What did he do in a small amount of time to make his offers go crazy?

He fired up three coaches from Youngstown, Ohio.

Exactly...it's no coincidence the three coaches to offer were Tressel, Pelini and Stoops...

This is why I love recruiting. Where the heck did this kid come from. NOW the BN fruit loops will say we are reaching for this kid, this is why we can't beat SEC teams, etc but look at this kids 3 offers and his measurables. You don't get an offer from Stoops, Pelini, and JT without having some skills.

[buckeyeinfla]

sounds like a typical JT late offer to some unknown kid (i.e. donald washington, chekwa, anderson russell, curtis terry) that ends up being a major cog in osu's machine...love it

[Taosman]

Time for the obligatory;

"Trust the coaches on this one!"

I cannot begin to imagine that while scheduling a flight to Nebraska, to give a committment no less, receiving The call from your dream school. What a feeling that must be. Congrats on the offer!

If this thing happens, it has to be a BP record for the time between the first post in the recruiting forum to dancing bananas.

I see a 6'2 215 lb running back that is fast and likes a little contact. He really accelerates through the hole.

There's something wrong about having your hometown listed as Xenia...but your HS as Otterditch...err Beavercreek.

Who was on his list of offers before this? Where was he leaning? Why is this the first that we've heard of this kid, and he gets 3 major offers in a day. I mean, I know you can say "the coaches watch everyone one... he's been on their radar.... yada yada"... What's up?

I'm shocked and wondering the same thing you are. Something hit me when grad mentioned underexposure. Beavercreek is traditionally TERRIBLE at football. It's a large suburban high school with a great tradition for basketball and a laughing stock of a football team historically. It certainly isn't a school that many big time CFB head coaches have gone to for recruiting.

Congrats to Zach on the offer. It's always good to see another Dayton area guy get some OSU love.
