I think we're a long way from that being determined...if I had to guess right now my gut would be no, mainly because more kids are not going to get offers from OSU than are. But that could certainly change. I know a lot of people like Dion Sims but I don't see him leaving the state. There are still some kids in Ohio yet to be evaluated.

But Reid fits our system better than Sims, due to him being a blocker first type guy...

From GBW...talks about how a few schools sent info to him at Grosse Pointe North instead of South. Talks about his visit to OSU as well as junior days at UM and MSU. Talks about he can see himself at a couple of different positions at the next level.

Reid Fragel, TE, Grosse Pointe South, 6-7/255/4.88: Fragel showed during the camp that the belief that he can play tight end at the college level isn't unfounded. While it's clear he'd be a bigger, more traditional style of tight end, he runs well and even managed to get deep on the defense a few times. That said, his fluidity further exposed his major potential at offensive tackle. Ohio State recently indicated it would recruit him at tight end, while both Michigan and Michigan State covet him more as an offensive tackle. None have offered yet, but that will likely change in the coming months. The key question for Fragel will be: What will weigh heavier in his recruitment -- the position he wants to play, or the position in which he has the most upside?

From GoSpartans...talks about watching an MSU practice. Not sure where MSU is recruiting him to play (OL or TE). Will attend the OSU spring game.

Talks about watching a Michigan practice. Thinks Michigan was looking at him as an OL, would prefer to play TE, but is open to anything.

Reid had a very interested recruiting trip. (Didn't commit or anything along those lines). Its from a premuim message board, but one of the crazier spring game stories that will ever come about on a recruiting visit.

Has been offered - confirmed by Bill Greene at the Ohio State Scout site.

He's telling the truth. Puttin' on hurt on some mugger-thug sort trying to damage up on a family member...or something like that---in CBus, over the weekend! Hero-type action!

Oh, I wasn't trying to be snarky. It's just that the response was kind of unexpected. But to hear that he shouldn't be messed with definitely is the type of stuff I want to hear about recruits!
