Kettering LB Chris Borland instantly committed to Wisconsin after receiving an offer at camp. His father is from Madison, grandfather went to UW, and he has a lot of family there, so Wisconsin was his dream school. His dad posts on the Wisconsin Rivals' site and he's been lobbying for UW to offer for months. Anybody have an opinion on Borland? I don't even know where Kettering is in Ohio or how difficult the competition is. Reach offer for a legacy or not? Basically the entire film is him playing on offense so I can't glean an informed opinion.

Kettering is a suberb of Dayton and the competition is pretty good down there. Not up to the level it is in Cincinnati, but still solid and it has produced some very good players. I don't know anything about him as a player, but if he can standout against that competition he can definitely play. Other schools such as Trotwood-Madison, Centerville, Clayton Northmont, Dayton-Chaminade, Piqua and Middletown and located fairly close that you may have heard of. If I'm not mistaken Kettering Alter is also the same high school as former Buckeye, current New York Jet, Nick Mangold.

He has camped well this year and earned MVP Honors at the Nike Training Camp in May and his measurables are fairly decent. I don't know what the standards are for UW when recruiting LBs or their need for them but he seems like a decent player with skills. He is also very versatile from what I've seen. |

Kettering plays some decent teams. Not quite on par with the tops in the state, but solid nonetheless. Lakota West, Alter, Centerville, Wayne, and Northmont are all on their schedule for this year. They're in the Greater Western Ohio Conference, which also includes notables like Trotwood-Madison, Troy, and Springboro. All of those schools have produced D1 talent at some point or another.

Can anyone tell me anything about Audrey Walker of Glenville? He may be the biggest freshman I've ever seen!

Isn't Walker the freshman in the picture alongside Hall! I can't find the link, but if he is the one, he is HUGE!! I am sure he is on the Staffs radar looking forward!!
