I'm interpreting this tweet to mean that 2015 OLB prospect London Cloud from Bedford HS has committed to Ohio. The 6-foot, 210-pounder also held offers from BG and Toledo.



 

LONDON CLOUD IM SO HAPPY WITH YOUR DECISION ON GOING TO THE BEST OHIO UNIVERSITY.....LET'S GO FROM BEARCAT TO BOBCAT!!!!!

I'd say thats a safe bet. This was his next tweet:
"If you didn't go to OHIO UNIVERSITY... YOU JUST WENT TO SCHOOL... OU IS A LIFESTYLE..."

Turns out, that head coach is an alum. Apparently he played CB for us back in the day, and had a short NFL career.

ESPN page projects him as in ILB, 6'0", 229, 4.83 fourty
Scout.com calls him 3 stars, #46 OLB in the country
247 page
has him at ILB
Rivals also has him at ILB

Cloud's hudl page
. He also playes RB, and a even a little bit of wildcat QB. He's a solid tackler, and people will feel it. I can see him ending up at ILB or OlB. He looks faster than the 4.83 listed at ESPN.


Ohio also had an offer out to a Bedford DE, Marquise Copeland, but Copeland has committed to Cincinnati.

247 has him at a more believable 207 lbs. His height has been shown from 5'11" to 6'1" Bottom line is he seems to fit the Bobcat mold. Tough and faster with pads on.

I don't recall Ohio recruiting the Lake Erie League very much. The only player I can think of that they have taken from there was #62, Marcellis Williamson, who was from Warrensville Heights. Maybe they should look at some other players from that league? How about Mario Patton from Cleveland Heights, 6'3, 292 5.07, DT, who has offers from BG and Minnesota? He could become a force to occupy the middle.

I've heard Ohio's name come up in Cleveland-Akron kids way more these last two years than earlier on in Frank's tenure in Athens. I am excited.

Well, if Big 5 conference recruits are going to be be able to earn an additional $2,000 per year in stipends as they have talked about, so much for Ohio still being in the picture.

The natural choice is OHIO. Guys who have 'OU' in their last name have a history of playing and making a mark in their freshman year.
