I hope books aren't an issue here. Have a shot at a very rare athlete if he's a take.

Probably should have done a profile on this young man. Craig Young is going to be an absolute star at whatever he chooses.

He's 6-5 205. Can run sub 11 sec 100M. Averages 18 & 9 on the basketball team. Had 450 yds receiving last year and had a KRTD too.

Coming to Irish Invasion. I think his future is football.

Ran the overall fastest 100m at the state meet yesterday in prelims - 10.63. Tweaked his hammy in the 200m prelims and that was that for his meet. Scheduled to be at Invasion next weekend. Wonder if he'll be able to compete now? Will that stop him from getting an offer?

The sites had very good things to say about him from Irish Invasion

I'll can give you 10.63 reasons why they should love him...

 

[ab2cmiller]

Dre Muhammad from AWP said “Right now, he is probably more athletic than any player we have ever had,” stated Muhammad. “You have to think he is a sophomore, running 10.6 and has vertical skills. Where he currently stands, he is one of the best athletes to ever come through Fort Wayne.”

[BeauBenken]

If he can work on his hands and the finer points of being a receiver, the sky is the limit for the young man.

He was blowing by guys at II and he's a legit 6'4"/6'5" guy.

 

[OCIrish]

Unfortunately, he goes to Wayne, and that could eventually be an academic hurdle for us. Have to wait and see

 

[GBdomer]

How about OLB?

 

[Veritate Duce Progredi]

How about OLB?

Sure, he and Claypool would be great at OLB.

Yep, if he were at Dwenger or Luers it wouldn't be a concern.

do either offer schollys to local kids?

Luers does. Don't know about Dwenger.

 

[OCIrish]

Yes, they both offer full rides, although they call it something else. Dwenger has done it for years, as has Luers.

 

[zelezo vlk]

Per ISD, will be in town this weekend.

 

[BobbyMac]

Loy with CB to the Hoosiers a few days ago.

A new strategy?

Word was he might not be a fit. That's too bad. Huge upside athletically. I'm hoping ND still has a chance. 6-3.5, 10.6/100m Jr's don't grow on trees.

Wiltfong with a CB to Wiscy.

If this kid puts it together, watch out. Physical skillset is of the charts, wish the entire pkg was too.

Wiltfong with a CB to Wiscy.

Flipping in 3-2-1

 

[BobbyMac]

Wiltfong and Trieu had CB'd him long ago to Wisconsin but Wiscy analyst Evan Flood CB'd him to OSU today.

I'm not a "Build a wall around Indiana" guy but I'd be bummed if he, David Bell and Austin Bell all ended up in Columbus.

Bell isn’t going to OSU, no room and will probably end up playing hoops and football.

I think Young could grow into a hell of an OLB

No room? They don't have a WR committed for '19 (?)

Hopefully he likes what Brohm and Painter are packaging like Wiltfong thinks. I'd much rather see him in W Lafayette wearing Old Gold & Black

 

[ab2cmiller]

Six CB's for pOSU this afternoon including Wiltfong and Bill Greene.
