WR Brian Robiskie (Official Thread)

It's pretty encouraging that we are tied with Miami and he hasn't even been down for an official.

The Canes picking up a verbal from WR LaVar Lobdell out of Syracuse, NY yesterday also helps matters.

Lobdell commits to Miami and now David Nelson, former ND-commit under Ty, has pledged to Florida. Another step in the right direction toward Robiskie being a Buckeye.

Anyone have a feel on how good this recruit could be at the next level? Any chance of him playing DB? Seems like he could have been grabbed up a lot earlier and I know we were pushing for a few other that didn't work out, just makes me wonder about his abilities.

Everything that I've read quoted from Robiskie as well as by others has been nothing but positive, up-beat comments! He's definitely a "Tressel" type player. I really hope we land him. I'd much rather have a level headed, mature 3 star recruit on the team than a 5 star head case.

Remember its not how many recruiting stars you have, its how many Buckeye leaves you get!:biggrin:

I hope he comes to Ohio State I have been hoping he would get an offer all year.

Sounds like a good kid with his head on right. He just turned 17 so he still has some growing to do as well. I think he will be a good player at Ohio State.

You can't go wrong with the son of a coach, especially an NFL coach. That probably means that this kid is technically sound. For those that wonder about his ability, why would Florida and Miami be all over him also? Pull the trigger Robiskie, become a Buckeye!

I think some people are not high on him because rivals or some other site doesn't have him at 4 or 5 stars. He could be the same player and with 4 stars and everybody would be pumped. He looks like an excellent player and I would be glad to get him on the Buckeyes.

Tigers' Robiskie narrows choices
The school that Brian Robiskie had an interest in early on came through with a big play for him late.
Ohio State, which had recruited the Chagrin Falls wide receiver then backed off, made a scholarship offer late last week, Robiskie said.
"Early in the process, they were recruiting me, but they were real honest with me and said they already had two receivers coming," Robiskie said. "Then they called me and said they were trying to move people around - maybe make one of them a DB. I talked to Coach (Jim) Tressel and talked to Coach (co-defensive coordinator Mel) Tucker, and they said they had a scholarship for me."
Robiskie, the son of Browns interim head coach Terry Robiskie, is visiting Ohio State this weekend. The other finalist for his services is Miami (Fla.), which he visited last weekend.
"That's what it pretty much comes down to, those are the two," Robiskie said. "I'm comfortable with both."
Tressel visited Chagrin Falls on Monday, Robiskie said, and met with his family.
Robiskie, 6-foot-4, 195 pounds, caught 47 passes for 754 yards and 14 touchdowns last fall and was a first-team All-Ohio selection.

wdg01's article appeared in the local paper today (Lake County News Herald) which covers Chagrin Falls. I can't read anything here except that Brian has gotten what he's been hoping for all along. I'd be surprised as hell if he leaves C-Bus today without giving his verbal. I'd call him a lock.
