He also excelled as a punter and kickoff specialist…….As a sophomore he had 31 receptions for 538 yards and 5 scores……Plays for one of the top talent-producers in the Columbus area (think Brady Quinn)……Was impressive at the 2007 U.S. Army Combine, earning Second Team All-Combine honors after running a 4.53 forty and 4.37 shuttle……Has the athleticism (a very fine hurdler in track), speed and quicks to be a possession WR and the frame that could easily fill out to be a TE……Has very soft hands and ball skills……..3.5 GPA........As of mid-January he had offers from Iowa and Clemson.

BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 The Dublin-Notre Dame connection seems too perfect. If NU can get more production out of the TEs this year then maybe we can sway him in our direction. Quote Link to comment
Ohio Pete Posted March 4, 2007 Share Posted March 4, 2007 Guys on Buckeye Planet seem to think he might be WR prospect. Apparently, the time is from a camp or combine for Juniors implying it's pretty fast. Here's an interview they did with him: Straight 6 with Jake Stoneburner Also, there are several top TE recruits in Ohio for '08. Maybe Rudolph can help pull one of them. I don't imagine Ohio State will take 4 of them. Quote Link to comment
