From the UNC site. Bell says that he and teammate Corey Brown's visit to North Carolina went great. Bell adds that he and Brown will take all their visits together, and will likely go to the same college.

Oh great... Another "package deal" from Gateway.

Pitts Tribune
Quote:
Rivals.com rates Bell the nation's No. 14 prospect overall, even though the spotlight shined mostly on Pitt recruits Shayne Hale and Cameron Saddler in 2007.
Bell and Brown each have more than 20 scholarship offers, not only drawing Pitt, Penn State and West Virginia but also Florida State, Miami, Michigan and Ohio State.
"Dorian Bell, measurable-wise, has everything," Scout.com recruiting analyst Bob Lichtenfels said. "He plays the game and doesn't talk or showboat, but every time you watch a game you see No. 25. His awareness is off the charts. He's always around the ball and seldom makes mistakes.

Not to mention a well placed flipper to shed while still maintaining separation and balance. Play after play had me saying wow and thinking of Freddie Lenix a few years ago...Dorian's main issue, if you want to call it that, is that he is a "tweener" right now.
Another stud from Gateway.

Change of direction and explosion is exactly what I love about Jamie Wood's film as well...the thought of a defense with kids like Storm, Jordan, Dorian, Jamie, CJ, etc. seems almost too good to be true...would love to see OSU make a serious play for Dorian. Call me cautiously guarded at this early stage given our recent history with Gateway prospects...but that does not mean I am not optimistic. This one will likely play out for close to a year... |
