It isnt like I am really going out on a limb here...Ginn, Rose, Small, etc. all did and said the same things as Scott, coud be the very reason why those others schools arent even bothering to offer, they know where Scott is going to go...

This is more of a Wad question as I noted in Fred Smith's thread that he thinks Cordale moves to D @ tOSU...

Just curious why you think that?

Most film I have seen of him has been on the offensive side of the ball - few of the shots have been on D. He reminds me of Dwayne Jarrett in terms of build and body control and for the life of me, I can't see this kid on D...

Then again, I have a hard time seeing Eugene Clifford on D...I think Genie will be a WR, so what do I know.

He struggled with his routes and hands in some recent camps, including the two scout.com camps I attended.

Gene can play well both ways imo... and proved many (me too) wrong about CB... but I think he was born to be a head hunter at safety.

What jwins said...based on what I have been told (by jwins and others) Cordale does not show the fluidity and route running ability of a kid who projects as a college WR. What he does show is the freakish athleticism and frame to be a smash mouth safety, if he doesn't end up growing all the way into a OLB.

Agreed wade (didn't want to come off negative). Cordale is raw but the potential is certainly there, on defense, especially with his athleticism for his size.

It takes a special WR to hang with the likes of Posey & Stoneburner, let alone 3-4 years worth of WR recruits already on campus.

Is this why staff wants to take another WR in this class in addition to Scott, Posey, and Stoney??

Im guessing there is some question about Scott and even Stoneburner sticking at the WR position...

I like what I see from Scott at safety or OLB.. He has good closing speed and can hit

Regardless of where he ends up, it's looking like the 09 Ohio class is pretty loaded, especially if Desmar plays football

I dont think we'll have any problems fielding a lethal WR core in the future

I agree w/ you - Posey has proved to be an elite HS wideout and his sky is the limit. Stoneburner as well.

Getting back to 'Dale, any chance that a redshirt year or two under Coach Hazell changes that and refines his abilities?

Not trying to contradict what you or anyone else is saying, but how many 6'5" safeties are there? Also, at 185 pounds on a 6'5" frame, there's a lot of beef (absolute minimum 40 pounds, 60 pounds would be ideal) that would need to be put on to reach LB size, IMO. Again, not doubting you or anyone else mentioning those positions as options for Cordale, but it would seem with his build that any move to defense would seem to be at corner...
