in East Lansing Saturday and was impressed with the Michigan State defense but wants to continue looking at schools.

He plans to attend the Wisconsin at Michigan game Saturday and will likely attend the Penn State at Wisconsin game on Oct. 11. Ohio State, Illinois and Clemson are other schools on Gholston's list.

Junior linebacker and defensive end/tight end William Gholston recorded 12 tackles (three for loss), three sacks, and a 30-yard catch in Southeastern's 14-6 win over Crockett. Gholston's three sacks give him 9 1/2 in five games.

Ditto.

Of course, immediately followed by "is a Buckeye!", right?

How does William project at TE? If no Hageman or Sims this year, I wouldn't be surprised to see us add two and it looks like Baldwin and Moore are our first choices at DE so far.

I think Gholston is pretty much a lock to stay in Michigan. I'd love for his brother to have some pull and get him to pick Ohio State, but I think East Lansing or Ann Arbor is the right fit, in his mind at least.

A couple of talented junior defensive ends were also present in Ann Arbor. Detroit (Mich.) Southeastern 6'7, 245-pound William Gholston left with a Wolverine offer in hand.

casual reminder folks...

william posts here so keep this in mind amongst other things

5) Do not try to contact or influence a recruit on this board. While it is acceptable to relate the strengths of the Ohio State University in a general way, please do not cross the line and start begging, pleading, cajoling, etc. recruits to become Buckeyes. Not only is such conduct often counterproductive (the school and the football program should be able to "sell" themselves, and the coaching staff doesn't really need your help), it could also be a violation of NCAA recruiting rules. All "open letters" to recruits will be deleted.

Didn't Eddie Murphy wear a Mumford High jacket in Beverly Hills Cops? I hope we go after William. He looks like a great prospect. Best of luck to him except if he goes to Michigan!
