Jylton Tusha
Dominick Covatto
TJ Robinson
Kris Leach
Antonio Howard
Juan Watkins

Kyle Bolden. Given the development #51, #33, #32, and #38 have recently displayed, I would love to see what this staff could achieve with Mr Bolden an athlete who according to 247 would begin way ahead of where our current outstanding LBs were when they arrived.

I believe Bolden would flourish here. He would have great linebackers to lead the way. I see a two-time ALL MAC player and if he works as hard as he can could be a future All-American. He has all the tools, he would just need to bulk up. With fim and Covatto would be coming in together hopefully, I believe they could help anchor defense for years to come.

Man, we could sure use Leach. TJ Robinson went to the same school as Hagan, maybe he will want to come here and play with a former teammate and have similar success. He has great football speed and explodes through the ball carrier. He is a hitter, just like Hagan.

Ohio has historically had a high rate of recruiting success if they can actually get the players to visit. I predict they get at least a couple of these.

Athletic department and/or student body should have something to welcome the recruits to Athens at the EMU-Ohio basketball game, assuming they will be in the Convo for the game.

They should have them step out in the court at a timeout. Let the Fans give them a big ovation. Let them know how much they are wanted in the Green & white!

Before or after he signed his LOI? Would make a difference in the eyes of NCAA, I would think.

Stop making up regulations, we need to get innovative. We are not violating by announcing potential football recruits. Don't you see our commits wearing Ohio jerseys in pics before they sign. Didn't you read the article earlier on our class.

If we steal this guy it will be a coup:

Former 3-star commit to Marshall in 2015. Could have been a true freshman starter but redshirted. Withdrew last year and did a year at JUCO.

Jylton looks like he is ready to play this weekend lol. He has some guns. He could be a potential starter at tackle next year.
