Disagree. If a kid moves better, is stronger and wins one on ones against stronger completion than those being offered, I would call that a lock. It comes down to one measurable holding him back.

 

Unless a coach directly told a player 'I will offer you if you lose this much weight and run this 40 time' there is no such thing as a 'lock'. Even that isn't a 'lock' because the coach still has to come through on the offer.

I believe by the end of football season Olmstead will be picking where he wants to play college football.

You are correct, to a certain point. He will have multiple options available to him, just aren't sure how many of those may be of the D1 variety. I'd have to assume, with no facts to back it up, he's somewhere on the board for several schools and an offer would depend on how the list above him plays out.

His weight has been identified as the issue preventing d1a programs from offering. He needs to drop about 30 lbs to get to 295.

 

He will own the school power clean and bench records tomorrow. He runs a 4.8 shuttle , despite being 325 lbs. He wins 90% of his camp one on one reps. He has been recognized by both Nike and Rivals The weight issue will be taken care of during the dead period and he will resume his camp schedule in July.

Hope it works out for Grant/Barry/Christian and they get some D1 offers.

All these spread offenses need lineman that can move.

But then you have power offenses, like Stanford. that put 7 340 lb O linemen on the field at once. I wish these people would publish recruiting standards rather than keep us all guessing.

The 'standard' is pretty well defined. What we don't know is who will choose which school and where your player is on the big board, and what that schools needs are.

Stanford still uses a good amount of pro style sets, where they need the old school bulldozers. But even their athletes can move it's crazy.

True, and I guess the needs ebb and flow as the top prospects make final decisions, which of course filters down to everyone else waiting behind them. It will all get figured out in the end and hopefully the NKY players will get offers to places they want to attend.
