Mike McCray chooses SCUM

  • ohiost83 said...

    Where's the last few national title winners? Alabama, Auburn, LSU, Florida, and USC? Ah, no interest. Outside of Oklahoma, who choked again last year, none of those teams above are elite in the last decade, and that includes Michigan. Go check Anzalones offer list, who will be a Buckeye. LSU, Bama, USC, Florida, Auburn, Oklahoma and those types in his 30 plus. Love, whos in at LB for OSU, just has to make it official. USC, Oklahoma, Nebraksa and other elites. You are right, McCray's offer list is pretty good, not elite, that is what Urban Meyer saw on film and did not offer. He is good, certainly not elite. Go run out in the street and make sure you hit a car, do this board a favor.


    Rivals .com has him ranked as high as Jalin Marshall (one of the 2 largest recruiting sites) Jalin #41 McCray #44 overall you would Jalin elite
    Rivals has McCray #3 in Ohio Scout has him #5 in Ohio

    Who gives a crap about the size of Rivals, stick to this site. On this site, Kimbrough is top 100 and way higher than McCray.
    Kimbrough is not that far from moving into Rivals top 100 either and that will change a lot. Once he gets his academics in toe, he gets his OSU offer and is a Buckeye. Kimbrough's offers from schools like Florida are better as well.
    McCray is #5 on the Buckeyegrove latest Ohio top 75 for Ohio kids for Rivals, once again you are a clown.
    Rumors are this, rumors are that, fact is you are a clown.

    247 is a site based off ESPN "word of mouth" ! 247 rankings are based on what they think or hear from other sites.. Rivals and Scout have 3500+ ACTUAL SCOUTS going to games,practices,workout...etc
    yes ESPN has scouts but its WELL KNOWN they only attend camps and all-star type games they dont ever see the kids actually play full games

    I could care less about Shane Morris, he is a camp warrior ranked kid, go check bust like Jake Heap and those types as of late, Morris is right there. His HS numbers last year against horrible Michigan talent is laughable. I have been in that area and seen LaSalle, Cass Tech and OLSM, inferior HS football with little competition.
    Cass Tech kids are in large part bust, they never pan out. Same with OLSM, Dionte Allen, Washington, Bolden it goes on.
    Morris did not have anything more than Cincy or MSU for a reason, he is good enough to sale the programs that chase elite drop back QB's like him to NLOI like USC for example.
    Marshall had Notre Dame, Miami (this site missed that offer), Tennessee, UCLA and some regional BCS schools, Morris had nothing that close that early for a reason.
    You can have the two Detoit kids that you won out with offers from Central Michigan and Toledo, that is real impressive as well.

    I could care less about Shane Morris, he is a camp warrior ranked kid, go check bust like Jake Heap and those types as of late, Morris is right there. His HS numbers last year against horrible Michigan talent is laughable. I have been in that area and seen LaSalle, Cass Tech and OLSM, inferior HS football with little competition. Cass Tech kids are in large part bust, they never pan out. Same with OLSM, Dionte Allen, Washington, Bolden it goes on. Morris did not have anything more than Cincy or MSU for a reason, he is good enough to sale the programs that chase elite drop back QB's like him to NLOI like USC for example. Marshall had Notre Dame, Miami (this site missed that offer), Tennessee, UCLA and some regional BCS schools, Morris had nothing that close that early for a reason. You can have the two Detoit kids that you won out with offers from Central Michigan and Toledo, that is real impressive as well.

    Cass Tech OLSM were both ranked in Max Prep top 100 (27 and 61) add Detroit CC # 81 thats 3 schools in his DIVISION ranked in the top 81 in AMERICA yeah he doesnt face good teams...Most scouts say Shane Morris could play in the NFL his Soph year in high school yep he sucks...
    Shane said he was going to Michigan in 7th grade teams didnt offer after that. John Gruden (ESPN) said hes the best high school QB he's seen and if you know anything about Gruden that is about the highest praise a kid can get

    said to be Scout.coms # 1 ranked player (official list in 2 weeks) but he is one of 8 --5-Star kids and with no real offers from others BCS schools kid must be pretty good..name another kid thats ranked that high without the offer sheet?
    ps Auburn Oklahoma Florida St and Michigan St all offered him this past week,

    plus Shane Morris could be the best recruiter in college including coaches.he has brought 4-5 kids to Michigan ..he said 10 days ago McCray was a Wolverine he was with Kalis when he jumped to Michigan,his latest tweet says we will land 2 more Saturday (most say Ty Issiac and Ben Gedeon)

    No way you guys land Gedeon, sorry. He is an instate kid with an offer from OSU. Gedeon is buckeye bound. And out of Love. Gedeon, Smith, and Anzalone, we will land 3 out the 4.

