Not sure why they would evaluate Mewhort as an OT... He plays inside exclusively in H.S. and I believe that is the plan for him here as well...

it's the typical lame scout.com initial rankings. rank by recruit location, sort by actual talent later.

Scout.com: 2009 Midwest Top 100

As we approach the end of the signing period for the class of 2008, it's time to unleash the newest set of rankings for the class of 2009. This class does not appear to be as deep as it has been in previous years, but there is still plenty of talent to go around.

Couple things of note...
I know it is just one highlight film, but not sure I understand all the hype for Edwin Baker...#2 player in the midwest? Ahead of Simon, Campbell, Drummond, etc...
Don't get me wrong he looks like a very good back, but not 5 star type player IMO from watching the film...I would have him as number 5 player in the state of Michigan behind Campbell, Jackson, Sims, and Caper...
Also I don't think it is out of the question to land 11-14 of the top 30...
The toughest I think are going to be James Jackson, Melvin Fellows, and JT Turner, but there isn't any reason why we couldn't land all three...14 of the top 30 would just be dominating...
Marcus Hall (GVille)
John Simon
CJ Barnett
Melvin Fellows (maybe??)
Jordan Whiting
James Jackson (top 3)
Storm Klein
Chris Fields
Chris Watt (favorite?)
JT Turner (50/50 us and Michigan)
Jon Newsome (GVille)
Corey Linsley (soon?)
Jack Mewhort
Jamie Wood

Updated my post now that 20-39 have been added...
I noted some guys I thought were reated too low (and would also include just about all of the Wisconsin verbal in that list). I thought Bryce McNeal and Leon Hill were two guys rated a touch high but it's tough to argue with any of the rankings at this point (although I agree 100% with what CBF40 says above about Baker).
