Are we recruiting him as a linebacker or a fullback? And what is the scouting report on him?

He only has one offer (Bowling Green). One would think we could have waited a little while before giving out an offer.

Michigan, OSU like No. 2 fullback Houston

Dublin (Ohio) Scioto fullback William Houston has been doing it all for his high school team this year, and Big Ten teams are taking notice.

Houston, who already has a Bowling Green offer, has around 1,500 rushing yards, 500 receiving yards and 30 touchdowns this season through seven games. Those numbers have drawn the interest of Illinois, Louisville, Michigan, Michigan State, Ohio State, Penn State and Vanderbilt. Most of them are looking at him as a preferred walk-on, but some are still evaluating his senior film and could offer.

If it came down to going to Bowling Green as a walk-on or a BCS program, Houston is not sure which way he would go.

?That?s a tough one,? he said. ?I talked with my coach about that. He was saying that?s free school, paid by a school that wants you. But I have no idea.?

If Houston goes the walk-on route, Ohio State appears to be in as good a position as any to get the country?s No. 2 fullback. His father played for the Buckeyes and would like to see Houston follow his footsteps but will stand behind whichever decision he makes.

A scholarship has not been ruled out by the Ohio State staff either.

William Houston likes potential PSU role

William Houston (Dublin, Ohio/Dublin Scioto) is the No. 2 fullback in the country, but Penn State is telling him he could be a lot more in its offense. He saw that firsthand Saturday.

Houston could land a Penn State scholarship offer soon, and the Nittany Lions believe the 5-foot-11, 232-pound back could be a physical change-of-pace player in their backfield, similar to Zach Zwinak, who led the Lions with 12 carries and 42 yards this weekend.

?I saw Zach Zwinak, saw him go into the game for a couple series and saw what he did, and I?m fine with that,? Houston said. ?Anything I?m asked to do in college I?m fine with.?
