letabrotherspeak Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 They have 3 verbals as of now and have a huge recruiting weekend this weekend. They are trending very well for 4 kids from Ohio. Blue Smith Xavier Peters Brandon Bates Blaine Scott I believe the Reigelsperger may be visiting this weekend. Not positive on this. Blue Smith is a teammate of his. Ohio State's big recruiting guy just said UK in driver seat for L'Christian Smith from Ohio as well. Vince Marrow earns his money...

John Anthony Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 OSU is being honest with Smith telling him he's a TE in college. He doesn't want to hear that so they will let him walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColonelCrazy Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 OSU is being honest with Smith telling him he's a TE in college. He doesn't want to hear that so they will let him walk. What position does he want to play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walter Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Reigelsperger just committed to UK on Twitter...honestly surprised considering all of the "recruiting" he's been doing with other kids to try to get them to UC and being around UC program so much these past few weeks. Honestly where he ends up signing is all that matters. If Hawkins/Vann commit to UC in May, I could see him flipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Anthony Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 What position does he want to play? WR 100% Meyer has been honest and told him he projects to TE. 6'6" 240lbs by the time he's on the field is more than likely a TE. But you tell the kid what he wants to hear is you really want him.

letabrotherspeak Posted February 26, 2017 Author Share Posted February 26, 2017 Vince Marrow is really really good. UK is telling Smith the will play him at WR. Glad to see UK tapping into Florida to grab some kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RaiderPride5 Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I'm sure he will walk on to the basketball team as well (Smith). His shot at the pros is as a TE though. IMO (biased) but he'd maximize his value going to Ohio State and playing tight end. Doesn't have to be Ohio State, but TE is where he will make his money.

Walter Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 I don't see it. Don't underestimate Dad being a UC alum and former player as well as a lot of family ties to the UC staff...Many around Hawkins' recruitment have said UC is currently his leader, despite the big time offers he holds. As far as Blue Smith goes...I'm going to guess Riegelsperger committing to UK helps them with him but UC giving him the opportunity to be an impact contributor on both the gridiron and hardwood is what they are trying to sell him on. He plans to visit UC soon for a hoops visit. There are going to be a lot of battles between the two programs as long as Marrow is at UK and UC has the current staff that they have under Fickell. Easy to get excited over a February commitment but all that matters is who the kid signs with 11 months from now. See Michael Warren as a perfect example. A lot of pressure is put on these kids to commit on their visits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of pressure is put on these kids to commit on their visits. He's too big for UC in my opinion. And as far as Smith/Reigelsperger goes, UC has to take one first to get the light on them. I have Smith going to UK unless Ohio State tells him he will get a shot at WR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
