'05 FL RB Conredge Collins (Pitt signee)

look at the similarities between UF,NCSt, and FSU--pass dominant teams...


don't think OSU's staff won't point that out to Conredge...

I think we'll have a good shot, I don't think his talent takes a back seat to JG on any terms..

With his Dad playing in New England, I would guess CC has spent some time in cold weather:wink2:

Doesnt Pepper Johnson coach with the Patriots? Maybe he is working on CC's dad a little about the benefits of OSU over NCState or FSU..... What these guys fail to understand is the broad reach of the OSU Football community/family that will take care of you for life. Hopefully that will be pointed out / reinforced during his visit. I would love to see him blown away on his visit.

HH says he is most likely staying in FL but just getting him up for a visit is huge and could definitely change things....

Well Speed isn't everything. If Collins can be a slobberknocker when he runs and lay some wood thats what we want. Imagine Dionte Johnson blocking for Conredge Collins...it brings a smile to my face thinking about those poor linebackers.

I would think that 4.6 is plenty fast for a TB in this offense. His coach says it was 4.53 at the Nike camp he attended, and it could get down to 4.5 by the time he arrives somewhere in August.

That's fine speed. It might be a half-tick slower than Gwaltney, but ...

Both Gwaltney and Collins appear to have been touchdown machines, too. That's big in my book.

From BN. He cancelled his trip to Fla and said he might not even go now. OSU is his #1 because of the depth chart. OSU looks really good here.
To add to Folanator, Conredge said, "Ohio State plays the kind of ball that I want to play." He is unsure about Florida's new offense and how he would fit into that.

Wow, great news. Either he or Gwaltney would be nice for our offense next to our current backs (Pittman and Haw) and Wells. Great News!!! Stud RB... RB!!!... with great bloodlines. Today has been shaping up very nicely for us Buckeyes. Come to Columbus Coredge.... come and be a part of our tremendous program.

Not to nitpick here but he cancelled his trip to FSU [no reason given] and isnt sure he fits into the new offense at FL. It appears something might have happened on the FSU side and he isnt sure if he will reschedule.

I agree this sounds good for OSU but keep in mind NCState is still involved and he hasnt removed FSU from his list. The weather could be a factor [he says 50 degrees is cold!!!] but I would hope someone would remind him that 40% of the NFL teams play in cold weather at some point.

I am cautiously optimistic...

HH any new input here?
