From email: tOSU has made a great early impression and is working this one hard. A way to go yet, but Seantrel is very interested in tOSU.

Thanks for the update and this is great news. I wonder if Shugarts could play guard if Henderson comes this way? I love J.B. at RT but I would imagine a guy like Henderson would be tough to keep off the field.

Shugarts is two years ahead of him. Ideally, he'd be so good he'd declare early so Henderson could start as a soph. :biggrin:

Should we not count on Seantrel being a Trojan lean? Sean said that USC was the main attraction... I don't know what kind of signal Seantrel needed but we either sent a really good one or a really bad one.

Just need a level to gage this recruitment on... i'm going with 'trust the coaches' on this particular one :lol:

Wow!
Carafel's statement made public 2nd hand is harmful PR that CW will have to battle before the rest of the fruit rots on that poisoned tree.

I doubt it has any effect whatsoever.

Each recruit is different and each make their own decision based upon where they feel most comfortable and where they think they can be most productive. Also there are non-public reasons why Carufel disliked ND. Furthermore ND has a long positive relationship with the people at Cretin-Derham Hall so I tend to think Mr. Henderson will get an overall balanced view of ND.

Finally last year Carufel told Michael Floyd not to go to ND because he had a bad experience there. Floyd paid him no mind and told him 'that's you. I'm different'. I think of the two (Carufel/Floyd) Floyd's influence, if there is any, with Henderson (former teammate) and experience at ND will be much greater.

You know more than I do, about the relationship between Floyd/Carufel, the friendship and influence factors there.
I agree that each recruit is different and does make there own decision. That is why your comparison of influence between Floyd and Carufel vs. Henderson and Carufel is not as compelling as it should be.

He talks about being friends with former ND OL Matt Carufel and how Matt wouldn't recommend ND for his college destination.

Maybe I am reading too much into the quote, i.e. that he "is friends with Carufel" rather than a "that's you, I'm different" dismissal ala Floyd of Carufel's counsel.

To dismiss or interpret "being friends" as "I doubt it has any effect whatsoever," strains the context of Henderson's update.

Rivals.com Football Recruiting - Henderson among the nation's top juniors (free)

OT Seantrel Henderson, 6-8/301, Cretin-Derham Hall (2010 class)
ASSETS: Has tremendous size, excellent feet, speed and great pad level for a big lineman.
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT: Technically he is very sound but he could be a tad more aggressive and nasty.
MOST IMPRESSIVE PLAY: Just watching this behemoth run around the field; I would guess he is a sub-5.0 40-yard guy.
CONCLUSION: There is no doubt in my mind that this is a top-20 player in the nation for next year's class. He is a definite five-star prospect who currently has twelve written offers from BCS schools.

OT SEANTREL HENDERSON (6-8/301), Saint Paul (Minn.) Cretin-Derham Hall
2010 PROSPECT
CONSIDERING:
To be determined.
PERFORMANCE: Helped pave the way for St. Paul (Minn.) Cretin-Derham Hall's offense in a 42-12 victory over White Bear Lake (Minn.) High.
STRENGTHS: Henderson already is at a size that he can compete at the next level. He is extremely mobile and runs better than any lineman I have seen this season. He also has excellent pad level and uses his hands at the point of attack.
WEAKNESSES: The only weakness I could see was that he could be a little more aggressive and nasty. - BARRY EVERY

FVSports - The Elite100: Class of 2010

2. Seantrel Henderson
6'8" / 300 pounds / Offensive Tackle / Cretin-Derham Hall / St. Paul, Minnesota
Contenders: Notre Dame, Ohio State, Florida, Minnesota, USC
Scouting Report: One of the best HS offensive linemen this decade. Physical attributes are obvious. Carries his weight extremely well. Great wingspan and uses it to his advantage. What separates Henderson from his peers is how he moves on the field. A skilled basketball player who brings that athleticism to football. Has lateral quickness and body control that is rare is for a 300-pounder at any level. Great knee bend, essential considering his height. As far as pass protection goes, Henderson is as good as it gets. Great run blocker, but probably won't be dominant at the next two levels, needs to develop an edge. More of a finesse lineman in both attitude and technique. In terms of potential comparisons, more Walter Jones than Orlando Pace.
