Awesome talent and from an annually stacked team from a great area in the nation for talent. Would love to get in on some of the south east VA talent from va beach, Norfolk, Hampton, Phoebus, Chesapeake, etc

That's a very strong statement.
Kid has great length...very similar to Noah Spence. Great wingspan and has good body control while using his hands effectively. I also refer everyone to this scouting report:

Sweat is a long, lean athlete who really fires off the ball. He has tremendous quickness and very active hands. Despite weighing only 230 pounds, Sweat is deceptively strong and plays with good leverage. The combination of all the aforementioned things allow Sweat to completely overwhelm most offensive linemen at the high school level. Overall, Sweat may have the most upside of any prospect in the East Region. - Michael Clark

That scouting report hits the nail on the head, IMO, and echoes what I was thinking while watching his film. Lean kid, but he just man handles some of the competition....not to mention his quickness :yow2:. I'd LOVE Ohio State to land Josh....add some beef to those long arms & I think he has some serious potential.

I'm simply stating my opinion...I have 3-5 guys I'm still trying to sort out how I rank them at the top but Josh is in that group. If you don't like my opinion, feel free to share yours...

I'm not doubting, I'm just looking at the talent in 2015 that were in on and its a pretty big lists. Jacques Patrick, Sosa Jamabo, Torrance Gibson, Tim settle, minkah Fitzpatrick, Justin Hilliard and Jerome baker all come to my mind as important to this class. If in your opinion you're including josh, than I trust what you're saying. But it'd be sweet to add him to that list

Rivals $ - Sweat a big Buckeye target

12/27

By Givler...has been in touch with coaches Vrabel and Smith...says he is very open-minded right now...wants to visit Virginia Tech, Florida State, Ohio State, and Georgia and talks about what he is looking for in a school.

FYI, Givler had him as the #1 DE on his 2015 defensive big board...just sayin'.
