No idea.

I don't know if Duron would want to follow his father's footsteps or if he is going to get an offer from the Buckeyes.

He doesn't have a profile on either Rivals or Scout yet.

I was just shocked when I realized that the son of Ohio State's most talented WR didn't have a thread!

Great lineage and coaching. But, only 20 receps? Hard to judge his ability with so few passing plays...............

Hmmmm, I wonder if helping hand will try and steer him to tOSU?

Might be true, but HH is not Cris Carter...

Just a Junior Taos - and the style of the team is clearly run first.

His productivity is much higher than the numbers indicate - the higher yard total receiver 5-8 Pierre-Louis (likely destined to go to Miss. State, perhaps as a CB) has nearly double the yards total, yet only 2 more touchdowns.

Through 14 games - Pierre-Louis 27-574/8 (rec-yds/tds), Duron 20-298/6.

St. Thomas Aquinas plays in the State finals tonight. vs. Osceola.

I don't think that was the implication (or at least it wasn't from my end).

Regardless Duron has been to Columbus for camp the past few years so the coaches will have plenty of hands on experience with him when the time comes for a decision to be made.

FL = no income tax

Cris isn't the only Buckeye down that way.

St. Thomas Aquinas made mincemeat of their Championship opponent.

St. Thomas Aquinas plows over Kissimmee Osceola

The Kowboys fall short in their quest for a state football title after losing 35-20 at the Citrus Bowl.

Tania Ganguli |Sentinel Staff Writer10:14 PM EST, December 14, 2007For whatever Kissimmee Osceola tried Friday night in the Class 5A state championship game, Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas had an answer.

The Kowboys (14-1) lost, 35-20, committing three turnovers and giving up three touchdown of more than 50 yards. It was Aquinas Coach George Smith's fourth state title and the Raiders' first in four consecutive tries. Aquinas (14-1) lost in the 2004, 2005 and 2006 state championship games to Lakeland.

We wouldn't want him then if all he does is catch touchdowns
