Rivals has their first top 10 juniors list out. Players of interest...

3. Josh Oglesby, OT
5. Deonte Thompson, WR
6. Ronald Johnson, CB
8. Ben Martin, DE

(thanks to HilmerJ for pointing this out)

We could very well be in the top 3 teams for each of those guys and top 2 for Martin.

That would be amazing if we could land those guys.

Ogelsby was at camp last year and might be there this year. Opace is his favorite player. Johnson will be at camp also.

Thompson and Martin situations have been well documented in thier threads.

Just looking on the pre-evaluation top 100 on Rivals and didn't realize how many targets we had in it. They are:
DB Dionte Allen
WR Arrelious Benn
DB Eric Berry
RB John Clay
LB Andrew Dailey
OL Anthony Davis
RB Darren Evans
ATH Eversen Griffen
RB Robert Hughes
DB Ronald Johnson
DE Ben Martin
RB Dale Martin
OL Josh Oglesby
S Nate Oliver*
TE Mike Ragone
QB Tyrod Taylor
WR Deonte Thompson
ATH Devon Torrence
RB Morgan Williams
- That's 19 with one commited and I'm sure we might get a few more in the top 100 in the future.

I think we will land a couple from that list, but a guy like Dailey will not be on the regular season top 100.

I hope we get in on the big guy from Jenkins high school soon.
Also would like to see us get in on Ernest McCoy the kid from Belle Glades. If we could pull a package of him and Thompson off that would be amazing.

I edited the first post to show all the guys with offers.

We only have 22 offers out to guys right now, and have only identified and offered 8 guys in the past month and a half.

I think we only have a real fighting chance on maybe half the 22 guys. I we are going to see a flurry of offers go out sometime with in maybe the next month. I would reall like the staff to use the momentum from spring practice, spring game and the hype of going into next season as a top 5 or even top ranked team in the country. Then after that we will have the momentum of all the guys gettting drafted in the Draft and probably about a half dozen guys going on the first day of the draft and a hanful of first rounders.

Then we have the nike camp in columbus which I would hope they would use as a recruiting tool and then on into summer camps. I think the staff is going to do a lot of evaluating at camp this year.
