YoloinOhio Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Many years ago ohio state recruited doug worthington out of st francis. The story was that our HC at the time, Jim Tressel, was college roommates with ilios dipaolos son. He would come to buffalo sometimes and ended up at a couple st francis games. There was also a kicker from canisius that came to osu a few years ago. I cant remember his name but he was the #1 HS kicker in the country at the time. Paul woods out of canisius was highly recruited but I believe ended up at Rutgers 3 hours ago, MikePJ76 said: Former saints and patriots end Will Smith went to my high school in Utica.

YoloinOhio Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago (edited) 5 hours ago, Buffalo716 said: Considering New York state is barely borderline a top 25-30 HS football state And buffalo hasn't had a four-star prospect in years this is not a small feat Even our top players like gronkowski went to Pennsylvania to finish their career We don't have a lot of 4* guys in Buffalo who stay their entire high School career I feel like that’s the story more and more with kids in states that don’t have spring football. The south and west coast just dominate recruiting. Even the freshman RB Bo Jackson that we have now at OSU; he’s from Cleveland and that was actually surprising. Most of our skill players are from Texas, Florida, Cali 4 minutes ago, Buffalo716 said: Blake haubel He started like 2 years at Ohio state Yes! Wow that name was in an archive somewhere in my brain. He was pretty good. But I think he got injured Edited 5 hours ago by YoloinOhio 1 Quote

A 4 star top 15 ranked running back nationally with offers from Ohio State and Michigan and Georgia and basically everybody Been watching in the last 3 years and this kid is showing that big time players can come out of Western New York without transferring to a ohio or Pennsylvania school Good luck in the playoffs canisius!

He is City born and raised Was at tapestry charter in the city before canisius... He was already a star in the making before his freshman year at canisius He could have went to any private school in the area or left the state but he wanted to stay home and build a legacy And canisius has a track record of getting kids to FBS schools recently Edited 2 hours ago by Buffalo716 Quote
