Thank you. The UW campus is amazing, especially in a week or two when all the cherry trees will be blooming. Between hiking with the hiking club, exploring Seattle's culture with the light rail and bus systems, and dining at the remarkably diverse restaurants on University Ave. (the UW version...

Anecdotal, but...My son was just accepted to the University of Washington this fall, so I am keeping up on the goings on at UW. Despite the fact that King County is the epicenter of the COVID-19 outbreak in the US right now and that UW has all but closed campus and moved everyone to online...

Yet, based on his junior season---or lack thereof---not altogether surprising.

Hopefully that is true. Justin Zwick's career was put behind the eight-ball because of the sieve he had to work behind as a senior at Massillon. His technique never recovered from that experience.

Trey Leroux is also supposed to enroll early. At least, that was true as of two months ago, per a 247 article.

That is actually his dad's tweet. That said, the fact that his son is as classy as his dad says a lot about both of them. Along with virtually same name, it definitely explains the confusion.

Mexican kid we recruited out of el Ciudad de Middletown

There has been some mention that he was looking at taking a two-year mission right out of high school. I'm not sure whether that is still on the table.

I hope Day is looking at grad transfer for depth, if not to start. The top two on the market currently appear to be RJ Proctor from UVA and Ean Pfeifer from Vandy, both of whom have starting experience. UCLA's Justin Murphy would be in the conversation as well, but his knees are shot.

His left tackle last season was Tyler Vrabel, Mike Vrabel's son. Not sure that helps Ohio State any, but worth mentioning.

With the commitments of Wray and Proctor today, that is two more states from which OSU has invaded. I can't recall any players from Tennessee or Oklahoma previously (Vonn Bell played in GA, and the only kid we've landed from OK was Kevin Johnson, a JUCO originally from GA). By my reckoning...

He reminds me a lot of Drushaun Humphrey. Humphrey was recruited as a tailback, but he was so raw that I questioned whether he could excel it it in college (and as we know, he tragically never had the chance). Thomas is quite similar in that he has a big body, is a great athlete, but is quite...

Liam McCullough's brother is also a long-snapper and in the 2018 class. Just sayin'

I was impressed with his film. Good feet and has some nastiness.
