FYI, from what I read, neither of the two players Graham was "recruiting" have offers from OSU...

Are they ME and GC?

Let's see Graham's a QB, recruiting two players that don't have scholly. I'm going to go with a TE and WR, one in-state the other in a Big Ten state.

Premium info but the interesting part is Graham being compared to Stanford QB Andrew Luck.

Lots of positive reviews from the Top Gun event and I'm wondering if another bump up in ranking may be coming. I am getting really excited to see how Taylor does this season.

Here was TheStoicPaisano's review from the top gun thread in case anyone missed it.

Wheaton (Ill.) Wheaton North quarterback and Ohio State commitment Taylor Graham looks a lot like his father, former NFLer Kent.



Graham has a cannon of an arm.

I love that form. Looks like he'll be a good one.

The Duane Long Report

Graham is another matter. He throws the ball so effortlessly. Tight spirals and could put the ball anywhere they asked him to. He threw a touchdown pass that was straight out of a highlight film. The receiver made a great play but it took a great ball too. 3 defenders get back. They are arranged so there is a hole. If the receiver does not read it this is an inconsequential incompletion. If Graham throws it anywhere else it is likely to be intercepted. He drops it perfectly in the only spot where his receiver can make the play. Nearly 50 yards in the air with a flick of the wrist. Perfect touch on the ball. Alot of people, including me, are anointing Braxton Miller the heir apparent. What Graham has done since spring is make himself a national top 10 quarterback prospect, and he could be the steal of the class. Anointing Miller is premature. I have been talking about upgrading the quarterback position. This is a definite move to make that happen. Add Miller and I can't say I remember a time when we were in a better situation at quarterback.
