I must not be edumacated...I thought I did a search for him and came up with nothing.

One more thing about John...he is going to fill the roll that Jim Ramella had last year. Jim was a heck of a football player.

John Ryan

</TD><TD noWrap width=3></TD><TD vAlign=top>Ryan Getting Heavy Interest
By Duane Long
Date: Apr 5, 2005

Cleveland St. Ignatius is always loaded with fine players, and the best one this year could be defensive end John Ryan. Duane Long caught up with Ryan, who already has some impressive offers.

John Ryan (6-5, 240) of Cleveland St. Ignatius could be Ohio's top defensive end prospect this year. Yesterday, Ryan received his biggest offer to date as he was offered by Notre Dame.

"Yes, Coach Weis called yesterday at the school," Ryan said. "I was over there for their junior day."

Ryan has been surprised so far with the recruiting process.

"It's all hit so fast," he said. "It's gotten really crazy. I'm going to wait for a little while until my feet hit the ground again and start thinking about making a decision."

Among Ryan's other offers are Boston College, Syracuse, and Michigan State, and Ryan is also interested in Maryland. BC and Maryland are recruiting Ryan as a tight end and defensive end, while Notre Dame and Syracuse like him at defensive end.

Ryan singled out two of those schools as being at the top of his list.

"Really it's Notre Dame and Boston College," he said. "I'm a Catholic kid from the Midwest."

Ryan did not seem to know what he would do regarding camps this summer, but he does think he may have a decision around that time.

"I'm not in a hurry, but I really would like to have this over with by the time the season starts," he said.

Ohio State does not seem to be showing as much interest in Ryan. In a recent update by Mike Frank of IrishEyes.com, Ryan said "Ohio State is a great school, and I’d be interested in hearing from them, but they haven’t had a lot of interest so far."

Ryan likely be one of the top 25 overall prospects in the state of Ohio this year when the new top 100 is revealed in the May issue of Ohio High Magazine.

Ryan Still Undecided
By Mike Frank
Date: May 4, 2005

Cleveland, Ohio defensive end John Ryan is down to his final two schools. The 6-5, 230-pound Ryan is trying to make his final decision, but the Cleveland St. Ignatius star is having trouble doing just that. We spoke with Ryan on Tuesday to get the latest on his decision.
Ryan says Notre Dame and Boston College are even at this point.

tOSU has not shown serious interest in the Ignatius prospects (Kirbus, Parris, Ryan) except an invite to junior day. As a result, I think that the three have put the Buckeyes on the backburner and focused on the schools who have been more proactive. Ryan especially seems out of the equation.

We move on today with our countdown of the Ohio High top 100 with players 11-20. On this portion of the list, we find a quarterback on the rise, a couple of the state's top overall athletes, and we start to get into the great offensive line prospects everyone is talking so much about.

Ryan is considered the #17 player in Ohio for 2006. John has run a 4.7 forty.
