HS football players are trying to get in those last camps in July. There comes a time, when TEAM MUST COME FIRST. These colleges know all about you. If they have not offered by now, they are waiting on the 1st 3 games. A knee injury or foot. Separated shoulder? Face reality.

Not only today do we recognize our freedoms, but everyday take a moment to realize how fortunate we are to live in America.

Enjoyed watching some 7o7 at Mansfield Senior this morning. A lot of young talent. Mansfield Senior, Springfield, Glenville, GlenOak, Walnut Ridge, Eastmoor, and Ashland Crestview were some of the teams competing.

Over the years, I have made friends with many high school football coaches throughout Ohio. I respect Mo Douglas a lot as a person and a coach. Probably, does not get the credit that he deserves. We joke with each other, and be serious, as well. A very good friend.

Had a few extra minutes in Findlay yesterday. Had not seen the new practice facility. Impressive. Head Coach Kory Allen is continuing the "tradition of Oiler football."

One of my biggest concerns with posting HUDL hi-lites.

So important for high school athletes to be of good character. It was one of the evals I told college football coaches. Competitive Maturity.

Always like talking with Chris Henry Jr. Here a 9th grader. A year older and bigger/stronger(L). The media pressure on these athletes is sad. And it will continue to get worse. Guys, like me, just need to adjust. Still enjoy them. Chris will be amazing.

Since I was the first to evaluate Tavien St Clair, evaluating , Reign (28), is important. Listed 6'0-165, he plays J-V. Good release. Stands tall. Good velocity. Needs to get feet more involved. Only a 9th grader, but just like Tavien did, he needs to get stronger. Like potential

OL Jayden Clark Northmont missed all of last year. Too heavy 6'4- 305. Powerful. Can bend some. Gets off ball. Physical. Guard - next level. Blocks 2nd level. Solid on pass pro. Looks good for missing junior year. Weight issue for me. Potential to be the best MSROL in 2025 Class.

Joe Wyant - my first assistant hired at Lakota (NW Ohio) in the early 80's. The current head coach at Gibsonburg HS. Mellowed s one of the top coaches in Ohio. Getting "a little long in the tooth," and last winter had open heart surgery people. Enjoyed visiting with my old coach

OL guys and other recruits- go where you can be developed. AJ Arcuri (Olentangy Liberty) Mich St played last night for the LA Rams. 7th round. 6'7-306. Had other offers, but no Mich, OSU, ALA. Go where you can play and get developed. Really proud of him. He is in the NFL.
