Covington Holy Cross Derrick Barnes committed

You can't appreciate how big and strong he is until you see him in a basketball uni.

@Clyde ,

 

I agree. Saw him this past Spring in track and was impressed by his physique.

 

The thing about this player that is most impressive is his speed. Ran a 4.73 laser this summer at 241 pounds.

Congrats to this young man. Toledo has been very active lately. Got a commit from a nice WR up in Springboro too. They saw my son at a UC camp and asked him come up to Toledo for their camp in June. Called and offered him 15 minutes later on the way home from camp.

 

 

Nice. Where does your boy attend school?

He's at Ryle, Junior OL, Parker Bisek

Holy Cross has a few big guys sporting those 20's. Congrats, I can only imagine how dominant he is at the AA level.

He also ran a 4.5 at the Ohio state camp.

Koserski says Barnes is still considering an offer from Purdue. Anyone have an idea if this came before or after Brohm?

 

He had an offer from WKU from Brohm this summer so he probably offered it from Purdue once he got there is my guess.

[Content1]

Nice position to be in: help Brohm rebuild the Boilermakers or slide into an already well established MAC program???

 

Wishing the young man continued success whichever route he chooses!

[HCalumni32]

Correct. Derrick is committed to Toledo right now, but he is still highly considering Purdue.

[Samcro]

Purdue offers a great education, a more marketable diploma, and the challenge of playing in one of the top conferences in the country. But, best wishes for finding the program that fits best for him. Good luck Derrick!

[Oldercoach]

He's a bull that can excel wherever he decides.

[Samcro]

Would love to see HC send a young man to the Big Ten. But again, best wishes for picking the right situation for him.
