I got the chance to watch Storm play tonight as Licking Valley traveled to North Canton to face Hoover. LV lost 40-45 in a thriller of a game, coming up just short after trailing 39-7 at halftime. My brother and I came away very impressed with Storm. He will definitely have the size to be a Big10 LB. I had to remind my brother that he's still only a junior, so it will be exciting to see how much he progresses by this time next year (and once he gets into college).
He played MLB, RB, punter, was on kickoff coverage, and the FG unit. According to our counts, he had 15 tackles (several for loss) and ran for 3 scores, despite having to sit out much of the 3rd quarter with cramps. You could definitely tell that NCH had game-planned around him. Everyone for NCH knew where 32 was before each snap (on both sides of the ball).
I'm not an expert, but I thought he did a good enough job shedding blocks and getting in on tackles. He seemed to play most of the game as a read'n'react LB and he seemed to do fairly well with reading plays and getting to the ball. He was just a half step slow on taking a screen pass back for 6 on one play. I was also happy to see that he was definitely a team player, and was mixing it up very well with all of his teammates. I don't like watching the HS stars who stay separated from their teammates.

Storm says his offer was sent to school so he will not receive it until Monday. He is considering joining his friend Jordan Whiting as a Buckeye commitment.

It sure looks like the 09 class is off to a great start. Especially the LB's. Whiting and likely Klein soon is awesome.

Considering?? When he asks his girlfriend "Will you marry me?" and she says she is considering it. He will look back at that statement and laugh.
Just say "YES! I WILL!"
Licking Valley is D3 Region 11.
Hoover is D1 region 2. |

Free update:
Bucknuts.com - Will Klein Soon Join Whiting As A 2009 OSU Commitment?
Quote:
Bucknuts had the news first that Jordan Whiting would commit to OSU as soon as he landed a written offer from the Bucks. So it was no surprise when Whiting announced on Saturday that he is a Buckeye. Storm Klein has said OSU is his big leader. What does Klein say about possibly soon joining Whiting as a Buckeye commitment?

"Ohio State is still my big leader," Klein said. "I'm just going with the flow right now. I'm still thinking about (committing to Ohio State). I still have tons of time left. It's just a matter of time. It could be tomorrow, it could be in a few months."
