McReynolds drawing interest from Ducks

Posted by JC Shurburtt
Oregon is the latest school to show strong interest in Class of 2011 ESPNU 150 Watch List defensive tackle Kevin McReynolds (Washington, D.C./St. John's College).

"They told me they are going to offer me, but they have to come out here and see me and make sure I pass the eyeball test," McReynolds said. "They are a great school. They are constantly playing for championships and are doing so this year."

Last month, the 6-foot-3, 274-pounder got the opportunity to check out Penn State unofficially, going into town for the Nittany Lions' home game with Ohio State.

"It was a nice game," he said. "We had three seats on the 50-yard line. I got to meet Joe Paterno and (Penn State) assistant Larry Johnson recruits my area and came by my school the other day. I really like coach Johnson. He's a down-to-earth guy and real cool."

Maryland, North Carolina, Kansas State, New Mexico and UTEP have offered McReynolds a scholarship. He was happy about the Terrapins' recent decision to retain head coach Ralph Freidgen and staff.

"I definitely think it's a good move," he said. "They have a lot of young players and a lot of schools like to say they are rebuilding, but they are actually rebuilding, you know. They have been going bowling the last 6-7 years, so this was the only real bad year they've had."

Planning a visit this summer (July), and the good news is that the team who he's been really high on, Ohio State, is no longer recruiting him because they have filled up their D-line positions.

They just landed:

This is good news.

“There were certain schools I was comfortable with,” McReynolds said. “Ohio State was one of them. Oregon is the other one. I had decided to take official visits to those two, but I won’t be visiting Ohio State now.”

Sounds good to me.

That's got to suck hearing it from Tressel's secretary instead of Tressel himself; I feel bad for the kid. But he'll be happier in the long run when he comes to Oregon!

Let's hope that he can possibly get over being so far from home.

I know there's still a lot of time and anything can happen and I may be reading too much into it, but that sounds a lot like it was them or us.

Only problem with that theory is a third school like Florida stepping in at the last minute.

Remember, Florida didn't have room for Dominique Easley either.

McReynolds is not on Easley's level, and tOSU has 5 linemen right now that are the same or are better talent than McReynolds.

Unless one of those linemen decommits from tOSU or they lose some Dline players on their team, I'm pretty confident they won't ever be a factor.

Of course, at this time last year Easley wasn't at Easley's level. Didn't he blow up late in the season and then dominate at the All American games to earn the Florida offer?

McReynolds tweeted today that tOSU would keep a scholie open for him.

[nehalem]

Well of course he did.

I should have said "of course they did."

Lol fail, which is why you never believe secretaries.
