Put him at full back.

Maybe I missed it but where on that site does it say he was recruited by Youngstown State?

Nowhere, but he tweeted yesterday he committed to Youngstown State. Obviously he received an offer from one of the coaches somewhere along the line.

Kid won't see the field.

I don't see him playing at MLB, that's for sure. If this is the first Pelini recruit, I'm worried. The 3 kids for Wolf are all solid.

Being not a single recruiting website shows any new offers since Pelini took over, I'm not quite sure this is a Pelini recruit. Could very well be a kid we offered under Wolf who didn't get the offers he would have hoped so committed to us. Also worth noting Wolf's assistants have been still recruiting even since Pelini was hired.

kid is a dog on tape.  Unless hes a preferred walk-on, whatever strength coach Pelini YSU has in the fall spring better be a miracle worker.

Ryan Emans 6"1 180 WR Bowling Green H.S. committed to the penguins in early November. Only other offer was Morehead st.- Highlights available on Scouting ohio and Hudl.

This kid is not a strong recruit. Recruiting is not looking good.

Found out YSU setting up meeting with all 5 Hubbard Seniors to make offers if any may change there minds with there current offers.  Its a good group maybe if they can get one or 2 would be a big boost to the program.

Qb Nathan Mays from Urbana I think says YSU has offered him.

Yes, Montgomery offered him last year as a Junior. He had a good senior year and a record-setting HS career. Typical Montgomery QB ...if he was about 3-inches taller, we never would have gotten him. Not seeing where he had any bigger offers this year. Average almost 43-ypp as the teams punter. He run much more this past year. Typical concerns about a lack of upper-division play. (Urbana is D4)

I don't know ....video looks real good. I know that it is only highlights, but something is there. I also like that RB/QB from Shaker Heights; I hope he commits. Zinni looks good as well and he committed.
