Ohio State offers TE-WR with a pedigree
August, 26, 2012
By Brad Bournival | ESPN.com

Austin Roberts (Carmel, Ind./Carmel) already has offers from Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Miami (Fla.), Northwestern, Purdue and Stanford.

On Sunday, Roberts picked up another big one when Ohio State offered a scholarship to the 6-foot-2, 195-pound tight end/wide receiver from the class of 2014.

?When I saw Ohio State for Friday Night Lights, it really gave me a great impression of how everything was,? Roberts said. ?It?s amazing. These offers are gargantuan. For them to offer me, it?s extremely exciting.?

Wow, very impressive. He plays a lot bigger than 196 pounds.

Aaron Hernandez comparisons for Urban Meyer TE recruits are pretty cliche, but it does seem to fit here somewhat. He is probably never going to be a 250 pound guy like your typical inline TE. But if he can get up into the 230s and keep his speed, he could be a big time player.

Recruiting guys like this as TE, just show how much meyer and the staff covet speed and mismatches at every position. Roberts can play, just needs to add some weight and work on his blocking a bit. But in all honesty I don't see him being used for purely blocking. Hes going to give LBs and safeties nightmares
