DB Shaun Wade (1st Team All American, New England Patriots)

Malcolm Jenkins made a pretty huge impact at corner as a true freshman, I think if Conley and Lattimore leave, there's no reason to think Wade can't potentially make a big impact and get a lot of playing time. We had 4 corners who had a lot of playing time this year in Conley, Lattimore, Ward, and Arnette. Keeps their legs fresh throughout games. Wade and Holmes if we get him could be in line for that kind of role at least I think.

I think this should go into the the recruiting thread as well... Lets stop the "OMG he's gonna start and play a ton of downs as freshman" ... Bottom line we wont know until game one, folks could get injured, could be slow to adapt to the new system, might struggle with academics... I really wish this would chill. I'm super happy all these guys are gonna be Buckeyes and they may become uber stud freshman but they might not and that's ok too..

I see this stated a lot. Pace beat out an established Korey Stringer at LT, moving him to RT. I don't know if Jordan beating out Knox and Burrell at a guard position, who apparently didn't pan out, compares to that. Please note that I am in no way diminishing Jordan's accomplishment. I just don't see a Pace comparison.

I wasn't comparing him to Pace

It was 2011; the less we remember the better

My memory has been erased. 2011 is foreign language to me.

Excited for both players here, no doubt. But is it me, or does Wade look almost a full foot taller than Tate in those pictures? Has to be off at least a little bit because Wade at most is 6'3.
