Best prospects I saw this weekend:

2 - Kyle Kalis - I bet some of you thought this spot was going to be reserved for Braxton Miller or Shaq Washington. I pay attention to line play. Kalis should not be allowed to play against high school players. What he does to opponents borders on assault. He beats up the opposition. In a great division one championship game St. Edward came from behind to win the game. All of a sudden it seemed to turn St. Edward way. I think it was the commitment to the run where Kalis and Northwestern bound Geoff Mogus and MAC offered Brandon Jackson started to wear down the undersized Wayne defense. I don't like to project offensive linemen to play as freshman. Kalis is one that I think can. Love the nasty. Love the motor. One of the ten best offensive line prospects I have seen in Ohio during my years of evaluating players.

Kalis is going to be a good one indeed. Kid just gets after it, great frame, excptional run blocker and can really move his feet and get downfield. I think his future is bright as a RT.

TomVH: OL Kyle Kalis Offered Yesterday. | mgoblog

Ohio State commit OL Kyle Kalis (6'5", 300 lbs) from St. Edward High School in Ohio was offered by Michigan yesterday. This is the second Ohio State commit (RB Bri'onte Dunn) to receive a Michigan offer. However, this one might be different.

Michigan is also recruiting his St. Edward teammates TE Sam Grant, DT Greg Kuhar, and OL Tyler Orlosky who all have offers. Here's what Kyle had to say about the offer and the future.

I was offered by Michigan yesterday. I'm pretty much set on Ohio State, but my mind is still open at this point. I talked to Coach Funk yesterday and he said they would have offered me when I was 15 if they were the coaches here. He said they really want me, they really need me, and how excited they are to get to know me. They want me to come up to see Michigan and get the blue carpet treatment.

Kalis said he's pretty much set on Ohio State, but as the conversation went on he told me more about would could potentially transpire in the future, especially with his teammates.

I might go up there with either Sam [Grant] or [Greg] Kuhar sometime. I think they like Michigan, and I know that [Tyler] Orlosky is definitely the most interested. Me and Orlosky are very close and we've always talked about playing together at the next level somewhere, so time will tell. I know Orlosky is a Michigan fan and excited to get up there to see what they're all about. I think I'll definitely give [Michigan] a chance to recruit me and I'll see where my teammates go.

Michigan has some work cut out for them if they'd like to land more than one St. Edward prospect. It sounds like Tyler Orlosky could be a big help with Michigan landing a few of his teammates, and they all happen to be at positions of need. I wouldn't get too excited about this yet, since Ohio State is very good at keeping kids committed, but it's definitely interesting to hear. We'll see what happens.

Last year we would have said Michigan was wasting paper by sending him an offer...now they're just wasting air/bandwidth. Wonder if Mattison told him he could be the next Ray Lewis.