    McCray is a nice pickup, but in the end, our class of LBers will be much better than yours.

    check out Shane Morris and Jalin Marshall offer sheet they dont have all the "elite" schools offering but EVERY school in America wants them check out the "keep McCray in Ohio " post on this board most OSU fans realize he is a very good player.hes ranked 168 on 247 without attending 1 camp thats very rare .

    why do you feel that you must defend your recruits? He didn't get an OSU offer, we could care less, let him prove us wrong in 3 years. Not sure why the scUM fans feel so compelled to defend their class here. Personally I could care less if the scUM fan base likes OSU recruits or not.

    i will NEVER understand the thinking of most Buckeyes.What happens if OSU doesnt land these kids,they are being recruited by every team in America.Losing HIGHLY ranked kids in your own back yard,(that understand the rivalry is just strange).McCray is perfect for any scheme 6'2 233 (and he will put on 10-20 LBs ) he will play WLB on 1-2 downs and edge rusher on 3rd and long.
    dont know why people think he is undersized

    Clay Matthews 6'2 252
    James Harrison 6'0 242
    Lamar Woodley 6'2 261
    Von Miller 6'3 239

    All Linebackers that line up at LB and DE probably the 4 best pass rushers in the game,none have blazing speed for LB but have ELITE speed for DE

    Go sign up for a VIP membership and maybe some of these things will make more sense. Good info

    I'm sure through all your great relations with the coaching staff and numerous hours spent watching film. Give me a break. Just saying Ohio guys that are passed on by Ohio State are hungrier.

    I don't have to know the staff to know that they think other LB'ers are better, and he wasn't worthy of an offer w/o coming to camp. Is that so hard to figure out? If we worry about every kid from OH that goes away, that we later play, I guess we'll be pissing our pants every week. I remember plenty of OH kids that went to scUM that never lived up to their ranking. You're worrying about kids that are still in HS Chicken Little.

  • I went to youtube and looked at McCray's highlights and also Courtney Love's highlights. Based on watching a 3 minute highlight reel, its clear Love is a better player. Love is a beast!! McCray is ranked higher by the recruiting services, but we are going to get the better player in Love. Jokes on you scUM.

    We will also get a few OOS guys that are better than McCray also. It does hurt a little seeing a top 10 Ohio kid go to scUM, but we will be just fine at LB.

  • Another thing I will mention to scUM fans. I wouldn't get to cozy with McCray. It's clear he wants to be a buckeye. And if he ends up coming to OSU's camp, and getting an OSU offer, he will switch. The OSU staff is not sold on McCray, but if at some point they are, he will be a Buckeye. Meyer will get him to flip faster than you fat scUM bastards flip your morning pancakes. Sorry for my belittling tone, but I really hate all of you scUM fans. You all suck ass. All of you.

    First of all, he will not visit OSU while he is committed to UM. Second of all, we don't really care if he eventually flips to OSU. We'll just take Levenberry, Gedeon, and Dorian O'Daniel. Most UM fans would rather have those three anyway. So what's your point? shrug

    UMGoBlue

  • UMGoBlue-

    Your post demonstrates how little you know about recruiting. I've been following recruiting for 10+ years, so please do not insult me with your dumb ass post. Kids that are committed to a school take visits and attend camps of a different school all the time. Visitation trips are fun, and often kids go on as many as possible. And you can bet if Urban makes the call, McCray will be on OSU's campus faster than a scUM fan can form a complete thought.

    It's obvious your coaching staff is completely sold on McCray, because if they really wanted other kids, they would have slow played McCray. So don't act like McCray is really your plan B. Hes your plan A and our plan B.

    If the Bucks come calling, McCray is a buckeye.
