Don't you mean "a list of the awards Posey has WON recently?"

Impressive nonetheless.

Watched Posey last year too and he is a burner. The WRs at OSU will be outstanding this year with more depth at positions than I can remember. He has the size of Hartline and Robiskie and may be a step faster. We have some talent stacking up at wideout. With Stoney, Posey, Dane, TWash, Flash, and Zoom rising as pass catchers this year, our future looks very good.

Its a nice 200 time but anyone know his 100? that way we can see how fast he is off his feet. I dont trust 40 times posted in scouting sites. track times are pretty legit even though it doesnt consider a bunch of factors.

Couldn't find any official times but rivals says 10.7. Watch his junior and senior highlights. He looks like a completely different player his senior year. He's faster, stronger, and bigger. Can't wait to see what he'll be like in 2 years.

[HorticullyBuck]

A 10.7 Is really good; that translates to AT LEAST a 4.40; for taller guys their usually not as fast off the block, but i cant wait to see him, i didnt really pay attention to him much, but from what im reading and hearing/seeing he may become a big fast type of receiver we havent seen in a while.

[OregonBuckeye]

Here's something. Says his best is a 10.98. If it was electronically timed that is very impressive.

I just love this kid. Can you say "special"? He gets on the field this year. And if anyone falters, he gets lots of play time.

He may get playing time even if someone doesn't falter. He's that good. The WR corp is loaded with talent. I'm eager to see how Posey and Pryor connect.

[HorticullyBuck]

Play time; with hartline, Robo, Small, Washington, and saz? along with saine lining up in the slot somtimes? think they would benefit from him redshirting more. we have tons of deapth at WR, stonebuner might get playing time before posey just because of size. not saying hes not good enough, but just seems like a waste to put him in on a few plays against teams were up 30 on

[jwinslow]

Small will have to step up his game production to keep {osey on the sideline. Devier has the most potential of the osu wrs, imo. How well and quickly he realizes that potential is the question.

I like the flashes taurian has shown, but he's a pretty large unknown too.

Sanz and twash burned redshirts due to lack of depth at wr, when both would have been better served to save the year. If posey plays, it will be in spite of depth.

Posey getting minutes at #3-5 wr will be invaluable experience when robiskie is drafted next spring.
