Most of my thoughts are not original but my evaluations are. According to Scoutingohio.com, which I visit often to look at ohio's best talent, Michigan's latest recruit Jaron Dukes is ranked somewhere around 23rd in the state. Now the top ranked player will probably be CB and ohio recruit Cam Burrows from Trotwood. Now here is my tiff. Last time Dukes and Burrows matched up against each other when Marion Franklin faced Trotwood, Dukes had 6 receptions for 173 yds and two TD's. Burrows could not deal with him, plain and simple. Burrows is supposively 6'2" 180 lbs, I stood right next to him and I predict 6'0" - 6'1" tops, maybe 175lbs. I am not saying Burrows is a bum by any means, he had an impressive offer list before commiting to ohio. Scoutingohio is somewhat of a homer site to say the least.
Before the rankings come out of their top ten players in the state, I will give you their top two before it happens. 1. Burrows 2. Jalin Marshall, both ohio commits. Last years rankings at the end of the season had 8 of the top ten as ohio commits and NO.1 being OLB, Josh Perry. Now if you watch highlights of Perry you see potential but far from a polished LB and definitely not the top player in the state. Putting him in front of Bolden is somewhat amusing, go look at the highlights, Perry's not even in the same building as Bolden. They also ranked Dodson and Decker higher than Kalis, resentment possibly? A matter a fact, Decker is ranked higher than both Dodson and Kalis and he is the least impressive of the three. Adolphus Washington was 11th and should have been no.1, and he is an ohio recruit, what gives? How about Frank Epitropolous from Arlington in Columbus? A top 20 player? Hysterical. Get it together or higher me to do your evaluations.
By the way, here is Jaron Dukes highlights. Look for Burrows to be worked by the Michigan commitment in a couple of these babies. Trotwood wheres the ram looking helmets.
