I really like this kid at DE. His first step is incredibly fast with his strength he is really tough to stop.

He said he would like to play LB or FB in college.

Which really doesn't matter...if he wants to play at OSU it is going to be at DE/DT.

I would say that if we go after him it is going to be for DT. We are loaded at those other positions and are in on some big names.

I think he is going to have to show what he can do come camp time if he wants to garner an offer.

what is his weight up to now? he needs to add some serious mass to make a move to DT.

Alot of schools are recruiting him for defensive tackle, so I think he can easily add the weight to move inside, otherwise they would be recruiting him as a DE or LB. We're not talking about a Gabe Watson or Barksdale 315 lb. kid, he'll most likely be like Pitcock and Penton, a healthy 285-295.

He was listed at 230 lbs. at the beginning of his junior year, so hes probably up to around 250 now.

Joey says Michigan, Northwestern, Ohio State and Penn State are his favorites and he would love to be a Buckeye. He did say that sometimes the Buckeyes wait too long to offer and he must do what is best for him.

This is what I was trying to say last night in the Washington thread (I probably came across poorly and I apologize)

I think there was a lot of confusion going on in that thread. The point is that I am like most Buckeye fans...I would love to take every talented kid who grew up a Buckeye fan. But that just simply isn't the way things are done. I hope D'Andrea gets an offer probably as much as HotMic hopes Washington gets an offer, but it remains to be seen whether or not that will happen. Washington is one of the top WRs in MI and D'Andrea is one of the top DL in OH but it does not mean they will get offers. They will have some work to do this summer at camp.
