Im from PBC as well and we played Atlantic when Omar Jacobs was there. Atlantic always has a good team and players. Hopefully he turns out to be as good as one of the last PBC recruits, Santonio Holmes (he destroyed us my senior year).

Congrats and Wide Receiver U is a nice place to be.

I still am curious why James wasn't at FNL...this might have been in the works for a few days/weeks more than we realize...

I did not see this coming! Welcome James!

Wow, he can flat out turn on the jets! And I love the way he's not afraid to go into the middle...for a smaller guy, he sure doesn't try to avoid contact.

Very excited to see a guy with seemingly all southern school offers come north to the great state of Ohio!

Welcome to the family young man!

He's in their game, so they're going to hype him like crazy. It might be a little telling if they drop his ranking since he committed to Ohio State (instead of the SEC or USC).

Tyrone Williams supposedly has a Buckeye offer as well. You wouldn't hear me complain about a trio of Tyrone Williams (6'5" Ohio product), Christian Green (one of the best atheletes in the country), and James Louis (Florida blue chipper).

James says he didn't need to see tOSU to commit because he trusts everything Cris Carter has told him. He says he is 100% committed, will not take other visits, and is already planning his official.

I like Cris Carter more everyday,

Wide receiver James Louis (Delray Beach, Fla./ Atlantic) has become commitment No. 10 for Ohio State, according to Atlantic coach Andre Thaddies.

"He said he committed," Thaddies said. "And I've talked to (Ohio State assistant) coach Taver Johnson."

The 5-foot-11, 180-pounder was a varsity starter at running back his freshman season at Boca Raton Olympic Heights. He transferred to Atlantic prior to his sophomore season.

Louis caught 32 passes his sophomore year for 420 yards and five touchdowns. He had a huge junior season catching 58 passes for 1,100 yards and 12 touchdowns.

Louis had over 30 scholarship offers including Ohio State, Florida State, LSU, Georgia and Virginia Tech before picking the Buckeyes.

"He is a unique player," Thaddies said. "He is very explosive. He can score from anywhere on the field. He is an Under Armour All-American. And he's a great kid."

Louis has a 2.6 GPA and he scored an 18 on the ACT.

Very nice to see a student-athlete making a decision, stick with it and move on.
