Here's the report that references him.

...I have found a number of players in the class to make up for that disappointment including a great looking lineman that if he isn't a great defensive tackle he is sure to be a great offensive tackle. His name is Donovan Clark from Cincinnati Finneytown.

His film.

2011 redux - Duane Long's OSU Buckeyes Football Report

5. Donovan Clark 6-5 260 DT/OL Cincinnati Finneytown
He could be as high as #3 on this list by the time it matters.

I assume he is the same as this guy? Might want to merge.

[wadc45]

Didn't find it because Duane had his name spelled differently than Berk did...

[ant80]

The original link I posted to the duane long report doesn't work, persumably because the site has been recently redesigned. He spelt the name as Donavon in that report. Certainly is confusing. I hope we got the name spelt right this time.

It's nice to hear about a top Cincinnati prospect who is a Buckeye fan for a change.

Whoa whoa whoa, there a good number of prospects that are Buckeye fans from down here in Cincinnati, but they rarely get looks from the Buckeye staff. The Buckeye staff tends to get on players later down here than the rest of Ohio, and by the time they give some of the kids attention they are already looking at other schools! You'd be surprised at how many OSU gear is worn at all the elite HS school's games. Its surprising to see a top recruit from Cincinnati from Finneytown though, they're not known at all for their athletics really.

I realize that a lot of prospects down there are Buckeye fans. It just seems like this year is a struggle with a lot of the Cincy area guys OSU has gone after (Hicks, James, Ware, Welch, Hendrix) so it's nice to hear that Clark is a professed Buckeye fan. Hopefully he turns out to be a big-time prospect worthy of a Buckeye offer and accepts.

The BPRT has info from multiple sources that Clark is looking good for an OSU offer...hope that info comes to fruition sooner rather than later.

[westbuck04]

Which side of the ball do you guys like him on?

[ant80]

I think he'd make a great RT.

DT all the way, IMO.

Sweet! Looks like we may be able to fill the 2011 D-line class exclusively with Ohio recruits. Hayes-Miller-Mihalek-Rock-Clark
